Thanks for stopping by!!!!!!
Let me tell you what I heard today! I heard that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a new drug called "Xtandi" (or enzalutamide) for the treatment of prostate cancer in men who continue the fight of their lives, even after having certain male-reproductive organs surgically removed; they call it "late-stage (metastatic) castration-resistant prostate cancer."
I often urge men, especially Black men, to get their prostate exams done. But just because there's a new drug on the market, doesn't mean I will be less vigilant about recruiting men for prostate exams. We've come a long way, but we still have a ways to go!
Congratulations and THANK YOU, FDA! Click the title above (NEW DRUG: PROSTATE CANCER) to visit the FDA's website.
You've heard of the vaginal muscle exercises women do, right? They're called "Kegel" exercises; often referred to as "Kegels." At times, we could be looking right at you, while doing Kegel exercises. What?! You would've known the difference, anyway! Besides, men do them, too!
Kegler exercises are done by contracting and relaxing the muscles used to control urination. In other words, Kegels are basically done by attempting to urinate and then attempting to stop urinating, repeatedly. The muscle in question is called "Pubococcygeus." It stretches from the pubic bone, down past the anus, to the tail bone or coccyx, as we say in the medical field. The Pubococcygeus muscle also happens to contract when an orgasm occurs.
Research shows that performance of Kegel exercises improve premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, and inflammation of the prostate gland. In both men and women, Kegels are documented as having helped helping improve urinary incontinence. In women particularly, research shows that Kegel exercises help ease the childbirth process.
However, since the topic of men's health seems to be kept hush-hush, I thought I would bring it up and reference more details to help promote a healthier dating pool ;-) Besides, the prostate gland facilitates orgasms in men => Orgasms are a part of sexual intercourse => which help reduce stress & increases intimacy.
As usual, it's likely that I will write a more detailed article on this topic, but you'll need to subscribe to access it.
