“40% Of Young Men Need Erectile Retraining” - Dr K HealthyGamer
Chris Williamson
The Penis Adapts To Training 0:00
Dr K explains that when a teenage boy discovers pornography and starts masturbating, his body adapts to that specific kind of stimulation over many years, the same way someone adapts to spicy food or caffeine. This creates a mismatch, since access to pornography is at an all time high while access to a healthy sexual relationship is at an all time low. The result is a shockingly high level of erectile dysfunction, which he estimates affects around 30 percent of men under 30. He defines erectile dysfunction not as an inability to get hard but as an inability to maintain an erection through the completion of the sexual act. The physical reason is simple: a fist can exert about 130 pounds per square inch of grip force, while a vagina exerts something closer to 30 psi, so a penis trained for years on a tight hand grip struggles to respond to much gentler pressure during intercourse. He has worked with men in their sixties who cannot climax through oral sex or vaginal intercourse at all, and can only finish using their hand or through anal sex, purely because of how their penis was trained.
Testosterone Is Not The Real Cause 5:32
Dr K argues that blaming falling testosterone for erectile dysfunction is overstated. Average testosterone dropped from about 612 to 690 nanograms per deciliter around the year 2000 to about 400 today, a drop of roughly a third, but this remains within acceptable limits and almost certainly does not cause physiologic problems on its own. Only about 5 percent of erectile dysfunction cases are due to actual testosterone deficiency, known as hypogonadism, meaning 95 percent of cases have nothing to do with testosterone. He notes that skipping leg day matters more than people think, since stress on the quadriceps is one of the greatest natural signals for testosterone production. More importantly, the penis is a vascular organ, not an endocrine one, so cardiovascular health, blood flow, and nitric oxide levels, the same mechanism targeted by Viagra, matter far more for erection strength and duration than testosterone does.
How To Retrain Your Penis 10:00
The retraining process takes about ten days to two weeks for the body to start shifting, which is roughly the same window it takes for muscle mass to noticeably decline once someone stops lifting weights. About 50 percent of men will experience a nocturnal emission after seven days without ejaculating, since the body starts recalibrating on its own. He recommends abstaining for around two weeks before a new sexual relationship, then using a loose grip and lots of lubricant during masturbation to mimic the lower pressure of intercourse rather than the tight grip of a fist. He also suggests avoiding pornography during masturbation and letting thoughts do the work instead, since the mind plays a major role in both premature ejaculation and the inability to ejaculate. For men dealing with premature ejaculation, he advises thinking nonsexual thoughts, such as prime factor analysis, while relaxation itself increases blood flow to the genitals, allowing arousing thoughts to build climax naturally.
