In this solo podcast episode, Dr. Anne Truong, an intimate‑health physician and author of Erectile Dysfunction Fix, addresses men who experience intermittent, “hit‑or‑miss” erections. She explains that such erectile dysfunction (ED) is common between ages 35‑65 and is usually rooted in vascular health, stress, sleep, and lifestyle factors rather than a need for medication. Dr. Truong outlines practical, non‑pharmaceutical interventions: adopting a Mediterranean diet to boost nitric oxide and reduce inflammation, exercising at least 150 minutes per week, losing weight, quitting smoking or vaping, and ensuring seven or more hours of sleep to raise testosterone. She highlights warning signs that require professional evaluation—loss of morning erections, progressive weakness, or a history of diabetes, heart disease, prostate surgery, or nerve damage—and describes the specialist work‑up (blood panels, cholesterol, testosterone, penile Doppler ultrasound). Throughout, she promotes her own resources: a Mediterranean‑diet guide (eatfornoed.com), the Good Morning Wood Smoothie (goodmorningwoodsmoothie.com), the “Renew with Dr. Ann” program, and the “Get Wood Now Boost” course (course@getwoodnow.com). The episode ends with a call to action to visit her website, download a free ebook on common ED mistakes, subscribe, and share the podcast on social media.

Hello there modern Man. Do you find your erections are great one day and gone the next? Well, it's not random, it's almost always fixable without jumping straight to medication. Stay all the way to the end because I'm going to show you what is the real problem and what you can do to fix it. What is hit or miss really mean? Let me ask you this, are you still getting morning erection or your solo erection? Better than with a partner or without a partner? Is it worse when you're stressed or with a new partner? Well, let me tell you this. Intermittent ed sometime between the age of 35 to 65 is actually common and it very often improved with just simple lifestyle changes and reducing your stress. So let's talk about fixing the plumbing. Eating is just an early warning sign of vascular disease or really blood flow problem that the blood flow is not as strong as it used to be. And so oftentimes just increasing your exercise duration to 150 minutes a week or exercise it 30 minutes three to four times a week will actually improve your erection and overall blood flow. And even adding in a Mediterranean diet with adding more fish and olive oil and eating more vegetables and less processed food will increase your nitric oxide and increasing blood flow. You can check out the Mediterranean diet. I put a clear link on there down below right here. Go to eatfornoed.com to get your Mediterranean diet. And so the one thing to consider is that once you eat the Mediterranean diet and exercise, you can actually lose a little bit of weight. And when you do lose a little bit of weight, it will actually reduce your ED risk. And then evaluating whether you should stop smoking or vaping. It will also help with less damage to the blood vessels and also stop the damage to the blood flow because stopping smoking and vaping is going to be your highest roi move to increase your blood flow. Yes, I know it's hard and I know that it's challenging. My mom was a smoker and it actually caused her to have a heart attack that caused her to die when she was 57. Years old. I know how hard it was and I watch her struggle with stopping smoking and then returning again after a year or two. So what I want you to do is pause and rate yourself 1 to 10. What you're going to do is you're going to start with changing your diet, the Mediterranean diet.
