6.75 -> erectile dysfunction can be defined
8.92 -> broadly as any
11.96 -> of a man to obtain or maintain an
14.36 -> erection of sufficient quality in order
18.02 -> to complete a sexual intercourse so when
21.2 -> you tell a guy with the true definition
23.54 -> of erectile dysfunction is most guys are
27.08 -> actually surprised to learn that they do
29 -> have Edie how common of a problem is
31.94 -> this well it's it's a lot more common
33.65 -> than men think we know that erectile
37.1 -> dysfunction affects approximately 1 in 5
39.65 -> men in this country which amounts to
41.93 -> about 30 million men in America
47.239 -> so we
48.73 -> to refer to erectile dysfunction as the
53.05 -> canary in the coalmine or the the
55.54 -> warning sign or we sometimes say your
58.18 -> penis is the window to your heart
60.03 -> because the disease process the
62.949 -> underlying disease process that causes
64.78 -> erectile dysfunction is similar to the
67.6 -> disease process that causes heart
70 -> disease strokes and peripheral vascular
72.1 -> disease and that's atherosclerosis or
73.93 -> hardening and narrowing of the arteries
75.99 -> and we should almost be fortunate that
79.509 -> it affects our penises before it affects
82.03 -> our heart or our brains or our legs
83.77 -> because when it affects those organs
86.32 -> those can be life-threatening whereas
88 -> when it affects your your erectile
90.25 -> function it's more of a lifestyle issue
92.399 -> so because of this association between
95.89 -> erectile dysfunction and other more
100.03 -> serious medical conditions it's
102.789 -> important to identify these other more
105.429 -> serious medical conditions when guys
107.5 -> complain of edie currently we probably
110.77 -> see a lot of men who look - look look
116.08 -> for alternative sources for their
117.64 -> information when it comes to
119.25 -> understanding their condition and
121.69 -> treatment for example you only have to
124.69 -> google the word viagra or erectile
127.09 -> dysfunction and you'll see there's
128.679 -> probably about 30 million hits on google
130.84 -> for these keywords and that's because
133.3 -> it's a huge market and these companies
137.5 -> and people realize that unsuspecting men
140.8 -> are going to go to them before they go
142.569 -> talk to their doctors so a lot of men
146.68 -> are looking for quick fixes because
152.02 -> they're unaware of the resources that
154.75 -> are available sometimes in their own
156.04 -> communities and they're also embarrassed
158.68 -> by this issue
163.12 -> so one of the things that we're learning
165.25 -> is that men who have erectile
169.36 -> dysfunction
170.43 -> several years later go on to develop
173.34 -> cardiac problems like heart attacks were
176.17 -> needing bypass surgery or needing stents
178.41 -> so we think it's because the arteries in
182.769 -> the penis are smaller that we see that
185.53 -> problem sooner and the arteries and the
187.989 -> coronary arteries the heart arteries are
189.79 -> a bit bigger so we see it several years
192.37 -> later so men who have impotence due to
197.47 -> that problem the arteries in the penis
199.959 -> are at very high risk for developing a
203.65 -> problem with their heart arteries later
206.709 -> usually within two to five years if you
209.98 -> look at the younger men that is the men
212.92 -> under age 50 most of the erectile
217.239 -> dysfunction there is due to the an
219.819 -> arterial problem
224.16 -> the thought behind it is that men can be
227.28 -> seen for this problem erectile
230.73 -> dysfunction and any other problem and if
233.64 -> they come in for erectile dysfunction
235.5 -> they get evaluate a complete evaluation
239.15 -> completely comprehensive by a
241.8 -> board-certified urologist and if
244.77 -> necessary they will also be seen by a
247.29 -> board-certified cardiologist so the the
251.55 -> two specialties can combine to really
254.76 -> give the patient exactly what they need
258.03 -> so far as not only the drugs but a
261.299 -> complete evaluation and the right care
264.36 -> then let's face it men make up 50% of
267.18 -> the population and they do have unique
269.88 -> needs erectile dysfunction prostate
274.26 -> enlargement testosterone deficiency
276.72 -> Peyronie's disease these are very common
279.99 -> problems that we see in men's health
283.05 -> arena and they're oftentimes overlooked
286.32 -> or neglected because of the sensitive
288.93 -> nature of these conditions we want this
291.78 -> place to be one-stop shopping for guys
293.7 -> and we know that sometimes guys are
297.06 -> pressed for time they don't want to go
298.83 -> to different doctor's appointments so we
301.29 -> really wanted to put everything under
302.58 -> one roof
306.31 -> well I wouldn't have a feature if I
311.89 -> hadn't to come here dr. Scott
313.59 -> recommended that I come see dr. Cartman
317.86 -> and you know I knew nothing about the
320.77 -> program that I'm in now and and I've got
324.85 -> a future I'm feeling good and healthy
328.93 -> and getting better every day
331.36 -> oh I'm happy with all the people at El
333.91 -> Camino they taking care of me
