About this episode

💬 “ I know my patients get nervous around me, because this is not their normal, right? But I am looking at genitalia and examining people every single day, multiple times a day.” ~Dr Rena Malik

⚡️ Dr Rena Malik is a board-certified urologist, pelvic surgeon, sexual health expert and YouTuber. Her channel covers everything from frequent nighttime peeing, to erectile dysfunction, vaginal dryness, orgasms and penis enlargement.

⚡️ In this episode Rena and I are removing the shame and stigma of talking about these issues, so you can feel properly informed, and empowered, to take control of your health - whatever’s going on.

🎧 Stay tuned to find out:

➡︎ The science of your pelvis and how to look after it

➡︎ Just how common erectile dysfunction really is (and what to do about it)

➡ Why penis size really doesn’t matter (and the reality of penis lengthening procedures)

➡︎ Whether masturbation really reduces your risk of getting prostate cancer

➡︎ How to stop incontinence and frequent nighttime urination
