00:00 In the month of January, we are trying to see whether any New Year resolution can enhance

00:06 your sex life or can reverse any problems with sexual dysfunction.

00:10 On the second week, we're talking about alcohol consumptions.

00:20 In fact, there are many many studies to show that even 6 units of alcohol per day actually

00:27 will have some dampening effect on your sex life.

00:30 What sort of dampening effect?

00:32 You're thinking about problems such as erectile dysfunction, lower sexual desire and also

00:39 problem with ejaculatory defect or ejaculatory dysfunction.

00:44 In fact, the true mechanism of the sexual dysfunction is actually unknown.

00:49 However, we believe that it is probably due to neuropathy.

00:55 Safe amount of alcohol can actually cause neuropathy, which is a damage of the nerve

01:00 crucial for erection.

01:02 And that itself constitute about 70% of men who have alcohol problems and resulting in

01:10 erectile dysfunction.

01:12 The second problem it causes is problems with the testosterone.

01:19 We all know that testosterone is absolutely crucial in sexual desire.

01:23 However, for men who consume a lot of alcohol, for example, if you're dependent on alcohol

01:29 in one study, looking at 100 men consuming about 20 units of alcohol per day over a period

01:38 of a 8 year interval, you realize that their testosterone level is rock bottom.

01:45 As a result of that, they will also encounter problems with ejaculation disorder and lower

01:52 sexual desire.

01:54 So in conclusion, men who consume alcohol may have some problems, I mean what I'm talking

02:01 about excessive amount of alcohol may have some problems with sexual dysfunction.

02:06 However, when this alcohol consumption is increased to the higher level to the extent

02:12 of dependency, then it can be detrimental.

02:15 The good news is that abstinence of between 2 to 3 months is already demonstrating that

02:22 there is a reversal of sexual function.

02:25 So men who encounter problems and stop drinking for at least 2 to 3 months will have a positive

02:32 impact on all three parameters of erection, desire and ejaculatory disorder.

02:38 In keeping with the new theme of New Year resolution, we really would like to find out

02:44 how losing weight can help.

02:46 So is obesity really affecting your sex life?

02:50 You wanna find out?

02:52 Then stay tuned for next week's Putting Dr G on the Spot.
