How to Use the Penis Pump For Performance Anxiety
24 Feb 2026 · 0 min
In this solo podcast episode, Dr. Anne Truong, an intimate‑health physician and author of Erectile Dysfunction Fix, explains how vacuum erection devices (penis pumps) can be used to break the cycle of performance anxiety in men, especially those under 45 who lack medical causes for erectile dysfunction. She defines performance anxiety, describes its typical pattern (good morning erections but unreliable erections with a partner), and outlines the physiological benefits of a pump: rapid negative‑pressure erection, increased blood flow, oxygen delivery, muscle expansion, and prevention of fibrosis. Dr. Truong introduces the concept of “prehab” – using the pump daily or before a planned sexual encounter to prime the penis, build confidence, and reduce mental pressure. She gives practical instructions on timing, using a constriction ring, involving a partner for lubrication and pressure assistance, and integrating non‑penetrative intimacy during pump sessions. Safety warnings cover bleeding or clotting disorders and a history of priapism. The episode also promotes complementary lifestyle measures, notably a Mediterranean diet and the “Good Morning Wood Smoothie” to improve vascular health, and advertises her Get Wood Now program, a free ebook on common ED mistakes, and various product links (ednomore.com, goodmorningwoodsmoothie.com). The episode ends with calls to subscribe, review, and share the podcast.
This podcast is for you. The Modern Man I'm Dr. Anne Truong, your host. I'm an intimate health medical doctor and best selling author of the book Erectile Dysfunction Fix. I'll do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how it affects men of all ages and backgrounds. So let's get started and be sure to visit my website@sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more information and resources from the show. See you on the inside.
Foreign. Hello there modern man. If your body works, but your mind freezes when it's time to have sex, this video is for you. We're going to explain how penis pump help with performance anxiety and how you can use it to break down the pressure and and to overcome the performance anxiety. So what is performance anxiety? Performance anxiety is when it usually affect younger men from 45 and under because younger men usually don't have medical condition that predispose them to have ed. So older men have it because conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes and obesity tend to cause ed. But younger men usually don't have that because they're more resilient. So that's number one. And then number two is that you know you may have performance anxiety when you have good erection in the morning and then you can get an erection with masturbation, but then you have unreliable erection when you're with a partner. Or that when you're losing erection right before penetration. As soon as you start thinking about it whether you're going to be able to perform or not, and then it becomes a spiral of worry for one bad experience to more anxiety to that more erection problem. But what you need to know is that you need to break this pattern right away because you need to learn how to take the pressure off of the erection itself and retrain your brain and your body to feel safe and confident again. And it can be done. Now I have done a video before on how to use the penis pump as well. So we won't talk about the mechanic, we will kind of review about the benefits of the penis pump. Because the penis pump create the negative pressure in a cylinder where you can get an erection within a minute or so. And what that does is it brings an increasing blood flow to the penis and it brings oxygen to the penis to keep the penis muscle healthy, it expand the muscle to make it more flexible, to make it more adaptable to to get an erection. And then number two, it also expand the muscle to prevent fibrosis, which means scar tissue development in the Penis muscle because you don't have an erection, that muscle will get scar tissue which then prevent further erection in the future. And it's also rehabilitating in prying the penis as well. So if you plan to have sex that night, it's a good idea to use the penis pump the day because it's prime the penis and it gets the penis feeling like an erection. So it gives you that confidence. So that way you feel that okay, this is what the erection look like and I don't have to worry about it as well. And I call it prehab the penis before it actually get the erection. So by doing that it will remove the pressure to perform on demand. So that way you don't have to worry whether you can get it at this time. Will you be able to perform this time? It becomes like predictable, right? Because you already know you can get an erection in the penis pump and let you know this may be psychological and that it will kind of calm the brain from worry to more relaxation as well too. Where can you get the penis pump? You can get the penis pump@ednomore.com or check the link down below this video to get the penis pump so you can start exercising your penis again. Remember, you are only one pump away. Men struggling to stay hard. Most of the time it comes down to poor blood flow.

Or go to good morningwoodsmoothie.com so you can use the penis pump safely. It's a lot more safe than using Viagra and it primed the penis for blood flow later on. And you can integrate the penis pump as well with the sex. You can have your partner help you with the penis pump. Your partner can lubricate the pump. The partner can hold the cylinder to the bath to the penis, to the pubic area, and she can even help with pump pressure as well. The goal is to associate sexual stimulation with success and control instead of fear and failure. And then when you're doing the penis pump, think about doing non penetrative activities such as kissing, touching, oral sex and just being together enjoying one another. And remember, when you're doing this, you're also stimulating your penis and you're also relaxing your mind at the same time, which then will help with the performance Anxiety and the penis pump will give you that confidence that you can get that erection. So you can use your penis prompt right before sexual activity. And then you can put the constriction ring, which is the penis ring on the base of the cylinder. And after you get the full erection, you can just pull the constriction ring you down to the base of the cylinder, keep the erection and then remove the penis pump. I'm not currently in my home residence so I don't have the penis pump with me. But I've done many videos to show you how that is done. But what I want to tie into is that you can use the penis pump to prime the penis for sexual activity for the day. And you can do this by using the penis pump every day. And it keeps it healthy, it keeps it prime and it's ready to go. I also discussed about certain conditions you shouldn't use penis pump such as a bleeding disorder or clotting disorder or do you have any history of priapism? Where can you get the penis pump? You can get the penis pump@ednomore.com or check the link down below this video to get the penis pump so you can start exercising your penis again. Remember, you are only one pump away. Okay, Modern man. If you're struggling with weak erection, low energy, the food you eat could be the big part of the problem. One of the best research back ways to boost circulation, support healthy testosterone and improve sexual performance is the Mediterranean diet. It's packed with food that open up your blood vessel, lower inflammation and fuel your hormone naturally. I've seen men notice real improvement in both energy and erection within weeks when they shift to this style of eating. So check out this Mediterranean diet link right here below and get that as soon as you can. Stronger testosterone and better erection. So the end point is that it not only help you with ed, but the penis pump can also help you with getting more confident, also help you with performance anxiety. And you can get your partner involved in the activity that will then help you think about more of the moment and then join one another rather than whether you're able to get an erection that time. And it does work. We've seen patients use it and the best way to use it every day and particularly using when you know you can have sexual activity that night.
