Episode 51: Men’s Health: Male Fertility, Vasectomies and Family Planning with Dr. Justin Dubin & Dr. Kevin Chu @themanuppodcast


We often speak so much about women and fertility but it is important that we also begin destigmatizing conversations around men's health! Rachael kicks off this episode with a conversation with her husband Marley about his decision to get a vasectomy several months ago and what that process was like.


Next, Rachael has on doctors Justin Dubin and Kevin Chu to discuss all about male infertility, health, and the details of what to expect with a vasectomy procedure!


Here’s what they discuss inside this episode:

  • Highlighting the role of men in fertility
  • How common male infertility REALLY is
  • The various factors that can cause male infertility
  • Genetic conditions, anatomy issues, medications, and lifestyle choices impact on men's health
  • Tips for improving fertility outcomes
  • All about the vasectomy procedure: the benefits and who is a good candidate for it
  • Addressing common concerns with pain and recovery for vasectomies
  • Are vasectomies reversible?
  • And so much more!

  • Dr. Justin Dubin and Dr. Kevin Chu are the current co-hosts of the men’s health podcast Man Up: A Doctor’s Guide to Men’s Health. They are fellowship trained urologists with focuses in Male Infertility and Sexual Medicine who bring their passion about men’s health and education with the goal of improving both the lives of men and their partners. Dr. Chu and Dubin have published multiple papers on male infertility and sexual health, and have been quoted in the NY Times, Insider, GQ and Men’s Health. Dr. Dubin is currently the Men’s Health specialist in South Florida and Dr. Chu is a Men's Health specialist in Los Angeles, California.
