Is masturbating without releasing actually damaging your

testicles? And if you're taking a daily pill like Cialis after

40, are you secretly making your ED worse in the long run? Today

we're talking about the warning signs your body is sending you

down there. From unexplained pain to the long-term side

effects of ED meds that nobody talks about, like hearing and

vision loss. Plus, I'll reveal why fixing your erections is

actually a lot simpler than you think, and why your body wants

to do it naturally. Let's get into it.

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

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

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

do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how

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

started, and be sure to visit my website at

sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more information and

resources from the show. See you on the inside.

"One thing I noticed that if I masturbate and don't release,

and if I repeat it like two out of three times, I see the

testicle area is wire painting. Feel that the testicle is

painful. Is it harmful?" You masturbate and you don't

release. Well, I'm not quite sure what question entails. So,

if you masturbate, you don't release. It shouldn't really

affect the testicles, and it shouldn't really cause any pain

to the testicle. I mean, a lot of men do not ejaculate with

orgasm, so that shouldn't be painful to your testicles.

Unless there are other things going on organically in your

testicle. So if your testicle is painful, you need to go see a

urologist, and you need to get ultrasound that testicle to see

if there's any type of blockage or any type of hydro seal. If

they're painting you, you need to find out that the structure

is okay. Sometimes it could be a plaque, sometimes it could be a

swelling in the testicle. But holding on to that ejaculation

shouldn't be painful to the testicle, all right. Lots of men

do that. My advice is, you go see your urologist and get some

imaging study done, because one thing you should not do, guys,

is that if your testicle is painful, don't sit on it. You

need to get evaluated, because it could be a clot, it could be

a cyst, it could be an infection, it could be cancer.

So all that can be evaluated through an ultrasound, and

sometimes maybe even the CT scan. But need to get evaluated.

If you don't, then you never know what's happening. Don't try

to treat it on your own, because if it's painful and it lingers,

it doesn't go away. You need to get it evaluated. Okay?

There's a question here about Cialis. "Is there any issue

taking Cialis at the low dose daily for a long period of time,

and definitely after the age of 40 in long-term studies?" Well,

why are you taking Cialis? Are you taking Cialis for ED? When

you say low dose, it's between 5 milligrams or 10 milligrams.

Every medication has the side effects. In fact, one of the

side effects of PDE-5 inhibitors, or medication like

Cialis and Viagra, you can have hearing loss, you can have

visual loss. Those are like the long-term side effects. It's the

thing that is common, hearing loss and visual loss. So you

have to consider the long-term side effects versus the benefit.

So, if you're taking Cialis low dose, you're taking it for

erection, but maybe you need to be looking at why you have ED,

and maybe is it a blood flow problem. Then, if it's a blood

flow problem, then you need to fix your diet and your exercise

and moderate your alcohol, stop smoking, and a good sleep

routine. Because medication does has a side effect. So if you

have ED, you want to work on the root cause of why you have ED.

And so there are definitely long-term side effects, hearing

loss and visual loss as well. So medication like Cialis or Viagra

should be taken as needed. However, I know that some men

take Cialis for prostate issues as well at low dose. So there

are some benefits, but if you can work at resolving the root

cause of your ED, you may not need to be on medication. Who

wants to take medication for long term every day? Because

your body don't need medication to have an erection when you are

younger. Why do your body need it now? If you need it now,

because it needs to be nurtured, it needs to be restored for it

to function properly. Every medication has a side effect

that you take it long term. But if you can restore your erection

with just treating the root cause, then you will not need

Cialis. So that comes along with that answer for that. Low dose,

even 2.5 milligrams, it's still a medication. Now just know that

when you take a medication, guys, it's something foreign in

the body. Medication is synthetic made, it's made in the

lab, so it's not made at the same component as organic stuff

that's in your body. And so anything that is non-organic or

anything that is synthetic, your body is going to react to it.

It's going to see it as a foreign substance in the body,

and it's going to react to it. So medication itself is not good

for your body, but the reason why we take medication is to

control the adverse effect of a condition that causes it. But if

you have a way to not take the medication, then that's the

better option, not to take the medication. Because if you take

the medication, you're gonna have to face with the side

effects of the medication on top of the benefit of the

medication. If you know what I'm talking about. Okay? So just be

aware of that. I'm not a big medication person at this time,

and I believe in that if you can treat the root cause of the

problem, then you don't need a medication for your body to

function.

Now, for a man to have an erection is really a natural

process. It's built into your body to have an erection. It's

like blinking, like blinking your eye. So it's built into

your body to have an erection since puberty, and it is one of

the oldest bodily functions for a human being. And in fact, your

brain has a dedicated center just for sexual function, and it

centered in the center between your ears and your eyes. It's

the deepest part of your brain, is the oldest part of your brain

that even salamander has this as well. So, where I'm getting at

this is that for a man to get an erection is innate part, it's a

primitive part of your body to be able to do this, and it's a

natural response. So, when something that is natural that

is built for you to work properly, when it's not working,

you need to fix that. You need to fix the why it's not working,

because your body is geared toward making it work. And so

your body wants you to have an erection, but if you're not

having it, then you need to find out why and fix that problem for

it to function again. As its basic, human beings are geared

towards reproduction, appropriation to continue the

human line, and your reaction is one of the most primitive

pathway for survival. And when it's not working, your body is

saying, "Hey, fix this, because there's something wrong." Your

body is giving you a warning sign there's something wrong,

something wrong that's going to affect your heart later on, it's

going to affect your brain later on, and so your body is saying

something's wrong, fix this. But you don't want to like take

another medication to cover it up, but if you cover it up, the

problem is only going to get worse. If you take ED medicine,

your ED is only going to get worse, it's not going to resolve

your ED. It's just a band aid for now. So just know that your

body wants you to have an erection, and you just need to

help it restore balance again. And oftentimes it's just as

simple as changing your diet, eating more healthy, like just

follow the Mediterranean diet. Mediterranean diet is

essentially just eat more vegetables, more fruit, lean

meat. Don't eat anything in a can or a bag. That's really it.

And then exercise, so what's exercise? Like walking 7000

steps a day, or 30 minutes a day, and walking up and down the

stairs, and doing squat three, four times a week. And if you

mind what you eat, and if you just do too simple exercise, you

will not gain weight. You will not gain weight. If you eat

healthy, you will not gain weight. It's when we don't

exercise and we start sitting there munching on chips. The

earth doesn't grow chips, the earth doesn't grow cookies,

earth doesn't grow cake or cereal.

Okay, Modern Man. If you're struggling with weak erection,

low energy, the food you eat could be the big part of the

problem. One of the best research pathways to boost

circulation, support healthy testosterone and improve sexual

performance is the Mediterranean diet. It's packed with food that

open up your blood vessel, lower inflammation, and fuel your

hormone, naturally. I've seen men notice real improvement in

both energy and erection within weeks when they shift to this

style of eating. So check out the Mediterranean diet link

right here below, and get that as soon as you can. Stronger

testosterone and better erection.

So you just feed your body. Body with the healthy component, and

it will start functioning again. Sometimes it's as easy as just

the diet and the exercise, getting adequate amount of sleep

at night, and stop doing stuff that is causing inflammation,

such as smoking and drinking too much alcohol, and can't stop

stress. Stress is going to be there, but moderate it. You can

moderate it. One of my coach says, I never thought about it

ways that stress is a perception, not a situation.

It's the perception stresses in your thought. It is in your

thought. So, if you get stressed about something, it's in your

thought. Now, if you were facing danger, physical danger, and

that's a different situation. But if it's not a physical

danger, then stress is really a perception. All right, just know

that fixing your erection may be easier than you think. Believe

it or not, sometimes when it's too easy, we don't believe it,

right? But take it from me, I work with more than 7000 men

with ED, and sometimes if the man just changed his diet, start

exercising, or start losing the weight, you will see the

testosterone level go up, and he's gonna start seeing more

morning wood again. And so I have seen it happen multiple

times, and trust me, I'm talking from experience, and sometimes

it's that simple. It does take work, eating healthy and

exercise, and all that take time away, take work from us,

especially nowadays. Essentially, guys, it's really,

you have a plate, fill it with either fish, chicken, pork, and

red meat, but just alternate it. Don't eat red meat every day,

alternate it with fish and chicken and pork, so that's half

of your plate. And the other half should be fruits and

vegetables. Any fruit, any vegetables, just fruit and

vegetables. Just eat what the earth grows for you, eat what

the earth gives you. Earth doesn't give you soda, earth

doesn't give you alcohol either. Alcohol is man made, right? So

if you just think of the plate like that, then makes everything

easier, you can eat a sandwich, it's okay, bread, you can't eat

a sandwich a day, or two slices a day, that's good. And for

dessert, eat fruit, sometimes that's really all you need. In

fact, you may even save more money if you follow that plan.

So it will give you more energy when you eat more healthy.

Because if you give your body what it needs, it will reward

you. It will reward you with more energy, weight loss, and

better sleep as well.
