Transcripts

Speaker:

A normal prostate is about the size of a walnut, but what

Speaker:

happens when it swells to 212 grams, over six times its normal

Speaker:

size? Sure, TURP surgery will help you pee again, but it

Speaker:

completely ignores the root cause. If you want to actually

Speaker:

shrink your prostate, boost your blood flow, and get your

Speaker:

erectile function back, a band aid fix won't cut it. Today, I'm

Speaker:

breaking down the exact diet, nitric oxide supplements, and

Speaker:

targeted therapies, including the specific probes and messages

Speaker:

from my store, that you need to fix the real problem. Let's get

Speaker:

into it.

Speaker:

This podcast is for you, the Modern Man. I'm Dr Anne Truong,

Speaker:

your host. I'm an intimate health medical doctor and best

Speaker:

selling author of the book, Erectile Dysfunction Fix. I'll

Speaker:

do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how

Speaker:

it affects men of all ages and backgrounds. So let's get

Speaker:

started, and be sure to visit my website at

Speaker:

sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more information and

Speaker:

resources from the show. See you on the inside.

Speaker:

I have an enlarged prostate with a volume of 212 grams. Now,

Speaker:

normal prostate volume is 30 grams. I've had a TURP, which

Speaker:

helped. TURP, it's called transurethral resection of the

Speaker:

prostate, which helped. Now, Viagra is not helping much

Speaker:

lately. All right, so I just actually did a video on how pill

Speaker:

does not help your ED. In fact, it's just a band aid, and

Speaker:

oftentimes pill does not help, especially men that had enlarged

Speaker:

prostate with TURP, because there's a reason why you have

Speaker:

enlarged prostate. Some of it's genetic, but prostate gets

Speaker:

inflamed. It gets enlarged because it's inflamed, and

Speaker:

what's causing it for inflammation? Could it be that

Speaker:

from your diet? Could it be from high cholesterol? Could it be

Speaker:

from low or too much testosterone? Either low

Speaker:

testosterone, too much testosterone, can irritate the

Speaker:

prostate as well, too.

Speaker:

So this is the bladder. This is the prostate. It sits behind the

Speaker:

pubic bone. This imagine your body cut in half. This is the

Speaker:

seminal vesicle where demon is stored. So the prostate should

Speaker:

be the size of a walnut of 30 grams. You're six times larger

Speaker:

than what normal size is. So when the prostate is enlarged,

Speaker:

it presses on your urethra, where you go pee, where you

Speaker:

urinate. Here's the urethra, and it goes through the penis, and

Speaker:

where you urinate, right? When it's like 200 grams, it's heavy.

Speaker:

It presses on the urethra. It also presses on the bladder as

Speaker:

well, too. That's why you have urgency. That's why sometimes

Speaker:

you have incomplete emptying of the urine, that's why you

Speaker:

require TURP. With TURP, if they go through your penis and they

Speaker:

And so now that you had a TURP, the TURP just fixes this here,

Speaker:

just shave off the prostate area that is compressing your

Speaker:

but it doesn't fix the whole enlargement of the prostate. So

Speaker:

there's probably some nerve compression there, and I don't

Speaker:

urethra. But when it's enlarged, the nerve that go to the penis

Speaker:

know whether you have high cholesterol, high blood

Speaker:

pressure, or maybe you smoke, or you may even have diabetes, all

Speaker:

here sits on top of the prostate here, the pudendal nerve. The

Speaker:

that contribute to ED as well. If you have that, then you need

Speaker:

to start the Mediterranean diet and exercise 30 minutes three to

Speaker:

nerve that goes to the penis, sits on top of the prostate. So,

Speaker:

four times a week to get your blood pressure under control,

Speaker:

your cholesterol under control, and your diabetes. So, men with

Speaker:

when the prostate is enlarged, that nerve gets compressed, like

Speaker:

diabetes are five to seven times more likely to get ED without

Speaker:

even an enlarged prostate. So, that's the reason why Viagra is

Speaker:

pressure compressed, so that indirectly affects the penis and

Speaker:

not helping, because Viagra does not affect the nerve. Viagra

Speaker:

only does, it just helps you increase nitric oxide in the

Speaker:

affect ED. So, the nerve that sits on top, right here that

Speaker:

penis muscle, that's how it helps with the erection. But if

Speaker:

you have an enlarged prostate, it's the nerve that's affected.

Speaker:

goes through the period, gets affected. So that's why enlarged

Speaker:

When the nerve is affected, then you need to work on decreasing

Speaker:

the size of this prostate. So there's one way you can decrease

Speaker:

prostate indirectly can affect erection.

Speaker:

the size of the prostate, is to use a prostate massager. You can

Speaker:

go to our store and get a prostate massager at Ed No

Speaker:

More.com Our store is where you can get the prostate massager.

Speaker:

But I also have a prostate probe that can also help decreasing

Speaker:

the size of the prostate. Okay? What it is, I did that one of my

Speaker:

videos where I talked about the vibrator that goes up, you put

Speaker:

that through the rectum and goes up to here and give infrared

Speaker:

heat to the prostate to help bring in more blood flow to

Speaker:

decrease the size of the prostate. So for the person that

Speaker:

asked me on the prostate right here, Kevin, is that the reason

Speaker:

why you have ED because the nerve is getting compressed, and

Speaker:

that sits on top of the prostate. You need to decrease

Speaker:

the size of the prostate, even though you have the TURP that

Speaker:

just relieving your symptoms of urination, but it doesn't

Speaker:

decrease the whole entire size of the prostate. The prostate

Speaker:

needs to be smaller. I mean, prostate normal size is 30

Speaker:

grams, you're 200, 6 times more than, and it's just pushing up

Speaker:

on the bladder, it's pushing up on the nerve here. So, email our

Speaker:

office, please. Email our office right here to get that prostate

Speaker:

machine that you can do at home, and I actually will give you a

Speaker:

video. I show you how to do it, how to insert that in. You do

Speaker:

that daily for about six weeks, you will see an improvement in

Speaker:

the size of your prostate. The first thing you're going to see

Speaker:

is your urination will also improve as well, too. So you

Speaker:

need to decrease the size of the prostate, and I assume it's not

Speaker:

prostate cancer, and you need to decrease the size of the

Speaker:

prostate, or for that way it doesn't affect your ED. And then

Speaker:

also start the Mediterranean diet, start exercising, because

Speaker:

factors that irritate your prostate are high sugar and high

Speaker:

cholesterol and high blood pressure, but all those factors

Speaker:

are also factors that contribute to ED as well, too. And also,

Speaker:

get your hormones checked. Low testosterone and high

Speaker:

testosterone will irritate your prostate, will make the prostate

Speaker:

higher. And then also get your DHT level, dihydrotestosterone

Speaker:

levels checked. You don't want that level to be high. When that

Speaker:

level is high, that's gonna irritate the prostate, make it

Speaker:

higher, especially it becomes high when men on testosterone

Speaker:

replacement therapy. You don't get frequent blood work, so when

Speaker:

you don't get frequent blood work, that level gets converted

Speaker:

from testosterone, and it may be high without you knowing about

Speaker:

it, and then your prostate gets enlarged, and you'll be in more

Speaker:

trouble than you want to be.

Speaker:

So, treat the prostate with the prostate massager, and then once

Speaker:

you treat the prostate, you would then notice improvement in

Speaker:

your symptoms and prop in your erection. I would advise you

Speaker:

also to do a penis pump as well. When you do a penis pump, you're

Speaker:

also exercising your penis, bringing more blood flow to the

Speaker:

penis until the prostate size decreases, and then rehabbing

Speaker:

the penis with the pump. I hope your urologist told you to use

Speaker:

the penis pump after the TURP, or whether you have a pump or

Speaker:

not. You can also get it at our store at ED No More.com So this

Speaker:

is a penis pump I recommend. It's electric penis pump, or you

Speaker:

can get manual penis pump that people like. Some people like

Speaker:

electric, depends on your preference. And I also recommend

Speaker:

you take nitric oxide. This nitric oxide here, you do this

Speaker:

30 minutes before you pump, and what it does, it help you get

Speaker:

more blood flow to the penis before you pump. This nitric

Speaker:

oxide is like unlike any other nitric oxide, because it's made

Speaker:

from arugula directly. Ao that means that when you take this,

Speaker:

it gives you nitric oxide directly, instead of if you're

Speaker:

going to take L-arginine, L-citrulline, your body still

Speaker:

has to convert it to nitric oxide. So it's kind of like it

Speaker:

bypass the step that your body has to make the nitric oxide.

Speaker:

When you take this nitric oxide, you get nitric oxide in your

Speaker:

body right away, but if you take other supplement that has

Speaker:

L-citrulline, L-arginine, when you take it, your body still has

Speaker:

to convert it to nitric oxide through an enzyme, however,

Speaker:

sometimes that enzyme after the age of 40 doesn't work. 50% of

Speaker:

people after the age of 40 do not have that nitric oxide

Speaker:

enzyme working, so you could just be wasting your time and

Speaker:

wasting your money by taking L-citrulline, L-arginine enzyme

Speaker:

in your body is not converting it to nitric oxide, you see what

Speaker:

I'm saying. So you're just gonna have a very expensive urine,

Speaker:

because your body will just pee iy out anyway. Versus the nitric

Speaker:

oxide that we have. When you take it, it gives you nitric

Speaker:

oxide, your body don't have to do anything to convert it. So, I

Speaker:

suggest you take two before you pump. You can take up to four a

Speaker:

day, however, don't take it more than four, because it does lower

Speaker:

your blood pressure somewhat as well, too. So I wanted to show

Speaker:

you the ingredients that we have here. And I thought that we also

Speaker:

prostate machine here too, but we won't have it back on again,

Speaker:

and just email my office, Kevin, at [email protected] and

Speaker:

we'll send you that machine. Okay?

Speaker:

So I hope that was helpful for you. So this is the email here,

Speaker:

all right.

Speaker:

Okay, Modern Man, you are not alone and you don't have to

Speaker:

Speaker:
