See you on the inside.
Hello there, Modern Man.
What if I told you that the same stuff that your wife uses to smooth out the wrinkles on her forehead and on her face could actually be the secret weapon to saving your sex life?
I know, I know you hear the word bold talk and you're like, what?
That's what women use to get rid of their wrinkles, and the last thing you want is a needle coming anywhere near your manhood.
It sounds crazy, but if you're a man who has tried the little blue pills and it hasn't really worked well, and that you even try other injections, still aren't getting rigid erection you want, then you need to listen to this.
Hello there.
I'm Dr Anne Truong, I've helped 7000 men with ED regain function, and I want them to live their best life.
Recent study, including randomized controlled trial, In today's episode, we're talking about a treatment shaking up the world of men's health, though it is not an FDA approved yet, but it is considered off label, but the research is coming out incredibly compelling for Botox for erectile dysfunction.
So how on earth does the wrinkle medication help you get hard?
To understand this, we have to go back to the basics of how erection happens.
You've heard me said it before, erections is all about being relaxed, not only in your penis, but also in your head.
To get an erection, which are the gold standard for research, have shown amazing the smooth muscle inside your penis needs to relax so it can fill up with blood.
But here is the enemy, the sympathetic Men, struggling to stay nervous system.
The sympathetic nervous system is your body kind of "fight or flight" mode.
Like, for instance, if you're stressed, you don't sleep well, you're anxious, or you have high blood pressure, your body releases its chemical that's called norepinephrine, and that's kind of like the stress hormone.
So this chemical keep your muscles tight and it doesn't expand.
So it's great when you're in danger and you results.
They took men who have severe.
TD, who actually failed need to run away from danger, as such as running away from a tiger, but it's terrible for the bedroom, because your body is programmed to think like, Well, I need to get away from danger, and I need to put the blood in my arms and my legs so I can run away, right?
But it's taking blood away from the penis.
That's what it's doing.
So when you're stressed, blood does not go down to your penis at all.
And then those penis muscle get tight, so blood can't even get in at all.
So no blood flow, stress, no erection, so this is where Botox comes in.
So just Viagra, failed Cialis failed everything sort of an implant.
like it relaxes the muscle on the forehead to stop the wrinkle, well, when we inject it into the smooth muscle of the penis, it block that stress chemical.
It literally forces the penis to relax, and it turns off that fight or flight signal, or the norepinephrine allowing the vessel to open up and the blood to rush in.
Not only that, it also relaxes the muscle of the penis as well, because it blocks the chemical that gets released from the nerve that goes to the penis, and therefore it make the penis muscle relax, so it relaxes that stress chemical, norepinephrine.
But at the same time, it also relaxes And after receiving Botox, about 50% to 77% of these men saw the muscles, so double the action.
So you want the muscle to be relaxed.
significant improvement in the hardness of their erection.
And here's the interesting part, it seemed to have a synergy effect, How long does this last?
This isn't a one time permanent fix, but it lasts a good while.
The studies show that the theft kicked it in about two to four weeks, but I've seen men kicked it in within five days, and it lasts anywhere from six to nine months.
And if you have a higher dose, such 100 unit, it will last to nine months.
You have a lower dose, it's more six months.
And that is significantly longer than a meaning additive effect.
So if the Botox alone didn't fix 100% pill, right, which usually lasts about four hours.
So this lasts for months.
Now, you're probably thinking, Oh, my God.
Dr Anne, is there a side effect?
Well, actually, there is a little bit.
Botox relaxes the smooth muscle, so effectively, some studies have noted an improvement, and also the penis, when it's relaxed, it's more lengthening of the penis.
When it looks relaxed, it looks more full.
So it's actually an added benefit, right?
So I'm not promising you an extra two inch, but for men dealing with shrinkage, this is a very nice bonus.
Now, Botox had been used by women the last 20 years, and women get in their of the problem, it make the pills work better with it.
So face every three months.
So is it safe?
The safety profile is very, very high.
The most common side effects is just a little pain at the injection site, but we put in numbing cream.
I also do a penile nerve block as well, so you don't feel anything at all.
So women have been doing it for 20 years, so it's been proven to be safe, right?
One of the things is that I'm doing it that is special is that I'm also mixing the Botox with your blood, the platelet-rich plasma, which are the platelet that comes from your blood, and I inject it at same time as the guys who weren't responding to Viagra or Cialis before are now Botox, so you have this additive effect of the Botox and your blood for healing, because the blood will help bring in more blood vessels and bring in more blood flow to the penis.
So platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, which is your own stem cell, will bring in more blood flow.
Botox then work on relaxing the muscle and also calming down that stress chemical that will restrict direction.
So it works in separate pathway, but it works synergistically together.
So that's what I'm excited to And don't forget, it will do me a great favor if you subscribe tell you.
So is Botox right for you?
Well, one thing to consider is that it responding with the medication after the Botox is injected that works well for men that have vascular ED or men that have blood flow issues.
But if you have like nerve damage from diabetes, and you may have to use combination both the stem cell like the platelet-rich plasma And the shock wave therapy, along with electromagnetic field and other modalities as well too.
But Botox is considered a good right bridge that saves you from needing a penile implant.
Now, a combination therapy the Botox plus your own stem cells such as the platelet-rich plasma, which increase your blood flow, plus adding testosterone hormone, plus doing focus shockwave which and get notification and share this with somebody that you feel relax those disturbing muscle and also relaxes those stress also increases blood flow, and changing your diet, starting a Mediterranean diet, adding exercise to it, and then improving your sleep.
Is win, win, win.
Everything that's positive is added together.
So think of it like a melting pot with all the good stuff.
I have seen this work men that had prostate surgery.
I've seen this in men who had more than 10 years of ED that failed medication and even had their prostate removed.
So the severe ED you have, then there's more chemical as well.
things that need to be done.
But the thing is this, if you just start to have ED for a year, or maybe two years, and don't want may benefit from this.
It costs you nothing, but it helped me to take the medication, this may be the best thing for you, and this may even be treatment for you that may last for a long time as long as you continue your lifestyle changes, such as to your diet and exercise, Mediterranean diet and exercise four times a week, along with stress management.
You shouldn't worry about your erection to the day you die.
