Vasectomy – Is There Another Way?

August 27  |  Anatomy, Blog, Dr. Danoff, Male Sexual Health, Penis Power book, PW, Relationships, Romance, Sex and Health, Sexuality, superpotency, Urology, Vasectomy  |  Dr. Dudley Danoff

I am often asked if there are any choices for male birth control other than vasectomy. Unfortunately, the only effective, practical and safe alternatives that currently exist are abstinence, the use of condoms or other prophylactics, and withdrawal. However, I would predict that with the rapid rate of the advances we have seen in medical science, men will soon be able to simply take a pill to control the release of their sperm, just as women take a pill to control the release of their eggs.

The results of a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that surgery for early-stage prostate cancer was no better in saving lives than observation alone over a 10-year period. The study compared radical prostatectomy with watchful waiting in men diagnosed with low-grade localized prostate cancer and concluded that surgery did not significantly prolong the lives of many of the men.

In the context of my busy urologic practice, I am often asked if there is any way to make male orgasms last longer. This area is one where men are jealous of women. I call it Venus Envy. For reasons unknown, nature designed humans so that women can experience prolonged wavelike orgasms, while men can experience brief and thunderous orgasms, five to seven seconds in duration. Wouldn’t it be great, men dream, if we could make that ecstatic sensation last a full minute? Five minutes? An hour? So far, no one has come up with a way to prolong orgasm. However, we have found ways to delay it. Continue Reading

We are all aware of many high-priced drugs, some costing more than $10,000 a month for treatment, that have radically altered the course of a patient’s illness. We are also aware of a huge market in generic-equivalent drugs, many of which are similar in chemical composition and effect to their high-priced cousins. Continue Reading

A new study from Duke University Medical Center, led by Dr. Judd W. Moul, a prostate surgeon, suggests that men’s expectations of laparoscopic robot-assisted prostatectomy may be too high. The study found that of 171 men facing prostate cancer surgery, those having robotic surgery expected a shorter hospital stay and a quicker return to their usual physical activity and sex life. Dr. Moul points out that those hopes may not be realistic. I disagree with this observation. Continue Reading

Finally, A Rational Reason To Recommend Circumcision

February 29  |  AIDS, Anatomy, Blog, Circumcision, Dr. Danoff, HIV, Male Sexual Health, PW, Sex and Health, Urology  |  Dr. Dudley Danoff

The concept of “to be or not to be,” circumcised that is, is both ageless and fraught with emotional, religious, psychological, medical, and moral issues. All sides have argued both for and against circumcision with a high degree of emotion and ill-conceived prejudice. Continue Reading

I recently came across an article in the Journal of Sexual Medicine from Kermanshah, Iran, that reported a case of priapism (an erection lasting longer than four hours) following a penile tattooing. Continue Reading
