63. Meet “Proctor””- Pelvic Pain, Prostate Cancer, wild-type erections & suppositories!

Thursday Dec 02, 2021

Today, we talk to Proctor.

Proctor's story also started when he was 18-19 years old. Much like the same with Pierre, Proctor also experienced pain in his perineum... and in his testicles.

He also went to different doctors, was prescribed with pain medications, and still no explanation with how the pain is occurring. Then he had robotic radical prostatectomy after his Prostate Cancer was picked up by a diligent GP.

All of these brought Proctor to Dr. Jo and Melissa - and the rest is history. :)

This episode will not only share Proctor's journey, discuss 'wild type erections' but will also show you the importance of having a very diligent GP.

Enjoy listening!

62. “Pelvic Pain Pierre”: Persistent Pain in the Private Parts

Wednesday Nov 24, 2021

For today's episode, we talk with Pelvic Pain Pierre.

Pierre's story starts when he was 18 years old and he noticed a decrease in his urine flow.

Two years later he developed groin pain. This was the beginning of Pierre taking tons of different medications as health professionals struggled to find a diagnosis.

The pain became more consistent and affected Pierre's life...he noticed the pain would change depending on his emotional state and with activity. Thanks to big flat screen TV's, Pierre was still able to enjoy movies - at home! Because sitting for a long time in a cinema would be uncomfortable and can cause flare ups for Pierre.

Pierre is now 32 years old, married, and still experiences pain. But he's living his life and is NOW getting the help he needs, and can sit longer!

To know more about Pierre's story, his journey, what his diagnosis really is, and get an anatomy lesson thrown in click the PLAY button below.

59. Debunking Penis Size and Function with “Melissa and Dr Jo”

Wednesday Nov 10, 2021

The Penis Project podcast this week focuses on the question: what is normal for a male penis?

In recent months, both Jo and Melissa have had numerous patients attend their clinics, who have been very distressed by the size and appearance of their penis. In some instances, these men have had years of psychological distress over the false belief that their penis has been much smaller than average. In some cases, this has also prevented men from having relationships and even fathering children. The dire impact of this has been heartbreaking to observe so... breaking down stigmas and stereotypes is the aim of this episode.

Melissa and Dr Jo will have a frank discussion around all the common myths and misconceptions around what is normal in the male genitalia. This includes discussions around accurate measurement of penis length, function and size according to real data and scientific evidence. Conditions such as Erectile dysfunction, micro-penis, Koro , fatal retraction and buried penis are introduced as well as the impact of pornography on self-esteem.

The goal of today's episode (and of The Penis Project podcast ever since) is to reassure guys that every penis is unique and that size doesn’t necessarily matter!!!

Male Pelvic Fitness by Dr. Andrew Siegel

58. Dr “Ryan Stafford”- Pioneer in Men’s Health Research of Pelvic floor Muscle Function

Wednesday Nov 03, 2021

Dr Ryan Stafford (PhD) , Adjunct Research Fellow at University of Western Australia, University of Queensland

Doctor of Philosophy, The University of Queensland
Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, University of Saskatchewa, Canada

Dr Ryan Stafford is passionate research scientist, with a background in Exercise Physiology and collaborates with global leading researchers in men’s health. Specifically, Ryan pioneered real-time ultrasound (RTUS) imaging in the assessment of male pelvic floor function in men undergoing surgery for prostate cancer, and hence changed the way the physiotherapists teach patients how to perform PFM training correctly to minimise urinary incontinence.

Today, Ryan continues to lead research at the University of Queensland (UQ) and has recently joined forces with Dr Jo (Milios) at The University of Western Australia (UWA) investigating male patients undergoing radiation therapies for prostate cancer and also at male pelvic pain patients. A new focus is on erectile dysfunction and this includes males with any form of PFM dysfunction with doppler studies of penile blood flow being examined. Also sometimes these muscles can be tight, known as ‘hypertonicity’’ and other times they can be weak, known as ‘hypotonicity’’. So for some men strength training is not the best program , but relaxation or PFM ‘down-training’’ is the key.

Please join Dr Jo as she brings up the great, the humble Dr Ryan Stafford. From Canada to you!

Ps. In recent COVID times, research grants are tougher to succeed, with less $$$ available in the total health purse, so currently Dr JO & Ryan are doing this research in a voluntary fashion. Although he wouldn’t ask for it, philanthropic donations to Ryan can always be made by contacting him directly at r.stafford@uq.edu.au... PROST!

Grants

Targeted pelvic floor muscle training for urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy: A randomised controlled trial with embedded physiological studies

(2018–2021) NHMRC Project Grant (ongoing )

Dr Eve Tiong believes in going above and beyond for her patients. Through both personal experience and her work in oncology, she is passionate about delivering exceptional holistic care to patients throughout treatment and beyond.

Dr Eve Tiong is an experienced radiation oncologist at Icon Cancer Centre Midland and Icon Cancer Centre Rockingham. She completed her Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) at the University of New South Wales before establishing her radiation oncology career in Singapore at the National Cancer Centre and National University Hospital in 2009.

Returning to Australia, Dr Tiong continued her specialist radiation oncology training at Sydney’s Liverpool Hospital and The Canberra Hospital. She was awarded fellowship to the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (FRANZCR) in 2015. Dr Tiong undertook her radiation oncology fellowship (genitourinary and gastrointestinal malignancies, lymphoma and sarcoma) at the Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, Canada. She has published on review articles for sarcoma and prostate cancer, and on e-health strategies for breast cancer survivors.

Dr Tiong maintains an active interest in cancer education and regularly provides community and GP information sessions about lung cancer (in Chinese), prostate cancer and breast cancer. She is experienced in utilising advanced techniques such as stereotactic radiation therapy, MRI-simulation and image guided radiotherapy. Dr Tiong developed the stereotactic body radiation therapy technique to treat prostate and lung cancers at Icon Rockingham and Icon Midland.

Dr Tiong is also proficient in English and can converse in Mandarin and Malay. She looks forward to working with patients in their language. Her clinical experience covers a broad range of solid tumour malignancies, with special clinical interest in prostate cancer, bladder cancer, breast cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, lung cancer, lymphoma and palliative care.

We are very excited to hear what she has to say and hope you enjoy it.
