Dr. Paul Gittens, a specialist in sexual function, discusses Scrotox, Dicktox, and erections. They cover treatments for erectile dysfunction, Botox for genitals, mental health's impact on ED, and sexual future after prostate cancer. The podcast also explores BDSM accessories, male genital cosmetic procedures, and innovative treatments for ED.
Scrotox can provide both medical benefits by relaxing the scrotum and aesthetic advantages by addressing testicular pain and promoting scrotal relaxation.
Anxiety and stress can significantly impact erectile dysfunction by diverting blood flow away from the penis, leading to difficulties in achieving and maintaining an erection.
Erectile difficulties post-prostate cancer treatment can be managed through proactive measures like pumps, injections, or penile implants to restore erectile health and prevent urinary leakage issues.

Overview of Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the inability to initiate or maintain a satisfactory erection for sexual activity. It can be influenced by factors such as age, vascular issues, hormonal imbalances, physical conditions like scarring, psychological concerns, and medication side effects. Treatments range from proactive measures like hydro pumps to more advanced options like shockwave therapy, platelet-rich plasma therapy, and even Botox for penile relaxation.
Scrotox and its Benefits
Scrotox, the administration of Botox to the scrotum, helps relax the scrotum, preventing discomfort and providing aesthetic benefits. It can address testicular pain, promote scrotal relaxation, and offer relief for chronic issues. Scrotox aids in creating a looser scrotum and can be used for both medical and aesthetic purposes.
Exploring Chronic Testicular Pain
Chronic testicular pain can result from various conditions like varicoceles, pelvic floor dysfunction, or post-surgical complications. Treatment may involve addressing underlying causes, offering pelvic floor therapy, or relieving discomfort through medications or alternative therapies. Understanding the individual's situation and conducting a thorough evaluation help in identifying and managing chronic testicular pain effectively.
Preventing Testicular Discomfort
A careful choice of underwear and clothing can play a significant role in preventing testicular discomfort. Opting for looser-fitting underwear and clothing can reduce chafing, enhance scrotal relaxation, and alleviate chronic discomfort. Supporting the testicles with suitable undergarments and maintaining a balance between comfort and proper fit can contribute to overall testicular well-being.
Effects of Mental Health on Erectile Dysfunction
Anxiety and stress play significant roles in erectile dysfunction, impacting blood flow to the penis. Adrenaline, triggered by anxiety, diverts blood flow away from the penis to other body parts in a fight or flight response. This redirection of blood flow can lead to difficulties in achieving and maintaining an erection, especially in cases of situational or anxiety-induced erectile dysfunction.
Challenges After Prostate Cancer Treatments
Prostate cancer treatments like surgery or radiation can damage nerves and blood vessels essential for erectile function, resulting in erectile difficulties. Dr. Gittens emphasizes a proactive approach, providing treatments such as pumps, injections, or penile implants to help restore erectile health post-treatment. These interventions aim to maintain blood flow, prevent scarring, and address potential urinary leakage issues that may arise as a result of prostate cancer treatments.
What is ED, what are the main causes, and who does it affect? What are some of the common treatments and exercises that can help with blood flow issues that cause ED? Is Scrotox really Botox for the balls? What does it do and does it really work? What about Botox for the penis? Is it a thing and how can it help with erections? How does a person’s mental health (stress/depression/anxiety) have an effect on ED just as much as a person’s physiological health? And can people who have experienced prostate cancer still have a bright sexual future?
