Erectile Dysfunction and Does Size Matter? Understanding the Penis with Dr Aaron Spitz

40% of men suffer from erectile dysfunction in their 40’s, 50% in
their 50’s, 60% in their 60’s… it’s an easy stat to remember! A
lot of this is due to age-related changes however "some
of this we can control and put on the breaks…”


 


This week's episode is for anyone with a penis, any friends of
penises, and any lovers of penises! An area that is not talked
about enough, and yet viagra had some of the fastest uptake and
sales growth of any medication, ever, after its launch in
1998. 


We were delighted to speak with Aaron Spitz, M.D a
board-certified urologist and a leading expert in male sexual
health and fertility. Who has been featured worldwide on numerous
tv shows, published many articles on the subject and now is the
author of the book called The Penis Book: A Doctor’s
Complete Guide to the Penis: From Size to Function and Everything
in Between


Just like the canary in the coal mine, ED can be
the first sign of something much more major going on in your
body. “If a man starts noticing he is getting weak
erections or having difficulty keeping erections that most likely
means the little arteries in his penis are starting to get
clogged up, which means all the arteries in his body are getting
clogged up, it’s just the arteries in his penis are much smaller
so he is not feeling it everywhere else…yet!”


Dr Aaron has helped countless men overcome these challenges,
including erectile dysfunction, low testosterone, Peyronie’s
Disease, and low sperm count. He is a nationally recognised
leader in microsurgical vasectomy reversal. Dr. Spitz is able to
demystify these complex and emotional conditions for his patients
as well as for the public at large. Dr. Spitz served as Assistant
Clinical Professor of Urology, UC Irvine for 10 years, where he
oversaw their training for male sexual health and
infertility. 


Dr. Spitz is a national leader in health policy for urologists
across the nation. He serves as the lead delegate representing
all of America’s urologists to the American Medical Association
(AMA). He also is in charge of pioneering the use of telemedicine
for America’s urologists. He frequently meets with state and
national legislators about topics of critical concern to doctors
and patients alike.


As two penis owners naturally we found this a fascinating
conversation. However, as Dr Aaron says, this is something that
affects everyone, whether it be directly or through association.
The more we understand, the more knowledge we have the more we
can prevent premature ED and potentially much more serious and
life-threatening illnesses.
