Today we explore common Men's Health concerns, not least of which is Erectile Dysfunction (ED) - with SPECIAL GUEST Mr. Everton Lashley, (roundhaypharmacybarbados@gmail.com) , who is an eminent licensed pharmacist and dear friend and mentor, as he generously discusses and additionally advises on the connection between ED and heart health, it's social impact and relationship dysfunction, as well as the dangers of popular over the counter drugs which may sometimes cause more harm than good.
ED is:
🤫💙The issue that scares you, shames you
🤫💙The issue that you mention LAST of all at your doctor's appointment
🤫💙Yet, the ONLY issue that MAY bring you to the doc!
What is ED?
Erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence, is the inability to get and maintain an erection firm enough for sex.
There are many reasons for this happening occasionally, but if erectile dysfunction is an ongoing issue, it can cause distress, affect your self-confidence and create disruption in your intimate relationship
It is not all "down there" , however. ED may actually be a warning sign of serious underlying health conditions that need treatment, including heart disease.
This is because any condition that affects blood flow to the body in general (arteries specifically), may also impede blood flow to the glans penis, hence, ED.
This includes the Non Communicable Diseases (NCDs), of hypertension, diabetes and high cholesterol, and especially when these are uncontrolled, (heart attack and stroke are just two deadly outcomes).
🛑BUT this is not just "AN OLD PEOPLE's DISEASE":⚠️⚠️
👇🏽
💥💥NOTE: Younger and younger - even males as young as 20s and 30s may have this deadly combination of ED and heart disease!💥💥
ED symptoms might include persistent:
💙Trouble getting an erection
💙Trouble maintaining an erection
💙Reduced sexual desire
There may also be emotional reasons for ED .
Whatever the cause, the issue can so negatively impact your life at all levels, not to mention place you in danger from the afore-mentioned consequences of NCDs.

Welcome back!
Gents!! THIS special month is for YOU! From me👩🏽⚕️😊👍🏽💎🩺💙
It is a worldwide fact that in general, men do NOT seek medical advice on a routine/annual basis. WHY?? ( we ladies and doctors as)?
This November- let's BREAK that cycle:
This 1st of November, the focus is on screening after 65 years.
What is recommended?
Research advises the following (adapted from
💙Physical exam: blood pressure, height and weight, waist circumference and prostate exam.
💙Blood screening: fasting blood sugar, fasting lipid profile, thyroid function especially after 70.
💙Vaccines: influenza, covid-19, Haemophilus Influenza A and B; Hepatitis A/B, Tdap, Pneumovax/Prevnar and Shingles (some)
💙STI screening: based on risk.
💙Especially if there is even a trace of memory impairment- Dementia Screen
💙Cardiovascular screening:: which can range from basic ECG/EKG, depending on the risk and any symptoms
💙💙Cancer screening: PROSTATE, colon ( lung as well as skin exam- depending on your overall risk)
💙Osteoporosis: screening should be considered in men over 70, men who lose height over time or have a low impact fracture.
💙Fall risk assessment should be completed.
💙 DON' T neglect your Eye exam.
