Where men are often made invisible, is in discussions around abortion. The focus is women and their experiences, and I believe that’s right. Women are the ones whose bodies and hormones are most greatly affected with this procedure, and often there are no support networks in place to support women during their pregnancy. However, that isn’t the reason men have been ignored in discussions around abortion. The reason men have been excluded from abortion conversations is due to the political nature of this unnecessary procedure, codified through court decisions that systematically disempower men.

Abortion is a complex and deeply personal trauma to the body that can have a significant emotional and physical impact on those who undergo the procedure. Regardless of the circumstances that led to the procedure, it's essential to recognise and address the potential emotional toll abortion can have on individuals.

Inflammation, the body's natural response to injury or illness, plays a crucial role in our overall wellbeing. However, when inflammation becomes chronic, it can significantly affect mental health and cognition.

Most women think female sexual arousal disorders (FASD), the inability to attain, or maintain until orgasm, sexual activity, is just the natural state of “men not knowing what they’re doing.” And though I do enjoy those jokes, there could be an underlying issue of sexual dysfunction if this is something experienced persistently, and causes distress and confusion.

Erectile dysfunction (ED), often referred to as impotence, is a condition that affects millions of men worldwide.

In this article, we'll explore the common physical and emotional causes of ED, traditional pharmaceutical treatments with their side effects, and natural alternatives to manage and potentially reverse this condition.
