Wellbeing in Men's Health
This page will likely grow as our relationship with the community grows and additional needs are brought forth. If there are questions of any of our topics of interest, please contact us.
1
Sexual Wellness
Conservative estimates suggest that about 30 million men in the U.S. suffer from some form of erectile dysfunction (ED). Prevalence increases from age 40 and with each passing decade. Unfortunately, men are known to suffer in silence. What is more important to understand is that age alone is not the driving factor, instead it is the accumulation of comorbidities like smoking, excessive alcohol use, poor nutrition and having excess weight to name a few. What is more important to grasp is that several studies suggest that within approximately 7 years of the symptoms of ED starting, 15% of men will suffer a heart attack or stroke. Your sexual function is actually a rather profound vital sign that we cannot ignore. We will discuss your sexual wellness and treat as appropriate or refer to our urologic colleagues in the community. We know statistically that men do not always share their sexual health concerns with their providers but this practice has the time to discuss these things. You drive the conversation.

Cognitive Health
Our perception of how we lived our lives will often be in reflection of how well we lived and not how long we lived. Cognitive decline through neurodegenerative processes can be on all of our horizons. Research is now suggesting that our vascular health and behaviors that put this at risk will encourage decline. Likely our best chance of maintaining both cognition and performance over the lifespan is to continue to train outside of our routine needs, ie don't just run on a track to be proficient endurance athlete, don't just do crossword puzzles to keep sharp on expression and manipulation of language.
