  • 00:00:05
    You've been lied to your entire
  • 00:00:07
    life. They told you masturbation was
  • 00:00:09
    dirty. That it was something you should
  • 00:00:11
    have outgrown by the time you turned 50.
  • 00:00:13
    But here's what no one said. After 60,
  • 00:00:16
    masturbation isn't just normal. It could
  • 00:00:19
    be the difference between life and
  • 00:00:21
    decline. I've spent over 30 years
  • 00:00:24
    treating men just like you. My name is
  • 00:00:26
    Dr. Dr. Mohit Kara and I'm a urologist
  • 00:00:28
    and professor of men's health at Baylor
  • 00:00:30
    College of Medicine. I've seen the
  • 00:00:32
    silent consequences of neglect, shame,
  • 00:00:35
    and misinformation. I've watched too
  • 00:00:37
    many good men suffer not from illness
  • 00:00:39
    but from what they never
  • 00:00:41
    knew. Because the truth is this, most
  • 00:00:44
    older men masturbate the wrong way or
  • 00:00:46
    worse, stop altogether. They don't
  • 00:00:48
    realize that how you touch yourself, how
  • 00:00:51
    often, and with what intention can shape
  • 00:00:53
    your hormones, your heart, even your
  • 00:00:56
    brain. Yes, one simple act done poorly
  • 00:00:59
    can contribute to erectile dysfunction,
  • 00:01:02
    depression, and even prostate problems.
  • 00:01:05
    Done right, it can boost testosterone,
  • 00:01:07
    improve sleep, and keep your vascular
  • 00:01:09
    system
  • 00:01:11
    alive. This isn't just about pleasure.
  • 00:01:13
    It's about preserving function,
  • 00:01:15
    reclaiming connection, and fighting back
  • 00:01:18
    against aging where it starts in the
  • 00:01:20
    nervous
  • 00:01:21
    system. In just a moment, I'm going to
  • 00:01:24
    share seven secrets about masturbation
  • 00:01:27
    every man over 60 should have been
  • 00:01:29
    taught decades ago. But first, ask
  • 00:01:31
    yourself, if one part of your daily
  • 00:01:34
    routine held the key to better health,
  • 00:01:36
    better mood, and better vitality,
  • 00:01:38
    wouldn't you want to know what it
  • 00:01:40
    is? Stay with me. What you're about to
  • 00:01:44

    helps me create content that truly
  • 00:02:12
    serves
  • 00:02:13
    you. Now, let's get into it. Starting
  • 00:02:16
    with the first truth most men never hear
  • 00:02:18
    until it's already caused them
  • 00:02:21
    problems. Because the way you've been
  • 00:02:23
    masturbating for years, even decades,
  • 00:02:26
    might feel familiar, even harmless. But
  • 00:02:28
    after 60, what once seemed routine can
  • 00:02:31
    quietly begin to work against
  • 00:02:33
    you. This is where we begin with the
  • 00:02:36
    most overlooked mistake. older men make
  • 00:02:39
    when it comes to self-pleasure. It's
  • 00:02:41
    subtle, it's silent, and over time it
  • 00:02:44
    can cost you more than you think. Secret
  • 00:02:47
    one, mindless masturbation can lead to
  • 00:02:50
    numbness and
  • 00:02:52
    ED. Let me tell you something I wish
  • 00:02:54
    more men had the courage to talk about.
  • 00:02:56
    Over the years, I've had hundreds of
  • 00:02:59
    older patients come into my office
  • 00:03:01
    quietly ashamed, eyes down, their voices
  • 00:03:04
    barely above a whisper. And after some
  • 00:03:06
    time, when the conversation turned
  • 00:03:08
    honest, I would ask, "Do you
  • 00:03:10
    masturbate?" Almost always, there was a
  • 00:03:12
    pause. And then came the confession.
  • 00:03:15
    "Yeah, but I don't feel much anymore."
  • 00:03:17
    Or, "I can't finish unless I do it a
  • 00:03:19
    certain way." Or the one that sticks
  • 00:03:21
    with me most. It's like my body forgot
  • 00:03:23
    how to
  • 00:03:24
    feel. What they didn't know was that the
  • 00:03:27
    way they'd been masturbating, quick,
  • 00:03:29
    mechanical, disconnected, had been
  • 00:03:31
    training their body into dysfunction.
  • 00:03:33
    And the consequences, quiet, creeping,
  • 00:03:38
    devastating. Mindless masturbation isn't
  • 00:03:41
    just a bad habit. It's a neurological
  • 00:03:43
    conditioning loop. Every time you rush
  • 00:03:45
    through the act with tension in your
  • 00:03:47
    shoulders, scrolling through intense
  • 00:03:49
    images, using the same hand, same
  • 00:03:52
    motion, same outcome, you're teaching
  • 00:03:54
    your brain to associate arousal with
  • 00:03:56
    that very specific routine. And
  • 00:03:58
    unfortunately, the brain is a fast
  • 00:04:00
    learner.
  • 00:04:02
    So what happens over time? Your
  • 00:04:05
    sensitivity drops. Your erection quality
  • 00:04:08
    starts to fade. You might notice you
  • 00:04:09
    need more stimulation, more pressure,
  • 00:04:12
    more tricks just to feel the same way
  • 00:04:13
    you did before. It becomes harder to
  • 00:04:15
    respond to a real partner. You start
  • 00:04:18
    avoiding intimacy because it feels too
  • 00:04:20
    different, too slow, too
  • 00:04:22
    real. And this is where the real damage
  • 00:04:25
    sets in. Not just physically, but
  • 00:04:27
    emotionally. I've seen men spiral into
  • 00:04:30
    frustration, shame, even depression,
  • 00:04:32
    thinking their body is broken. But in
  • 00:04:34
    many cases, their body isn't broken.
  • 00:04:36
    It's overtrained in the wrong
  • 00:04:39
    direction. This conditioning can lead to
  • 00:04:42
    something called porn induced erectile
  • 00:04:44
    dysfunction or
  • 00:04:46
    pie. It can also cause what's known as
  • 00:04:49
    delayed ejaculation or in some cases
  • 00:04:52
    complete anorasmia, the inability to
  • 00:04:55
    climax at all. These aren't rare
  • 00:04:57
    conditions. They're quietly affecting
  • 00:05:00
    millions of men. And the cruel part is
  • 00:05:02
    most of them never realize it's
  • 00:05:04
    something they've unintentionally done
  • 00:05:06
    to
  • 00:05:07
    themselves. But here's the worst part,
  • 00:05:09
    and I want you to hear me on this. When
  • 00:05:12
    you condition your body this way, and
  • 00:05:14
    you don't reverse course, it's not just
  • 00:05:17
    sex you lose. You lose confidence. You
  • 00:05:20
    lose connection. You begin to retreat.
  • 00:05:22
    Your relationship with your own body
  • 00:05:24
    turns cold. You avoid touch. You avoid
  • 00:05:27
    closeness. And for many men, that sense
  • 00:05:30
    of isolation becomes the gateway to much
  • 00:05:32
    darker places. Emotional distance,
  • 00:05:35
    depression, even the early signs of
  • 00:05:37
    cognitive decline. I've seen it again
  • 00:05:40
    and
  • 00:05:41
    again. The price you pay isn't just in
  • 00:05:44
    the bedroom. It's in your spirit. It's
  • 00:05:46
    in the way you carry yourself when you
  • 00:05:48
    walk into a room. It's in the way you
  • 00:05:51
    stop looking at yourself in the mirror.
  • 00:05:53
    you slowly begin to
  • 00:05:55
    disappear. Now, I'm not here to shame
  • 00:05:58
    you. I'm here to wake you up. Because
  • 00:06:01
    the good news is your body can relearn.
  • 00:06:04
    The nervous system can heal. But it
  • 00:06:06
    takes awareness, patience, and a new way
  • 00:06:09
    of approaching self-pleasure. One that's
  • 00:06:11
    slower, more conscious, and more
  • 00:06:13
    connected. Not just to sensation, but to
  • 00:06:16
    emotion.
  • 00:06:18
    Masturbation isn't the enemy, but doing
  • 00:06:21
    it without awareness is like putting
  • 00:06:22
    your car in gear and stepping on the gas
  • 00:06:24
    without steering. Eventually, you crash,
  • 00:06:28
    and by the time you notice the damage,
  • 00:06:30
    the repair can take far longer than you
  • 00:06:32
    think. But here's something most men
  • 00:06:35
    don't realize. While mindless
  • 00:06:37
    masturbation causes damage, there's
  • 00:06:39
    something just as dangerous hiding in
  • 00:06:41
    plain sight. Something even quieter,
  • 00:06:43
    even more common. And it's actually
  • 00:06:45
    praised by society.
  • 00:06:48
    In the next secret, I'll show you why
  • 00:06:50
    not masturbating at all after 60 might
  • 00:06:52
    be the very thing slowly sabotaging your
  • 00:06:55
    health from the inside
  • 00:06:56
    out. If you're still here and these
  • 00:06:59
    insights are resonating with you, just
  • 00:07:01
    type the number one in the comments to
  • 00:07:03
    let me know you're still with me. Now,
  • 00:07:05
    let's keep going. There's something
  • 00:07:06
    important you need to hear
  • 00:07:08
    next. Secret. Masturbation reduces
  • 00:07:12
    prostate congestion and inflammation.
  • 00:07:15
    There's a man I remember clearly from a
  • 00:07:17
    few years back. Let's call him David. He
  • 00:07:20
    was 68, proud, reserved, and the kind of
  • 00:07:23
    guy who didn't like to talk about
  • 00:07:24
    personal matters. But he came to see me
  • 00:07:27
    because he was getting up five,
  • 00:07:28
    sometimes six times a night to pee. He
  • 00:07:31
    said he felt pressure, fullness, even a
  • 00:07:33
    dull ache deep in his pelvis. He thought
  • 00:07:36
    it was just old age catching up. What he
  • 00:07:38
    didn't expect me to ask was, "When was
  • 00:07:40
    the last time you ejaculated?"
  • 00:07:43
    He blinked at me like I'd asked him
  • 00:07:45
    something absurd years. He said, "I
  • 00:07:48
    haven't had sex since my wife passed.
  • 00:07:50
    And to be honest, I thought men my age
  • 00:07:52
    were supposed to stop doing
  • 00:07:54
    that." That right there is the myth that
  • 00:07:57
    once you hit a certain number, 60, 60,
  • 00:08:00
    70, you're supposed to just shut the
  • 00:08:02
    whole system down. But here's what I
  • 00:08:04
    told David and what I'll tell you
  • 00:08:07
    now. When you stop ejaculating, your
  • 00:08:09
    prostate doesn't stop working. It keeps
  • 00:08:12
    producing fluid and if that fluid isn't
  • 00:08:14
    released, it builds up creating a kind
  • 00:08:16
    of stagnant reservoir inside your body.
  • 00:08:19
    That buildup, that's what leads to
  • 00:08:21
    prostate congestion, inflammation,
  • 00:08:23
    discomfort, and overtime real health
  • 00:08:27
    risks. Your prostate is not designed to
  • 00:08:29
    store fluid indefinitely. And when it
  • 00:08:32
    does, it becomes swollen, inflamed, and
  • 00:08:35
    irritated. That's when you start
  • 00:08:37
    experiencing urinary urgency, weak
  • 00:08:39
    stream, dribbling, even pain during
  • 00:08:42
    urination or ejaculation. Most men chalk
  • 00:08:45
    it up to aging, but in reality, it's a
  • 00:08:47
    system backed up and under
  • 00:08:49
    pressure. Here's where it gets serious.
  • 00:08:52
    Chronic inflammation in the prostate has
  • 00:08:55
    been linked to an increased risk of
  • 00:08:56
    prostate cancer. Now, I'm not saying
  • 00:08:59
    that abstaining causes cancer, but I am
  • 00:09:02
    saying that frequent ejaculation helps
  • 00:09:04
    reduce the inflammatory environment that
  • 00:09:06
    can make the prostate more vulnerable to
  • 00:09:09
    disease. And there's more. A large
  • 00:09:12
    Harvard study followed nearly 30,000 men
  • 00:09:15
    over years and found that those who
  • 00:09:17
    ejaculated at least 21 times per month
  • 00:09:19
    had a significantly lower risk of
  • 00:09:21
    developing prostate cancer than those
  • 00:09:23
    who didn't. That's not myth, that's
  • 00:09:26
    data.
  • 00:09:27
    But let me bring it back to David. Once
  • 00:09:30
    we talked, once he understood what was
  • 00:09:32
    really happening inside his body, he
  • 00:09:34
    made a change. He began touching himself
  • 00:09:36
    again. Not out of lust or loneliness,
  • 00:09:39
    but out of care. Slowly, his symptoms
  • 00:09:41
    improved. The pressure eased. His sleep
  • 00:09:44
    got better. And more than that,
  • 00:09:46
    something in his eyes lit up again. He
  • 00:09:49
    was reconnected to a part of himself he
  • 00:09:51
    thought had been put to rest.
  • 00:09:54
    The price of neglecting this isn't just
  • 00:09:56
    a few bad nights of sleep. It's chronic
  • 00:09:59
    discomfort. It's medication you might
  • 00:10:01
    not need. It's surgery down the road.
  • 00:10:04
    And yes, it could be a higher risk for
  • 00:10:06
    cancer. All because of a belief that a
  • 00:10:08
    man your age should no longer claim this
  • 00:10:10
    part of his
  • 00:10:11
    health. You wouldn't ignore your heart.
  • 00:10:14
    You wouldn't ignore your blood pressure.
  • 00:10:16
    Don't ignore your prostate. Now, what if
  • 00:10:19
    I told you that the emotional shame men
  • 00:10:21
    feel around this years of guilt,
  • 00:10:24
    silence, and discomfort about touching
  • 00:10:25
    themselves actually makes the physical
  • 00:10:28
    symptoms
  • 00:10:30
    worse? Because that's exactly what the
  • 00:10:33
    next secret reveals. And once you
  • 00:10:35
    understand the connection between
  • 00:10:36
    emotional repression and physical
  • 00:10:38
    decline, you may never look at your body
  • 00:10:40
    the same way again. Secret three, shame
  • 00:10:44
    around self-touch damages your mental
  • 00:10:46
    health.
  • 00:10:48
    There's a certain silence that lives in
  • 00:10:50
    a lot of older men. I see it all the
  • 00:10:52
    time in my office. It shows up not in
  • 00:10:54
    what they say, but in what they don't.
  • 00:10:57
    It's the way their eyes shift when I ask
  • 00:10:59
    about sexual habits. The way their
  • 00:11:01
    shoulders sink when the word
  • 00:11:02
    masturbation comes up. The way they
  • 00:11:04
    laugh it off, change the subject, or
  • 00:11:07
    tell me, "Doc, that's not something I do
  • 00:11:09
    anymore. That was for when I was
  • 00:11:11
    younger." But I can hear the subtext.
  • 00:11:14
    It's not that they stopped because they
  • 00:11:16
    wanted to. It's that somewhere along the
  • 00:11:18
    way, they were taught it was wrong to
  • 00:11:20
    keep
  • 00:11:21
    going. And let me be honest with you,
  • 00:11:24
    this kind of shame, quiet and unspoken,
  • 00:11:27
    is one of the most dangerous forces
  • 00:11:29
    acting against your health
  • 00:11:31
    today. For decades, many of you were
  • 00:11:34
    raised in a time when touching yourself
  • 00:11:36
    was called dirty, sinful, weak. You were
  • 00:11:39
    punished, ridiculed, or made to feel
  • 00:11:41
    embarrassed. And those early messages,
  • 00:11:43
    they didn't disappear. They just went
  • 00:11:45
    underground. They sat in your nervous
  • 00:11:48
    system, deep in your bones, quietly
  • 00:11:50
    shaping your relationship with your
  • 00:11:52
    body, even
  • 00:11:53
    now. The result is a quiet withdrawal.
  • 00:11:57
    You begin to disconnect from physical
  • 00:11:59
    touch, even when you crave it. You begin
  • 00:12:01
    to see desire as something
  • 00:12:03
    inappropriate. You stop reaching for
  • 00:12:05
    yourself, not because you don't want to,
  • 00:12:07
    but because you've been conditioned to
  • 00:12:09
    feel that you shouldn't. And over time,
  • 00:12:12
    that disconnection becomes more than
  • 00:12:14
    emotional. It becomes
  • 00:12:16
    biological. Because here's what most men
  • 00:12:19
    don't know. Regular, healthy sexual
  • 00:12:22
    touch, including masturbation, supports
  • 00:12:24
    mental well-being in real, measurable
  • 00:12:27
    ways. It regulates cortisol. It boosts
  • 00:12:30
    dopamine. It fosters oxytocin, your
  • 00:12:33
    brain's trust and connection hormone. It
  • 00:12:36
    even helps with sleep, mood, and
  • 00:12:38
    cognitive function.
  • 00:12:40
    But shame disrupts all of that. Shame
  • 00:12:43
    tightens your muscles, raises your
  • 00:12:45
    stress hormones, creates guilt loops in
  • 00:12:47
    your mind that you don't even notice
  • 00:12:48
    anymore. Shame is a stressor. And
  • 00:12:51
    chronic stress, it's linked to anxiety,
  • 00:12:54
    depression, heart disease, immune
  • 00:12:56
    dysfunction, and even
  • 00:12:59
    dementia. I had a patient once, 72,
  • 00:13:02
    recently divorced, deeply depressed. He
  • 00:13:05
    wasn't on any medications, no major
  • 00:13:07
    health issues, but he was exhausted,
  • 00:13:09
    numb, isolated. He told me he hadn't had
  • 00:13:12
    any sexual activity, not with someone
  • 00:13:14
    else, not alone, in over a decade. I
  • 00:13:18
    just thought that chapter was closed, he
  • 00:13:20
    said. And underneath his words was a
  • 00:13:22
    quiet grief. Not for the loss of sex,
  • 00:13:25
    but for the loss of
  • 00:13:27
    self. We worked together slowly. No
  • 00:13:29
    pills, no drastic changes, just simple
  • 00:13:32
    exercises to reconnect him to his own
  • 00:13:34
    body without guilt, without expectation.
  • 00:13:37
    After a few weeks, something shifted. He
  • 00:13:40
    started walking taller. He was sleeping
  • 00:13:42
    better. He laughed again. His blood
  • 00:13:45
    pressure came down. He wasn't fixed. He
  • 00:13:48
    was
  • 00:13:49
    reconnected. That's the price shame asks
  • 00:13:51
    of you. It takes your vitality one slow
  • 00:13:54
    inch at a time. It tricks you into
  • 00:13:57
    thinking you're too old to feel alive.
  • 00:13:59
    But you're not. You are never too old to
  • 00:14:01
    touch yourself with kindness, with
  • 00:14:03
    dignity, with purpose. You are never too
  • 00:14:06
    old to feel
  • 00:14:07
    whole. And if shame can do that much
  • 00:14:10
    damage, what do you think happens when
  • 00:14:12
    hormonal decline adds fuel to the
  • 00:14:14
    fire? Because the next truth is one most
  • 00:14:17
    men never see coming. Your testosterone
  • 00:14:20
    doesn't just drop because you age. It
  • 00:14:22
    drops faster when you stop engaging with
  • 00:14:24
    your sexual self. altogether. And once
  • 00:14:27
    that hormonal balance begins to tilt, it
  • 00:14:29
    affects far more than your sex
  • 00:14:31
    drive. It changes how you think, how you
  • 00:14:34
    move, how you live. And that's exactly
  • 00:14:37
    what we're going to uncover
  • 00:14:39
    next. If you're still with me and
  • 00:14:41
    finding this valuable, type the number
  • 00:14:43
    one in the comments to let me know
  • 00:14:45
    you're here and engaged. Now, let's
  • 00:14:47
    continue with the fourth insight. This
  • 00:14:49
    one may surprise you. Secret four.
  • 00:14:53
    Testosterone is stimulated by sexual
  • 00:14:55
    activity, even
  • 00:14:57
    solo. I want to tell you something that
  • 00:15:00
    most men only find out when it's already
  • 00:15:02
    too late. Something I wish every man
  • 00:15:04
    over 60 could hear clearly without
  • 00:15:06
    embarrassment or
  • 00:15:08
    doubt. Testosterone, the very hormone
  • 00:15:11
    that fuels your energy, strength, drive,
  • 00:15:14
    confidence, and sexual desire, doesn't
  • 00:15:16
    just slowly fade away because of age.
  • 00:15:19
    That's what you've been led to believe.
  • 00:15:21
    But here's the truth. I've learned after
  • 00:15:23
    decades working with men just like you.
  • 00:15:25
    Testosterone also drops when you stop
  • 00:15:28
    living like a man who still wants to
  • 00:15:29
    feel
  • 00:15:30
    alive. When sexual energy is ignored,
  • 00:15:34
    suppressed, or buried under years of
  • 00:15:36
    shame and inactivity, your body begins
  • 00:15:38
    to turn the dial down on its own
  • 00:15:40
    masculinity. It says, "He doesn't need
  • 00:15:42
    this anymore." And it starts
  • 00:15:45
    reallocating resources, redirecting
  • 00:15:47
    hormones, slowing blood flow, conserving
  • 00:15:50
    energy. Your muscle tone fades, your
  • 00:15:53
    belly grows, your sleep worsens, and
  • 00:15:55
    your spark, that edge that used to make
  • 00:15:57
    you feel like yourself, begins to
  • 00:15:59
    vanish. Not because you're old, but
  • 00:16:02
    because your body has stopped being
  • 00:16:03
    reminded that you're still here, still
  • 00:16:05
    alive, still capable of
  • 00:16:08
    desire. I remember a man named Frank,
  • 00:16:11
    73, retired firefighter, used to be all
  • 00:16:15
    strength and presence. When he first
  • 00:16:17
    came to me, he was slumped, tired, told
  • 00:16:20
    me he hadn't felt like himself in years.
  • 00:16:22
    I'm just slowing down, he said. But I
  • 00:16:25
    looked at his labs. His testosterone was
  • 00:16:28
    barely above clinical deficiency. And
  • 00:16:30
    when I asked him about sexual activity,
  • 00:16:32
    he just shook his head. I don't see the
  • 00:16:34
    point
  • 00:16:35
    anymore. That belief right there is the
  • 00:16:39
    real threat. Not the number on the
  • 00:16:41
    calendar, but the moment you stop seeing
  • 00:16:43
    your sexuality as a living, breathing
  • 00:16:45
    part of who you are. I helped Frank
  • 00:16:48
    slowly re-engage, not with anyone else,
  • 00:16:50
    but with himself. Simple practices, no
  • 00:16:54
    shame, just presence. And over the next
  • 00:16:57
    few months, not only did his hormone
  • 00:16:59
    levels improve, his posture changed, his
  • 00:17:01
    voice carried more weight, he started
  • 00:17:03
    lifting again, his eyes lit up when he
  • 00:17:06
    talked.
  • 00:17:08
    You see, the body responds to what you
  • 00:17:10
    give attention to. When you ignore your
  • 00:17:12
    sexual self, your testosterone listens.
  • 00:17:15
    But when you reawaken it, even through
  • 00:17:17
    solo intentional touch, you're sending a
  • 00:17:20
    signal to your brain, I still need this.
  • 00:17:23
    I still want to feel. And the brain
  • 00:17:25
    responds by turning systems back on that
  • 00:17:28
    had been dimmed for
  • 00:17:29
    years. This isn't just theory. We've
  • 00:17:32
    seen studies showing short-term boosts
  • 00:17:34
    in testosterone following sexual
  • 00:17:36
    stimulation, even solo. We've seen how
  • 00:17:39
    erotic imagination, physical engagement,
  • 00:17:42
    and even anticipation can affect hormone
  • 00:17:45
    regulation, mood, and motivation. Your
  • 00:17:48
    body is built to respond to pleasure, to
  • 00:17:50
    connection, to presence. And when you
  • 00:17:52
    give it nothing, it slowly starts
  • 00:17:54
    offering nothing
  • 00:17:56
    back. The cost, it's higher than most
  • 00:17:59
    men realize. Low testosterone has been
  • 00:18:02
    tied not just to fatigue and sexual
  • 00:18:04
    dysfunction, but to heart disease,
  • 00:18:06
    diabetes, cognitive decline, depression,
  • 00:18:10
    even a shorter lifespan. It is not just
  • 00:18:12
    a number. It's a vital marker of how
  • 00:18:15
    engaged you are with life
  • 00:18:17
    itself. And the worst part, most men
  • 00:18:20
    never know how far they've drifted from
  • 00:18:22
    themselves until it feels almost
  • 00:18:24
    impossible to get back.
  • 00:18:27
    But there is a way back and it begins
  • 00:18:30
    not with medication or surgery, but with
  • 00:18:32
    reclaiming your own connection to your
  • 00:18:34
    body on your terms, in your space
  • 00:18:37
    without guilt. This is about reminding
  • 00:18:39
    your biology that you're still in the
  • 00:18:41
    game.
  • 00:18:43
    And if that surprises you, just wait
  • 00:18:45
    until you hear what I'm about to share
  • 00:18:47
    next, because there's something even
  • 00:18:49
    more critical than testosterone, and
  • 00:18:52
    most men are quietly damaging it every
  • 00:18:54
    time they touch themselves the wrong
  • 00:18:56
    way. Secret five, erectile function is a
  • 00:18:59
    use it or lose it
  • 00:19:01
    system. There's a quiet lie that many
  • 00:19:04
    men come to believe after 60. It sounds
  • 00:19:06
    like this. If I'm not having sex, then I
  • 00:19:09
    don't need to worry about erections
  • 00:19:11
    anymore. I've heard it countless times,
  • 00:19:13
    men brushing off concern about their
  • 00:19:15
    function because they think they've aged
  • 00:19:17
    out of needing it. But let me tell you
  • 00:19:19
    something most doctors don't say plainly
  • 00:19:21
    enough. Erectile function is not just
  • 00:19:24
    about sex. It's about blood flow, nerve
  • 00:19:26
    health, cardiovascular integrity, and
  • 00:19:30
    longevity. I once had a patient, Harold,
  • 00:19:33
    69 years old, strong history, smart man,
  • 00:19:36
    but he'd gone 5 or 6 years without a
  • 00:19:38
    single erection. Not because he
  • 00:19:40
    couldn't, but because he thought there
  • 00:19:42
    was no reason to. His wife had passed.
  • 00:19:44
    He wasn't dating. And he figured that
  • 00:19:46
    part of life was just over. What he
  • 00:19:48
    didn't realize was that his body wasn't
  • 00:19:50
    just waiting around for him to decide to
  • 00:19:52
    come back to it. It was shutting things
  • 00:19:55
    down. Here's what most men don't
  • 00:19:58
    understand. The penis is like any other
  • 00:20:00
    muscle and vascular structure in the
  • 00:20:02
    body. If you don't use it, the tissues
  • 00:20:05
    lose elasticity. Blood vessels stiffen.
  • 00:20:08
    Oxygen flow decreases. Micro tears and
  • 00:20:11
    fibrosis, the hardening of soft tissue
  • 00:20:14
    start to set in. And eventually, even if
  • 00:20:16
    you want to use it again, it doesn't
  • 00:20:18
    respond the way it once did. Not because
  • 00:20:21
    of age, but because of
  • 00:20:23
    disuse. This is where the cost comes in,
  • 00:20:26
    and it's steep. When regular erections
  • 00:20:29
    stop, the smooth muscle in the penis
  • 00:20:31
    begins to atrophy. The delicate network
  • 00:20:33
    of blood vessels responsible for
  • 00:20:35
    engorgment becomes less efficient.
  • 00:20:37
    Nitric oxide, a vital chemical for
  • 00:20:39
    triggering erections, diminishes. And
  • 00:20:41
    here's the part no one tells you. This
  • 00:20:44
    happens whether you're trying to be
  • 00:20:45
    sexually active or not. It's biology. If
  • 00:20:48
    your body doesn't experience regular
  • 00:20:50
    arousal and engorgment, it assumes the
  • 00:20:52
    system is
  • 00:20:54
    obsolete. And over time, the damage is
  • 00:20:57
    not just physical, it's psychological.
  • 00:20:59
    Because as the body loses its capacity,
  • 00:21:01
    the mind begins to follow. Confidence
  • 00:21:04
    erodess. self-worth slips. You feel less
  • 00:21:07
    like yourself, not because of age, but
  • 00:21:10
    because your body is no longer
  • 00:21:11
    responding to the identity you once
  • 00:21:13
    carried. For many men, this leads to
  • 00:21:16
    withdrawal, depression, even early signs
  • 00:21:18
    of cognitive slowing. I've watched it
  • 00:21:21
    happen, not overnight, but slowly,
  • 00:21:23
    quietly, and completely
  • 00:21:26
    preventable. So, what can you do? You
  • 00:21:28
    can remind your body that it still
  • 00:21:30
    matters, that this system is still
  • 00:21:32
    needed. And you can do that without a
  • 00:21:34
    partner, without pressure, without
  • 00:21:36
    shame. Regular erections, whether
  • 00:21:39
    through self- stimulation or even
  • 00:21:41
    nonsexual arousal, keep blood flowing,
  • 00:21:43
    tissues oxygenated, and neural pathways
  • 00:21:46
    alive. This isn't about chasing pleasure
  • 00:21:49
    for its own sake. It's about preserving
  • 00:21:51
    a core part of your physical health and
  • 00:21:53
    identity.
  • 00:21:55
    The act of maintaining erectile function
  • 00:21:57
    is about more than sex. It's a message
  • 00:22:00
    to your body that you're still engaged,
  • 00:22:02
    still connected, still
  • 00:22:04
    living. And don't get me wrong, I
  • 00:22:07
    understand how easy it is to fall into
  • 00:22:09
    silence, especially when society tells
  • 00:22:11
    you that after a certain age, you're
  • 00:22:13
    supposed to go quiet. But silence has a
  • 00:22:15
    cost and your body keeps the score.
  • 00:22:19
    Now, you might be wondering, if
  • 00:22:21
    erections are that important, what else
  • 00:22:23
    could you be doing that interferes with
  • 00:22:24
    your ability to get and keep them
  • 00:22:27
    naturally? And that brings us to
  • 00:22:29
    something even more damaging than
  • 00:22:31
    inactivity, the modern addiction most
  • 00:22:33
    older men don't recognize until it's
  • 00:22:35
    rewired their brain. In the next
  • 00:22:38
    section, we're going to talk about how
  • 00:22:40
    pornography, yes, even the harmless
  • 00:22:42
    kind, can silently steal your
  • 00:22:44
    sensitivity, your arousal, and your joy.
  • 00:22:48
    Secret six, porn changes your brain, but
  • 00:22:51
    you can take
  • 00:22:53
    control. I want to talk to you about
  • 00:22:55
    something that's often left in the
  • 00:22:56
    shadows, especially for older men.
  • 00:22:59
    Pornography. Now, I know just saying the
  • 00:23:02
    word can make some of you shift in your
  • 00:23:03
    seat, maybe even want to look away. But
  • 00:23:06
    if you're still with me, I'm asking you
  • 00:23:08
    to hear this with open ears and an open
  • 00:23:10
    heart, because what I'm about to say
  • 00:23:12
    could very well change the way you view
  • 00:23:14
    your mind, your body, and your
  • 00:23:16
    masculinity.
  • 00:23:18
    I've had men in their 60s and 70s sit
  • 00:23:20
    across from me and admit they still
  • 00:23:22
    watch porn. Not because they're
  • 00:23:24
    obsessed, but because it's one of the
  • 00:23:25
    few ways they still feel something. Many
  • 00:23:28
    of them live alone. Some are divorced.
  • 00:23:30
    Others are widowed. They're not chasing
  • 00:23:32
    thrills. They're chasing connection, or
  • 00:23:35
    at least the memory of
  • 00:23:36
    it. But here's what almost none of them
  • 00:23:39
    realize. The kind of pornography
  • 00:23:41
    available today is nothing like what
  • 00:23:43
    they were first exposed to in their 20s.
  • 00:23:46
    What used to be static images or soft
  • 00:23:48
    visual cues has become a flood of
  • 00:23:50
    high-speed, high stimulation, instant
  • 00:23:52
    gratification content. And the human
  • 00:23:55
    brain, especially an aging one, isn't
  • 00:23:57
    built to process that kind of overload
  • 00:23:59
    without
  • 00:24:01
    consequences. Every time you watch porn,
  • 00:24:04
    especially the more extreme or
  • 00:24:05
    fast-paced kind, your brain releases
  • 00:24:07
    dopamine, a chemical associated with
  • 00:24:10
    motivation, reward, and pleasure. But
  • 00:24:12
    over time, repeated exposure
  • 00:24:15
    desensitizes your brain's response to
  • 00:24:17
    natural stimuli. It becomes harder to
  • 00:24:19
    feel aroused by simple real life touch.
  • 00:24:22
    You begin to need more intensity, more
  • 00:24:24
    novelty just to feel anything at all.
  • 00:24:27
    That's not just about taste. It's about
  • 00:24:29
    neurochemistry. It's about your wiring
  • 00:24:31
    being altered by
  • 00:24:33
    repetition. And when your brain is
  • 00:24:35
    conditioned to expect artificial
  • 00:24:38
    exaggerated stimulation, your body
  • 00:24:40
    follows. Erections become less
  • 00:24:42
    responsive. Orgasm becomes more
  • 00:24:44
    difficult. Some men even develop full-on
  • 00:24:47
    porn-induced erectile dysfunction where
  • 00:24:49
    they're able to perform only with porn
  • 00:24:51
    and not at all with a real partner or in
  • 00:24:54
    solo moments without
  • 00:24:55
    it. The cost of this goes far beyond the
  • 00:24:58
    bedroom. I've seen men spiral into
  • 00:25:00
    shame, anxiety, frustration. They start
  • 00:25:03
    to believe they're broken. They
  • 00:25:05
    withdraw. They feel defeated. And
  • 00:25:07
    tragically, they never connect the dots.
  • 00:25:10
    They never realize it was the very thing
  • 00:25:12
    they were turning to for relief that was
  • 00:25:14
    slowly robbing them of their
  • 00:25:17
    vitality. But here's what I want every
  • 00:25:19
    man listening to understand. This is not
  • 00:25:22
    irreversible. You are not broken. You
  • 00:25:25
    are retrainable. Your brain, even after
  • 00:25:27
    60, still has the capacity to heal, to
  • 00:25:30
    reset, to rediscover what real grounded
  • 00:25:33
    arousal feels like. But that healing
  • 00:25:36
    begins when you step away from
  • 00:25:38
    artificial highs and allow your body to
  • 00:25:40
    reconnect with reality, with presence,
  • 00:25:43
    sensation, imagination, and yes, even
  • 00:25:47
    silence. Some men choose to take a
  • 00:25:49
    30-day break from all visual
  • 00:25:51
    stimulation. Others ease into it more
  • 00:25:53
    slowly. What matters is that you begin
  • 00:25:56
    to rebuild your nervous systems
  • 00:25:57
    relationship to pleasure on your terms.
  • 00:26:00
    The goal isn't to give up pleasure. It's
  • 00:26:02
    to reclaim it, to make it your own
  • 00:26:04
    again, to feel something
  • 00:26:07
    real. Now, if porn has dulled your
  • 00:26:10
    sensitivity, the next secret might hit
  • 00:26:12
    even harder. Because while digital
  • 00:26:14
    content can hijack your brain, isolation
  • 00:26:17
    can hijack your spirit. And the final
  • 00:26:19
    truth I'll share with you may be the
  • 00:26:21
    most important of all. Not about
  • 00:26:23
    technique or chemistry, but about what
  • 00:26:25
    happens to a man's body when he stops
  • 00:26:27
    being touched altogether.
  • 00:26:29
    Secret seven, the most dangerous
  • 00:26:32
    mistake.
  • 00:26:34
    Isolation. Of all the risks older men
  • 00:26:36
    face, there's one that's more dangerous
  • 00:26:38
    than declining testosterone, more
  • 00:26:41
    harmful than porn, and more damaging
  • 00:26:43
    than any physical symptom. And that's
  • 00:26:46
    isolation. Not just the kind that means
  • 00:26:48
    you live alone. I'm talking about a
  • 00:26:50
    deeper kind of silence. The kind where
  • 00:26:53
    you stop being touched, stop touching
  • 00:26:55
    yourself, stop connecting to your own
  • 00:26:57
    body. Not out of choice, but because
  • 00:27:00
    somewhere along the way, you were taught
  • 00:27:02
    that men your age are supposed to move
  • 00:27:04
    on from that part of
  • 00:27:06
    life. I remember a man named Peter. He
  • 00:27:09
    was 76, a retired engineer, polite, put
  • 00:27:12
    together, but there was something hollow
  • 00:27:15
    in his voice when he talked about his
  • 00:27:16
    day-to-day life. He told me he hadn't
  • 00:27:19
    been physically touched in over a year.
  • 00:27:21
    Not a hug, not a hand on the shoulder,
  • 00:27:23
    nothing. He didn't say it with sadness.
  • 00:27:26
    He said it with resignation. Like it was
  • 00:27:28
    simply a chapter that had
  • 00:27:30
    ended. What Peter didn't realize was
  • 00:27:33
    that touch is not a luxury. It's a
  • 00:27:35
    biological need. The human body, even at
  • 00:27:39
    60, 70, 80 years old, is wired for it.
  • 00:27:43
    When we go too long without physical
  • 00:27:45
    contact, our nervous system begins to
  • 00:27:47
    downshift. Oxytocin drops. Stress
  • 00:27:50
    hormones creep in. Blood pressure rises.
  • 00:27:53
    Sleep suffers, immune function weakens,
  • 00:27:56
    and most dangerous of all, the brain
  • 00:27:58
    begins to shut down emotional and
  • 00:28:00
    sensory circuits as a form of
  • 00:28:03
    protection. In other words, when we stop
  • 00:28:05
    being touched, we begin to go numb, not
  • 00:28:08
    just physically, but emotionally. We
  • 00:28:10
    lose a sense of aliveness. We stop
  • 00:28:13
    feeling the urgency to engage with the
  • 00:28:15
    world. And the tragedy is this happens
  • 00:28:17
    slowly, quietly. One day, you're just
  • 00:28:20
    skipping your routine. A week later,
  • 00:28:22
    you're avoiding mirrors. A month later,
  • 00:28:25
    you stop imagining anything pleasurable
  • 00:28:27
    at
  • 00:28:28
    all. And here's the part no one talks
  • 00:28:30
    about. Isolation often starts in the
  • 00:28:33
    bedroom. When a man stops touching
  • 00:28:35
    himself, not just for pleasure, but for
  • 00:28:38
    presence, for self-connection, his brain
  • 00:28:40
    begins to interpret that as a form of
  • 00:28:42
    emotional retreat. Over time, that
  • 00:28:45
    withdrawal becomes self-reinforcing.
  • 00:28:48
    He touches himself less, feels less, and
  • 00:28:50
    becomes convinced there's nothing left
  • 00:28:52
    to
  • 00:28:53
    feel. That's the real cost. Not just
  • 00:28:56
    lost erections or faded desire. It's the
  • 00:28:59
    slow fading of identity, of purpose, of
  • 00:29:02
    emotional sharpness. It's the quiet
  • 00:29:04
    death of connection. And this isolation
  • 00:29:07
    has been directly linked to depression,
  • 00:29:10
    heart disease, even early death. Not
  • 00:29:12
    because of age, but because of
  • 00:29:14
    abandonment. Not by others but by the
  • 00:29:18
    self. Now I want to be clear. This is
  • 00:29:21
    not about shaming anyone. Life happens,
  • 00:29:24
    loss happens, distance happens. But what
  • 00:29:27
    doesn't have to happen is surrender.
  • 00:29:29
    Because the act of touching yourself,
  • 00:29:31
    whether it's sexual or not, is not about
  • 00:29:34
    vanity or habit. It's about claiming
  • 00:29:36
    your body as still yours. About telling
  • 00:29:38
    your brain, your heart, your nervous
  • 00:29:41
    system, I'm still here. I still matter.
  • 00:29:45
    I still want to
  • 00:29:47
    feel. I've seen men come back to life
  • 00:29:49
    simply by giving themselves permission
  • 00:29:51
    to reconnect, to break the silence, to
  • 00:29:54
    return, to touch, to wake up the parts
  • 00:29:56
    that went quiet too soon. And when they
  • 00:29:58
    do, their posture changes. Their voice
  • 00:30:01
    returns. Their spark begins to flicker
  • 00:30:04
    again. And if you're still with me now,
  • 00:30:07
    if something in this speaks to you, then
  • 00:30:09
    what comes next may be the most
  • 00:30:11
    important part of
  • 00:30:12
    all. Because now that you've heard the
  • 00:30:15
    seven truths no one ever told you, I'm
  • 00:30:17
    going to show you how to begin again
  • 00:30:19
    step by step with a simple powerful
  • 00:30:22
    practice I give to my own patients. A
  • 00:30:24
    daily ritual that helps rewire your
  • 00:30:26
    body, rebuild sensitivity, and restore
  • 00:30:29
    what time and silence tried to take
  • 00:30:31
    away. Conclusion.
  • 00:30:34
    If you've made it this far, I want to
  • 00:30:36
    take a moment to speak to you, not just
  • 00:30:38
    as a doctor, but as a man who spent
  • 00:30:40
    decades sitting across from other men,
  • 00:30:42
    hearing their fears, their regrets, and
  • 00:30:45
    sometimes their quiet hopes. What we've
  • 00:30:48
    talked about today isn't just about
  • 00:30:50
    masturbation. It's about something much
  • 00:30:52
    deeper. It's about how you relate to
  • 00:30:54
    your body, how you carry your history,
  • 00:30:57
    and whether or not you're willing to
  • 00:30:58
    believe that your life, your sexual
  • 00:31:00
    life, your emotional life, your physical
  • 00:31:03
    life isn't over just because the world
  • 00:31:05
    told you it should
  • 00:31:07
    be. We started with the truth that
  • 00:31:09
    mindless masturbation can slowly train
  • 00:31:11
    your body into dysfunction, that rushing
  • 00:31:14
    through the motions, disconnected and
  • 00:31:16
    distracted, isn't harmless. It's
  • 00:31:18
    rewiring your brain and eroding your
  • 00:31:20
    sensitivity. We looked at how avoiding
  • 00:31:22
    ejaculation altogether can lead to
  • 00:31:24
    prostate congestion, inflammation, and
  • 00:31:27
    in some cases even increase the risk of
  • 00:31:29
    cancer. That your body was designed to
  • 00:31:31
    stay in motion and when it stops,
  • 00:31:34
    systems
  • 00:31:35
    suffer. We talked about the silent
  • 00:31:37
    poison of shame. How so many men still
  • 00:31:40
    carry guilt that isn't even theirs.
  • 00:31:42
    Guilt they inherited from culture,
  • 00:31:44
    religion, or family. Guilt that has no
  • 00:31:47
    place in a healthy man's relationship
  • 00:31:49
    with his own body.
  • 00:31:51
    We explored how low testosterone isn't
  • 00:31:54
    just something that happens with age,
  • 00:31:55
    but something that accelerates when you
  • 00:31:57
    stop engaging with your sexual self. And
  • 00:32:00
    how something as simple as solo touch
  • 00:32:02
    can start to turn that
  • 00:32:03
    tide. We talked about how your erection
  • 00:32:06
    isn't just a sexual function, but a sign
  • 00:32:08
    of vascular health. That it truly is a
  • 00:32:12
    use it or lose it system. That the cost
  • 00:32:14
    of ignoring it isn't just in the
  • 00:32:16
    bedroom. It's in your confidence, your
  • 00:32:18
    motivation, even your memory. Then we
  • 00:32:21
    open the door on porn, not to shame, but
  • 00:32:24
    to explain how it alters your brain's
  • 00:32:26
    chemistry. That it's not about morality,
  • 00:32:28
    it's about biology. That what once
  • 00:32:31
    sparked excitement can over time numb
  • 00:32:33
    you to
  • 00:32:35
    reality. And finally, we looked at the
  • 00:32:38
    most dangerous mistake of all,
  • 00:32:40
    isolation. When you stop touching, stop
  • 00:32:43
    being touched, stop connecting in any
  • 00:32:45
    way, the body begins to pull back, not
  • 00:32:48
    just from pleasure, but from purpose,
  • 00:32:51
    from emotion, from life
  • 00:32:53
    itself. What I want you to take away
  • 00:32:55
    from all this is simple. You're not
  • 00:32:58
    broken. You're not past the point, and
  • 00:33:01
    you're not alone. Every system in your
  • 00:33:04
    body, even now, wants to respond to
  • 00:33:06
    connection. Your brain still wants to
  • 00:33:09
    feel. Your heart still wants to open.
  • 00:33:11
    Your skin still wants to remember what
  • 00:33:13
    it means to be alive. And that journey
  • 00:33:15
    back doesn't require anyone else. It
  • 00:33:17
    starts with you. It starts with a
  • 00:33:20
    choice. To stop
  • 00:33:23
    shrinking. To stop apologizing for
  • 00:33:25
    wanting to feel good in your own
  • 00:33:28
    body. To stop believing the lie that age
  • 00:33:31
    makes you
  • 00:33:32
    invisible. You're not invisible. You're
  • 00:33:34
    still here. And what you do with that
  • 00:33:38
    matters. So, here's what I tell my
  • 00:33:40
    patients when they're ready to start
  • 00:33:41
    again. Not with pills, not with guilt,
  • 00:33:44
    but with presence. I give them a simple
  • 00:33:47
    daily practice, what I call the golden
  • 00:33:49
    protocol. 10 minutes a day, quiet,
  • 00:33:52
    intentional, respectful time to
  • 00:33:55
    reconnect with themselves. No agenda, no
  • 00:33:58
    pressure, just touch, breath, and
  • 00:34:00
    awareness. For some, it becomes a
  • 00:34:02
    morning ritual. For others, a bedtime
  • 00:34:04
    routine. But almost always, it becomes a
  • 00:34:07
    turning point.
  • 00:34:09
    Because when a man touches himself with
  • 00:34:11
    care, not out of habit or desperation,
  • 00:34:13
    but with curiosity, something shifts.
  • 00:34:17
    His body remembers, his mind softens.
  • 00:34:19
    His spark
  • 00:34:21
    returns. And maybe yours can,
  • 00:34:24
    too. This isn't just about reclaiming
  • 00:34:26
    your sexuality. It's about reclaiming
  • 00:34:29
    yourself. And that starts right here,
  • 00:34:32
    right now, with you.
