☆ Use It or Lose It? Mouse Study Reveals Key to Healthy Erections

By Ernie Mundell HealthDay ReporterHealthDayFRIDAY, Feb. 9, 2024 (HealthDay News) -- Is 'practice makes perfect' true for the male erection, too? The key seemed to lie in connective tissue cells called fibroblasts. So, "an increased frequency of erections leads to more fibroblasts that enable erection," he said. The opposite also appeared to be true: "A decreased frequency results in fewer of these cells," Göritz said. "This is not something we have shown in our study, so it is a bit speculative, but a reasonable interpretation is that it gets easier if you have regular erections,” Göritz said.

Bryan Johnson is trying to reverse aging through an experimental project that costs up to $2 million a year. A Time Magazine profile found that the biotech CEO's bedroom is almost completely empty. The only objects in his bedroom are his bed, a laser face shield, and a device to attach to his genitals to measure nighttime erections. No work, no reading," Johnson told Time Magazine's Charlotte Alter. Scientists told Insider's Marianne Guenot and Lloyd Lee in February that many aspects of his routine have unclear health benefits.

☆ How doctors create a penis from a vagina and why one trans man changed his mind about which surgery to get

Creating a penis from a vagina is more complicated than turning a penis into a vagina. Then, they must define their priorities for their penis, Horwitz said. Then, during a meta, doctors cut ligaments around the newly enlarged clitoris, allowing it to extend away from the body. Phalloplasty creates a penis from a skin graftScar left over from a skin graft taken for a phalloplasty surgery. Once they've formed the neo-phallus (new penis), doctors surgically connect it to the genitals' nerve and vascular system.
☆ A 45-year-old biotech CEO may have reduced his biological age by at least 5 years through a rigorous medical program that can cost up to $2 million a year, Bloomberg reported

Bryan Johnson, a biotech founder, aims to have the body of an 18-year-old, Bloomberg reported. He and a team of experts started a program called Project Blueprint to unlock the key to aging. Test results show that Johnson has the heart of a 37-year-old, according to the report. While it's still in its experimental stage and is constantly being tweaked, the health program consists of an intense daily regimen of carefully curated supplements, meals, exercise, and a slew of bodily tests. He exercises daily, with three high-intensity workouts a week, and goes through blood tests, MRIs, and colonoscopies each month, Bloomberg reported.
☆ I perform vasectomies in Texas. I've had a huge increase in patients post-Roe — and a lot of them are young and childless.

Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade earlier this year, there's been an uptick in the number of vasectomy requests at my clinic. In the two days immediately following the overturning of Roe, we received 150 vasectomy appointment requests. We were averaging five or six electronic appointment requests for vasectomy consultations per day before the overturning of Roe. I tell my patients that the vasectomy is meant to be permanent sterilizationWhile I love doing reversals, they're not 100%. I think vasectomies are fertility medicineThis is a procedure that I like to do and I think I'm good at.
