This week on the The Armor Men's Health Show, Donna Lee welcomes Stephen Macenas, a Physician Associate with Urology Specialists of Austin, to answer an important listener question:

“Are there holistic options for treating erectile dysfunction?”

Stephen walks us through how providers take a whole-body approach when evaluating ED. That includes looking at blood flow, lifestyle habits, supplements, smoking status, sleep quality, nutrition, and overall cardiovascular health. He explains how these factors play a key role in the holistic urology care provided by the team.

One supplement often recommended to support healthy blood flow is Arterosil, a cardiovascular supplement that many of the practice’s providers consider a strong starting point when exploring supplement-based ED support. Stephen also discusses several other supplement options that may help improve circulation and vascular health.

Later in the episode, Stephen shares details about his newest passion project: Green Dreams Health, a medical cannabis practice based in Austin. Through Green Dreams Health, patients can receive an evaluation and, if appropriate, a prescription for medical cannabis that is dispensed through Texas Original, the state’s licensed provider.

Stephen also talks about recent updates from Greg Abbott, which have expanded access to medical cannabis for Texans who may benefit from it.

You might be surprised to hear a urology practice discuss medical cannabis, but Stephen explains why many patients may qualify — including those living with chronic pain, cancer, and other qualifying conditions.

Hello, you healthy — or at least trying to be healthy — listeners of The Armor Men’s Health Show with Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee!

In these two segments, we’re joined by Dr. Thiru Lakshman of Texas Colon and Rectal Specialists to talk about something that isn’t exactly dinner-table conversation… but absolutely should be: colorectal cancer screening.

March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, and while it may not be the flashiest topic, it’s one of the most important. Screening can significantly reduce both the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer by detecting and removing precancerous growths early — before they become something much more serious.

Yes, we talk about colons. Yes, we keep it real. And yes, this information could genuinely save your life.

To learn more about Dr. Lakshman and the team at Texas Colon and Rectal Specialists, visit https://tcrscolondoctors.com/
or call (512) 418-1979.

Your future self (and your colon) will thank you.

This week on The Armor Men's Health Show podcast, Donna Lee sits down with a very special guest — board-certified urologist Dr. Lucas Jacomides — for an honest, informative, and incredibly helpful conversation.

They dive into a listener question many men quietly struggle with:
 “I had a prostatectomy in 2016 and have developed ED since then. I’ve tried Viagra and Cialis with no success. Is there help?”

Dr. Jacomides breaks down why medications don’t usually work after a prostatectomy and, more importantly, shares the real options available that can restore confidence, intimacy and quality of life.

Hello, brave and curious listeners… welcome back to The Armor Men’s Health Show! 🎙️

This week, co-hosts Donna Lee and Dustin Fontenot, PA-C, dive headfirst (carefully… very carefully) into one of the most taboo topics we’ve ever covered: urethral sounding.

Yes. That urethra. And yes… we mean inserting objects. 😳

Before you clutch your pearls (which we also discuss… more on that in a second), we break down the medical side first. Because sometimes placing instruments in the urethra is completely legitimate and necessary — think catheters and other procedures your urologist doesn’t exactly put on a billboard.

But then… we explore the other reason people do it. Pleasure.

Turns out, the urethra is packed with nerve endings. For some men, that area can be highly sensitive and, for certain adventurous souls, intensely stimulating. Donna and Dustin talk about why that is, what can go wrong (spoiler: a lot), and why so many men end up in the ER after DIY curiosity goes sideways.

And then there’s “pearling.”

If you know, you know.
 If you don’t… you’re about to.
 And honestly? We kind of hope you don’t. 😅

This episode is educational, eye-opening, slightly shocking, and absolutely fascinating. Whether you're here for the medical facts, the cultural curiosity, or just to hear Donna try to keep a straight face — we’ve got you covered.

Tune in… if you dare.

* Apologies for the audio issues at the end of this episode.

This week on The Armor Men’s Health Show, Donna Lee sits down with Dr. Preston Smith to talk about something that sounds futuristic but is very real: knee artery embolization.

If your knee has basically declared war on your happiness… this episode is for you.

Knee artery embolization is a minimally invasive procedure that helps calm down the inflammation by reducing blood flow to the angry, painful areas of the knee. Translation? Less pain. More movement. And in many cases, you might be able to delay a knee replacement for years — or possibly avoid it altogether.

And here’s the part that makes everyone lean in:

No meds.
No physical therapy.
No surgery.

Win. Win. Win.

Dr. Smith explains how this innovative treatment works and who might be a great candidate. He also shares more about Summit Interventional Radiology, part of our parent company, Urology Specialists of Austin, where he offers a range of cutting-edge procedures designed to improve quality of life without major surgery.

Your knees deserve better. 🎙️

Is it your bladder… or your prostate? 🤔 In this episode of The Armor Men's Health Show, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee break down the real story behind urinary symptoms that so many men quietly deal with—slow flow, hesitancy, urgency, frequent bathroom trips, incomplete emptying, and even incontinence.

They dive into the most common medications used to treat an enlarged prostate (BPH) and overactive bladder, including alpha-blockers, hormonal therapies, anticholinergics, and beta-agonists—explaining what they do, who they help, and the trade-offs no one warns you about. Think lightheadedness, low libido, erectile dysfunction, retrograde ejaculation, and even infertility. Yep, all on the table.

You’ll also learn why about 20% of men with urinary symptoms don’t actually have an enlarged prostate at all, but instead have an overactive bladder—and why those patients may do better with lifestyle changes, natural supplements, pelvic floor physical therapy, or targeted medications.

If you or someone you love is struggling with urinary symptoms, this episode will help you understand your options and ask better questions. Call Urology Specialists of Austin for a consultation or second opinion and take control of your health.

In this powerful Q&A episode of The Armor Men’s Health Show, Donna Lee sits down with board-certified urologist and Urology Specialists of Austin's very own Dr. Lucas Jacomides to tackle two deeply personal listener questions that many men are quietly struggling with.

First, a 65-year-old listener asks a question that cuts to the core of men’s health advocacy: Why do we wait for prostate cancer before taking action? With a long history of severe BPH, multiple TURP procedures, bladder incontinence, and a strong family history of cancer, he wants to know how to find a provider who treats the whole person—not just a diagnosis. Dr. Jacomides breaks down the medical reasoning, explores proactive options, and explains how patients can advocate for care that aligns with their quality-of-life goals.

Next, the conversation turns to Peyronie’s Disease—what it is, how it affects men physically and emotionally, and the real-world treatment options available today. Dr. Jacomides offers a clear, compassionate explanation of how he approaches this condition with patients and what expectations should look like moving forward.

This episode is packed with insight, education, and reassurance for men who want answers—and for partners who want to better understand the challenges men face. If you’re looking for honest conversations and expert guidance on men’s health, this is one you won’t want to miss. 🎧
