Erectile Dysfunction Radio Podcast

Erectile dysfunction (ED) and performance anxiety affect countless men, yet many suffer in silence—feeling ashamed, confused, or alone. As a certified sex therapist, I frequently hear the same core concerns: “Is this normal?”, “Is it in my head or my body?”, “Can I talk to my partner about this?”, and “Will I ever feel like myself again?”   The truth is, ED is incredibly common and often caused by a mix of physical and psychological factors. Even when a doctor says everything looks fine physically, stress, shame, and fear can disrupt sexual function. That’s where therapy comes in—not just to talk, but to understand the root causes and offer real, evidence-based tools for healing. Opening up to a partner can be tough, but silence only adds to the tension. Therapy can also help with communication strategies that bring couples closer together. The good news: ED is treatable. With the right support, men can rebuild confidence, restore intimacy, and redefine what "normal" means in their sex lives.

In this special episode of the Erectile Dysfunction Radio Podcast, host and certified sex therapist Mark Goldberg opens up about how he began helping men with psychogenic erectile dysfunction (ED) and premature ejaculation. Originally trained as a couples therapist, Mark began to notice a recurring, often unspoken pattern in his sessions—men quietly struggling with sexual performance, not due to a physical issue, but because of anxiety, pressure, and disconnection.   These conversations revealed a critical gap in support: while many men had seen doctors and tried medication, they still felt lost and ashamed. Mark realized that the traditional medical approach wasn’t enough. What was needed was a space where men could talk openly and safely about their experiences, and where emotional, psychological, and relational factors could be explored without judgment.   For more free erectile dysfunction education and resources, please visit: https://eiqmen.com/   Mark Goldberg helps men resolve erectile dysfunction.

Today we are joined by Dr. Robinson, a naturopathic doctor specializing in longevity and sexual wellness, shared insights on how hormones impact men’s s*xual health. With 36 years of experience, he highlighted the importance of key hormones like testosterone and estradiol in maintaining sexual function and overall vitality. Hormonal imbalances can lead to s*xual performance issues, fatigue, mood swings, and metabolic disorders like weight gain and high cholesterol. Dr. Robinson also explained how stress, caused by elevated cortisol, can block testosterone’s effectiveness.

Today we are joined once again by Dr. Ariel Moradzadeh, a board-certified urologist practicing in Beverly Hills, California, who specializes in men's sexual health, explains that Peyronie's disease affects approximately 1 in 10 men in America and is characterized by acquired penile curvature due to plaque formation in the tunica albuginea (the lining of the corporal bodies). This condition is distinct from natural penile curvatures such as congenital chordee or corporal mismatch that are present from birth.

Sexual satisfaction is vital in relationships, but differing expectations can create challenges. Certified sex therapist Mark Goldberg discusses two key approaches: Good Enough S*x and Expansive S*x. Understanding these can enhance intimacy and address sexual dysfunction.   Good Enough Sex This approach emphasizes routine and predictability. Individuals who prefer good enough sex find comfort in familiar experiences, leading to reliability and efficiency in intimacy. While this can strengthen a couple’s bond over time, it may also lead to sexual stagnation, boredom, and decreased arousal if variety is lacking.   Expansive Sex In contrast, expansive sex involves exploration and novelty. Those with an expansive approach seek new experiences to maintain excitement and psychological engagement. While this can enhance pleasure and connection, it may also create pressure, especially if one partner struggles to keep up with evolving desires. This pressure can contribute to performance anxiety and even erectile dysfunction.

Today, we are joined by Rafi Billick, a couples therapist based in Baltimore and author of "Couples Communication Handbook: The Skills You Never Learned for the Marriage You Always Wanted." With years of experience helping couples at every stage of their relationships, from newly engaged to decades-married, Billick emphasizes that the foundation of all successful relationships lies in empathy. Many relationship experts believe that empathy lies at the heart of every successful relationship. Through years of clinical observation, therapists have discovered that the ability to truly understand and feel what a partner is experiencing creates the foundation for lasting connections. As a sex therapist, I’ve seen how political differences can create stress between couples. When partners don’t agree on politics, it can lead to arguments and distance. That’s why empathy—being able to understand and respect how someone else feels—is so important. Even if you don’t agree, showing kindness and care can help keep your connection strong.

The 2024 election was one of the most heated in history, ending with Donald Trump’s win. No matter which side you’re on, the emotions are strong. Some people feel happy and relieved, while others feel upset and worried. This mix of feelings can cause tension not just in communities but also in families and relationships.   As a sex therapist, I’ve seen how political differences can create stress between couples.
