Years ago, I was interviewed for an article on Erectile Dysfunction in young men. It was interesting to talk to a young female reporter who knew absolutely nothing about the subject. She sent me a long list of questions and we had several long discussions on the phone. I thought that this was a great chance to really educate the public about a very taboo subject among young men. Well, as usually happens, my hours of eloquent and illuminating discourse on ED in young men was reduced to two sentences that really were of very little consequence! So much for my scintillating discourse! The article ..read more

It’s a common myth that men think about sex every seven seconds. However, a study conducted at Ohio State University suggests the real number is likely closer to 19 times a day. Regardless of the figure, you can guarantee most of those thoughts concern getting busy between the sheets, and not what happens in the body. A lot of men have no idea how wonderfully complex their anatomy actually is, but I’m here to offer some insights.

Parenting would be a lot easier if it were like baking – exact ingredients, precise directions, specific chocolate-to-dough ratio, and voila! The perfect chocolate chip cookie!

Mothers and fathers often consider several factors such as their own upbringing and culture, belief system, societal messa ..read more

The use of Clomid to increase testosterone levels has been in practice for many years.  Clomid is the preferred treatment to increase testosterone levels in men who want to maintain fertility options because testosterone replacement products (Testim, Androgel, etc) can decrease sperm production.  Over time, the use of testosterone can shut down sperm production by the testes.  This stoppage can be permanent in some men.  Thus, men who wish to maintain fertility only have a few options. One option for men is to “freeze” (cryopreserve) their sperm before starting testosterone ..read more
