Most men think erectile dysfunction is a bedroom problem. It's actually one of the earliest warning signs of cardiovascular disease, capable of showing up three to five years before a heart attack.In this episode,
Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Amy Pearlman, a urologist trained in men's sexual health, to discuss:
- Why ED is a symptom of vascular health, not a standalone disease and how the artery feeding the heart is roughly double the size of the one feeding the penis, so problems show up "down there" first
- Why "normal" testosterone can be meaningless, and the questions to ask before accepting a lab result that didn't flag
- How daily erections preserve penile tissue the way water keeps a sponge supple and why disuse can cost noticeable size over just a few months
- That cardiovascular exercise can rival ED medication for improving erectile function, making your heart health the real fix
- How to track erectile fitness before there's a problem, instead of waiting until something breaks
