In this episode Dr. Morgentaler and Dr. Brandon talk about PSA rises during testosterone therapy and when to investigate them, as well as how to handle the desire to cheat by examining consequences, improving communication, and strengthening the primary relationship. 00:00 PSA & Testosterone Therapy: Why PSA Rises and What It Means They explain how testosterone therapy can naturally raise PSA levels, why that doesn't automatically mean cancer, and how understanding the "saturation point" brings context and calm. 02:56 When PSA Crosses the Line: MRI, Biopsy, and Monitoring a PSA of 7 A clear, steady walkthrough of when a higher PSA needs further testing, what an MRI or biopsy involves, and why trends over time matter more than one scary number. 08:34 Desire to Cheat: Understanding the Urge and Playing the Consequences Forward They normalize attraction to others while encouraging listeners to slow down, consider the emotional fallout, and think through what acting on the impulse would really cost. 13:06 Ruin the Fantasy: When Cheating Thoughts Signal Relationship Trouble An honest look at how affair fantasies can mask deeper dissatisfaction, and how imagining the real-life aftermath can snap you out of the illusion. 16:25 Talking It Out: Honest Conversations to Reignite Desire (Without Blowing It Up) They offer gentle language for starting tough conversations about distance and desire so couples can work as a team instead of turning on each other. 19:15 Monogamy vs. Our Animal Brains: Primate Sex, Nuance, and Final Takeaways A thoughtful reflection on human biology, temptation, and commitment—reminding us that while urges are natural, relationships thrive on intention and care.
