More importantly, you’ll discover what truly matters when it comes to attraction, satisfaction, and performance; straight from real-world insights, not myths.

If you’ve ever questioned where you stand or what really makes a difference, this conversation will challenge what you think you know. Tune in now to hear the full breakdown and finally get the clarity you’ve been looking for.

Transcripts

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:

Let me guess you've looked it up, you know, compared yourself

Speaker:

and wondered if you're below average. Here's the thing, 87%

Speaker:

of men think they're smaller than other guys, and most of

Speaker:

them are wrong. In this video, I'm going to show you what

Speaker:

average actually is based on a study of 20,000 men worldwide.

Speaker:

How to measure correctly, and the part nobody tells you, what

Speaker:

women typically prefer and why bigger can actually create

Speaker:

problems.

Speaker:

Do doctors measure down there? Not necessarily, unless it's the

Speaker:

problem. So along with your question, I want to also answer

Speaker:

probably a question that most men think about. Because studies

Speaker:

have shown that 87% of men think that they're smaller compared to

Speaker:

other men. That's actually untrue. All right, so there was

Speaker:

a study that looked at 20,000 men of all races from different

Speaker:

countries all over the world, and they look at what is the

Speaker:

average size a man's penis, flaccid, when he's not erect,

Speaker:

and then when he is erect. When you're not erect or flaccid,

Speaker:

it's usually about three inch. When you are erect, it's five

Speaker:

and a half inch. Yes, it's about three inch when you're not

Speaker:

erect, when your erect, it's five and a half inch for the

Speaker:

length. And for the girth when you're erect, it's four and

Speaker:

three quarter. Four inch and three quarter circumference,

Speaker:

right? Around like this. And then with the length is five and

Speaker:

a half.

Speaker:

So if you that size, and how do you measure? You measure from

Speaker:

the base of your peanut to the end, to the tip, when you're

Speaker:

erect. And then when you're not erect, you measure the same. And

Speaker:

if you're around that number, you're average. The average,

Speaker:

mean average. You're around that number, you're at the 50

Speaker:

percentile. You're at average. So most men think that they

Speaker:

should be eight nine inches. That's more like porn. That's

Speaker:

not normal eight nine inches. It's really more the top 1% or

Speaker:

0.5%. And to tell you honestly, there was a study that looked at

Speaker:

women what size vibrator women get. Guess what size vibrator

Speaker:

that women buy the most? What size vibrator that women enjoy

Speaker:

and buy the most? Five and a half inches. So if you're long

Speaker:

eight, nine inches, it may be uncomfortable for the woman,

Speaker:

because the vaginal canal can be only a certain length. So the

Speaker:

longer you are, you're going to be hitting against her cervix,

Speaker:

which is the opening of her uterus. You're going to be

Speaker:

hitting against it. It may cause her discomfort, okay? So not

Speaker:

necessarily longer or bigger is women want sometimes, it's

Speaker:

really the average size is the vibrator is about five and a

Speaker:

half. But if you're longer, then good for you.

Speaker:

What pleases women more is more the girth than the length. But

Speaker:

the girth will stretch more of the vaginal opening and nerve

Speaker:

that give pleasure for women is just kind of what inside the

Speaker:

vaginal opening by inch. Inside the vaginal opening, the opening

Speaker:

of the vagina and the nerves that give her pleasure just by

Speaker:

within an inch of the opening. So between length and girth, a

Speaker:

girth gives women more sensation. Too long will be

Speaker:

uncomfortable for her.

Speaker:

Where can you get the penis pump? You can get the penis pump

Speaker:

at ED No More.com or check the link down below this video to

Speaker:

get the penis pump so you can start exercising your penis

Speaker:

again. Remember, you are only one pump away.

Speaker:

Men, struggling to stay hard? Most of the time it comes down

Speaker:

to poor blood flow. That's why I put together the Good Morning

Speaker:

Wood smoothie, a nutrient packed blend designed to restore blood

Speaker:

flow naturally. My patient often notice improvement in just a few

Speaker:

weeks when they take this part of their daily routine. Click

Speaker:

the link below to get the recipe and start boosting your blood

Speaker:

flow and firmness today, or go to goodmorningwoodsmoothie.com.

Speaker:

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

Speaker:

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

Speaker:

problem. One of the best research pathways to boost

Speaker:

circulation, support healthy testosterone and improve sexual

Speaker:

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

Speaker:

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

Speaker:

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

Speaker:

both energy and erection within weeks when they shift to this

Speaker:

style of eating. So check out the Mediterranean diet link

Speaker:

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

Speaker:

testosterone and better erection.

Speaker:

Speaking of sexual arousal, can a particular type of fetish

Speaker:

cause ED later in years? Well, it depends on what type of

Speaker:

fetish and how often you do it in that scenario. So I don't

Speaker:

know how to answer that question. It depends on the

Speaker:

fetish and depends on how you process it, okay? But there are

Speaker:

multiple causes of ED, so I want you guys to consider that, okay?

Speaker:

So always consider the most obvious things, which is

Speaker:

alcohol. Alcohol play a big role in affecting your erection.

Speaker:

Smoking, but smoking involved vaping as well, too. And also

Speaker:

sleep. Sleep can also affect your erection as well.

Speaker:

So there you have it. The 5.5 inch truth. At the end of the

Speaker:

day, a healthy lifestyle, good sleep, less alcohol, and no

Speaker:

smoking will do way more for your performance in the bedroom

Speaker:

than wishing for an extra inch. If you found this breakdown
