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.

Hello there, Modern Man. Do you know that you have four

different type of erection? Not just one, four, and Mother

Nature programmed you to have it that way. All right? I'm Dr Anne

Truong. I've treated over 7000 men with ED over 20 year span.

Let me say it again. You heard it right. You have four

different type of erection that you can have. And they're all

erection, but they are kind of created a little differently.

But your body is programmed to have erection. Kind of like the

same way that why you need to have sex, because that's the way

your body is programmed. Let me start with the first erection,

that is the morning erection, and you've had that probably

since you're an adolescent, right when you start making

testosterone and puberty. And morning erection usually happen

at night time actually, and you can have between three to six

erection at night, with the most prominent one in the morning

when you wake up. However, it only happens when you're in a

dream like state called Rapid Eye Movement, and that is

spontaneous. So it happens when you're asleep, because that's

when you're in deep sleep, you're dreaming, and you're in a

parasympathetic state. And when you're in a parasympathetic

state, the nerve is stimulated, you're releasing nitric oxide,

you're increasing blood flow, therefore erection. So that

erection number one, is morning erection, or even nighttime

erection. You get about three to six of that and a night. How

good is that? Right?

Number two is called spontaneous reflex erection. Now this

erection involves touching. Any type of touching of any of the

erogenous zone, or touching on the penis itself. You know that

you have more than 30 erogenous zones in your body, and with 12

of it just in around the penile area. So touching, so it's a

reflex. So if you touch and then it sends, then your sense

sensation, to the nerve in the spinal cord. It goes in the loop

like this. Sometimes it can even occur with just a slightest

touch, or even just wind blowing near your penis. That's called

reflex. So it goes to the spinal cord, the nerve at s2 and s4 and

that causes that reflex erection. Sometimes, kind of

happen in an embarrassing moment, right? Or sometimes it

kind of happened you brushing against somebody, and whoop,

there goes your erection. Sometimes you can't even control

it. So the younger you are, you may notice that you can't

control it as much.

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

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

Wood smoothie, a nutrient packed blend designed to restore blood

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

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

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

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

Number three is psychogenic erection. Where you get an

erection by just thinking about it. You get an erection when

you, let's say, close your eyes and you think about it, or even

when you're reading erotic books. It comes from your brain.

Then your brain releases hormones and release neuro

chemical, which then sends messages to the nerve the base

of your neck, which send messages to the parasympathetic

nerve, which then open up blood vessels, releases nitric oxide,

which then increases blood flow, and therefore you get an

erection. Now, that is something that sometimes you do without

even thinking about it. That's when you're kind of dreaming, or

when you close your eyes. Sometimes that will happen. And

just know that there is a large psychogenic component to getting

that erection.

So then the fourth one is the most common one where you get an

erection during sexual arousal, which is a combination of both

psychogenic and also the reflex erection. That means that if the

combination of both pathway of the brain. Would then send

messages down to the penis and then also the reflex pathway,

where it involves touching. Now imagine two pathway merging to

give you a full on erection, and that's what you get during

sexual arousal. So sexual arousal involves touching and

using the five senses and the taste, the smell, the visual

stimuli, the audio stimuli, and touch to combine with the

psychological component of being aroused, being in the mood,

being present with yourself and with your partner, being

intentional and not overthinking it. So that's why, sometime

during sexual activity, if you're worried about performance

and you had anxiety or depression of being distracted,

you may not get an erection because you're distracting the

pathway that is generating that erection.

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 overall, there are four different type of erection that

you can have. How interesting is that? So let's summarize. The

first is morning erection, or nighttime erection, which

happens when you're asleep. It's the mother nature's way of

exercising your penis for you and that you should be able to

have it, which is a good sign that you're having it, and you

should continue to have it. And one way to optimize it is to

have good night sleep, and if you relax before you go to bed.

The second type of erection is called the reflex, which is

through touching, or through pressure or touching their

erogenous zone which then sends messages to the nerve and the

spinal cord which send the message to create an erection.

That's the reflex. Number three is psychogenic, or mental which

you can send messages from the brain which then send signal

down to the penis for an erection. And the fourth is the

most common one during sexual arousal is the combination of

both psychogenic and reflex, or touching, which is the most

powerful of all. So knowing that, guys, you just need to

remember to be present, be aroused, be aware. Don't

overthink it. When you overthink it, you're gonna talk yourself

your erection. Oftentimes, just go with the flow. Go what's

going on. Enjoy the moment. Oftentimes, you're enjoying the

moment. You're not thinking about what the what if or what's

gonna happen. So four different type of erection, optimize it

relax and overall, guys, it's all about the four pillars of

maintaining your sexual health. It is following the

Mediterranean diet, exercise 30 minutes, three to five times a

week if you can, get a good night's sleep, and decrease your

stress. How do you decrease your stress through exercise, through

stopping the screen before you go to bed, through socializing

with your family and being present for your partner. Those

are simple things that will go a long way. Research has shown

that diet and exercise alone work even better than Viagra.

Because if you're taking that medicine, Viagra in your body,

you're going to screw up the whole entire natural processes,

how your body produce an erection. Remember in the last

episode I talked about mother nature's way of wanting for you

to have an erection and taking care of you and optimizing you

to have an erection. Don't ruin it. Okay, continue that process,

nurture your body, take care of your body. It will take care of

you. Take care of your body, take care of your heart, and

that will take care of your sex life as well. I'm telling you,

I've seen this work in thousands of men that I work with.

Simplicity works. Simplicity matters. Don't over complicate

things. There is no shiny object. You have to do the work.

If you want your sex life back, you have to do the work. There's

no easy button as a pill that's going to fix that, because

that's a short term thing, because in the long term it is

not going to work.
