We invited our listeners to send us their burning questions, and we're thrilled to address them on our exciting new episode! There are so many intriguing topics that pique our interest, and we're eager to share that knowledge with you. Education is our top priority, and we're here to deliver valuable insights.

Join us as the Man Up Boys delve deep into fascinating subjects such as testosterone therapy, post-vasectomy pain syndrome, post-finasteride syndrome, pearly penile papules, and the impact of marijuana on fertility. Urologists, Dr. Justin Dubin and Dr. Kevin Chu, emphasize the significance of understanding these topics to enrich your life. With their expertise and insights, this episode aims to provide you with accurate information straight from the experts themselves.

It's essential to recognize that while testosterone therapy has its benefits, it also carries risks, just like any medication. Although testosterone is generally safe, it's crucial to be aware of its potential impact on fertility.

Moving on to post-vasectomy pain syndrome, it refers to intermittent or constant discomfort in one or both testicles lasting for at least three months following the procedure. This condition can interfere with your daily activities, and we'll delve deeper into its implications.

Post-finasteride syndrome is a phenomenon primarily observed in younger men who use the medication for alopecia. While this condition is more prevalent in younger individuals, it's crucial to understand its potential impact.

As for pearly penile papules, these are small, flesh-colored dots less than a millimeter in size typically found around the corona during puberty. It's essential to note that they don't cause pain, increase in size, or pose significant health risks. However, they can often be mistaken for genital warts, leading to unnecessary stress and concerns.

Lastly, we'll explore how marijuana affects fertility. Research suggests that marijuana usage can have adverse effects on sperm concentration, count, morphology, motility, viability, and fertilization capacity. Understanding these potential impacts is essential for those considering parenthood or seeking to expand their knowledge on the subject.
