9
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:42,840
Hello there, Modern Man. Ever
wonder why does alcohol affect

10
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,920
your erection? Well, let's dive
into it today and stay until the

11
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,310
end, and you will find out
something that you didn't know

12
00:00:50,370 --> 00:00:54,000
that alcohol affects. So let's
dive into it. I'm Dr Anne

13
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,870
Truong. I'm a medical doctor
specialized in sexual medicine.

14
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,220
We know that alcohol kind of
relaxes you. You take one drink,

15
00:01:02,250 --> 00:01:06,030
relaxes you. That's great. It
may even make you be relaxed.

16
00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:09,180
That's probably why it helps you
in the mood for sex and your

17
00:01:09,180 --> 00:01:13,920
libido. But do you know that
there are short term effects of

18
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,300
alcohol that really affect your
erection? Number one, you're

19
00:01:18,330 --> 00:01:21,570
going to notice that when you
drink alcohol that is too much,

20
00:01:21,570 --> 00:01:24,270
you're going to get something
called Whiskey Dick because

21
00:01:24,420 --> 00:01:29,910
alcohol lowers your blood
pressure and it interferes with

22
00:01:29,910 --> 00:01:34,290
signal between the brain and the
penis that's needed for

23
00:01:34,290 --> 00:01:38,310
erection. And sometimes it also
dull your sensation, your

24
00:01:38,310 --> 00:01:42,990
sensitivity as well. Number two,
it reduces your sensitivity, and

25
00:01:42,990 --> 00:01:47,250
therefore it kind of makes
sexual activity less pleasurable

26
00:01:47,340 --> 00:01:51,030
or even effective, and that's
what lead to number three,

27
00:01:51,090 --> 00:01:56,220
alcohol affect delay and
inhibited orgasm, because

28
00:01:56,220 --> 00:02:00,600
drinking makes it harder to
reach orgasm, and also can

29
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:05,130
affect delay ejaculation. Number
four, the most important part is

30
00:02:05,130 --> 00:02:08,820
that alcohol creates a weaker
erection. Even if you can

31
00:02:08,820 --> 00:02:13,950
achieve an erection, it may not
be as firm due to impaired blood

32
00:02:13,950 --> 00:02:14,460
flow.

33
00:02:14,540 --> 00:02:18,980
Now, long term effects, meaning
if you drink more than three

34
00:02:18,980 --> 00:02:23,810
drinks a day, been doing it for
years. Long term is that you

35
00:02:23,810 --> 00:02:27,470
will have erectile dysfunction,
meaning there are damage to the

36
00:02:27,470 --> 00:02:31,190
blood vessels and nerve which a
condition called alcoholic

37
00:02:31,190 --> 00:02:36,380
neuropathy, that lead to long
term ED. And then alcohol, long

38
00:02:36,410 --> 00:02:40,310
term, can also lower your
libido, because it reduces

39
00:02:40,310 --> 00:02:44,510
testosterone level and therefore
decrease sexual desire. Number

40
00:02:44,510 --> 00:02:51,020
three, it also shrink your
sexual organ. Yes, prolonged

41
00:02:51,050 --> 00:02:56,630
alcohol abuse can lead to
testicle shrinkage and reduced

42
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:03,410
penis size due to lower hormone
imbalances. Number four, chronic

43
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:09,440
alcohol use can make your
testicle and your penis smaller

44
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:14,240
due to hormone imbalances. So
that's something very, very

45
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,840
important, isn't it? You don't
want your manhood to be smaller,

46
00:03:17,930 --> 00:03:22,190
but long term alcohol will
affect that. You can also

47
00:03:22,220 --> 00:03:27,350
experience issues like premature
ejaculation or even delay

48
00:03:27,350 --> 00:03:31,670
orgasm, along with ED as well
too.

49
00:03:31,660 --> 00:03:36,430
Let's talk about how much is too
much well, like I've always said

50
00:03:36,550 --> 00:03:42,610
two drinks a day is probably
good, and you can actually do

51
00:03:42,610 --> 00:03:46,150
okay. If you do two drinks a
day, that's about 14 drinks a

52
00:03:46,150 --> 00:03:49,870
week. So two drinks a day may
not affect your erectile

53
00:03:49,900 --> 00:03:55,840
function. However, three or more
drinks a day, or 12 grams of

54
00:03:55,870 --> 00:04:01,330
ethanol, can significantly
increase your risk of ED. So

55
00:04:01,330 --> 00:04:04,990
what is considered a typical
standard drink? A standard drink

56
00:04:04,990 --> 00:04:08,410
is defined as 12 ounce of
regular beer, which is 5%

57
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:16,330
alcohol, 5 ounce of wine which
is 12% alcohol, and 1.5 ounce of

58
00:04:16,330 --> 00:04:22,060
distilled spirit which usually
contains about 40% alcohol. And

59
00:04:22,060 --> 00:04:26,500
so that's one standard drink. So
you're allowed two beers a day,

60
00:04:26,710 --> 00:04:33,070
or three ounces of spirit, or 10
ounces of wine a day. So I'm

61
00:04:33,070 --> 00:04:38,200
just kind of doubling the ounces
in beer, wine, and spirit. So

62
00:04:38,230 --> 00:04:40,900
that's kind of like your
allotment. You go more than

63
00:04:40,900 --> 00:04:45,280
that, you know you're going to
experience whiskey dick. So I

64
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:49,570
wanted to kind of do a video,
kind of explain to you how

65
00:04:49,570 --> 00:04:52,600
alcohol can affect your
erection, and in the beginning,

66
00:04:52,630 --> 00:04:56,620
maybe the first one, help you
relax, help you be more social.

67
00:04:56,620 --> 00:05:01,000
And then more than that is going
to affect your performance that

68
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,470
night. So just be aware of it.
And that alcohol can also affect

69
00:05:05,470 --> 00:05:10,480
the absorption of ED medication
as well. It will make it even

70
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,740
less effective because it numbs
the nerve and it also decreased

71
00:05:14,740 --> 00:05:16,900
the blood flow. You don't want
that. If you want to get an

72
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:20,230
erection, you gotta have
increased blood flow.

73
00:05:20,260 --> 00:05:25,840
So there you go. You got some
allowances for alcohol for the

74
00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:29,470
night, and just know that
imbibing too much will probably

75
00:05:29,470 --> 00:05:33,400
affect your performance as well.
I hope you find this helpful.
