| 176: Hypertonic Pelvic Floor with Archie | 06 Aug 2024 | 00:36:15 | |
So, we have talked a lot about the pelvic floor on this podcast, but usually it is about strengthening it to maintain/ improve continence post prostate cancer treatment. But what happens if your pelvic floor is too tight? Well, you can have too much of a good thing. Today we talk to Archie, a 29 year old guy who has a tight pelvic floor. This caused him issues in the bedroom. When your pelvic floor is too tight it can be a contributing factor to sexual dysfunction in both men and women. For women it usually results in pain and in men erectile dysfunction can be an issue. Listen to this week’s episode to find out how this issue can be helped. ---------- Websites: https://melissahadleybarrett.com Men’s health only https://rshealth.com.au/ All genders http://www.menshealthphysiotherapy.com.au/

| 77. How Prostate Cancer Liberated Picasso to Explore Sexual Creativity | 24 Mar 2022 | 00:38:46 | |
(A refreshing look into Prostate Cancer Journey )
For today’s episode, we will be talking with Picasso. Picasso was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer at 59 years old. His history involves up and down PSA levels. One day, his new GP, after looking at his records, advised him to go and see a specialist. After an MRI and a biopsy, Picasso had to undergo assisted robotic prostatectomy – amidst the early stages of the pandemic.
After surgery, Picasso had great results when it came to his continence (he did not even need to wear pads) and sexual function.
So now, two years after the surgery and already 61, Picasso has learned and started to get to know his penis in a different level. According to him, after the surgery, the way he was learning about his sexuality has been liberating. Coming from a religious background, Picasso has this limited core belief around sex... all this changed afterward.
And IF you’re curious to know what were the steps Picasso took to have these great results, have a listen! Spoiler alert – he did early Physio, Pilates, Yoga, and mindfulness. Plus penis vitamins after the surgery. 😉
Enjoy listening! If you are interested in doing Yoga or Pilates, send us a message and we’ll try our best to refer you to one.

| 76. Meet Glen Poole - CEO of the Australian Men’s Health Forum (AMHF) | 08 Mar 2022 | 00:52:58 | |
In today’s podcast, we speak to Glenn Poole, CEO of the Australian Men’s Health Forum (AMHF), the peak body for men’s health in Australia.
With the aim of improving male health across the lifespan, AMHF explores the how and why of male attitudes to health and how this may impact their quality & quantity of life. Linking up with a diverse network of individuals and organisations that work together, AMHF provides a central point for improved outcomes and the sharing of knowledge and programs across Australia.
Glenn joins Melissa & Dr Jo as they tackle some of the tricky topics that can affect boys and men. This includes addressing the physical, social, spiritual, sexual, and relationship needs of males across the lifespan - from school to retirement and beyond. It is a little-known fact that men have a 4-5 year reduced lifespan vs females and are at higher risk for many diseases and poorer health in areas such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and suicide.
Research shows that the best way to improve men’s health is to tackle the underlying social factors like education, fatherhood, work-life, social connection and access to male-friendly services and Glenn discusses how he puts this into practice.
For more information about AMHF, you can gain an info kit from www.amhf.org.au. A yearly National Men’s Health awards event is the highlight of the AMHF calendar, so look out for it every June in Men’s Health Week.
A big thanks to Glenn and his team for all their incredible support of men’s health.

| 74. Meet Peri-pain Pete. Let’s talk about pain in the perineum. | 23 Feb 2022 | 00:36:04 | |
Today, we speak with Peri-pain Pete. Pete is a 72-year old retired geologist who experienced pain in his perineum following prostate removal. Being a retiree who loves to cycle and is quite active sports wise, the peri-pain did affect his life. When did the pain start? According to Pete, it was when his catheter came out that he noticed the pain. The pain is exacerbated by standing but is relieved when sitting or lying down. After much research, Pete didn't find any explanation as to the cause. So... this episode will help us navigate through 'Peri-pain' and see what Pete did to resolve the issue. Then, Dr Jo will discuss a few possible causes of the pain plus a simple anatomy lesson. Melissa will also add information about medications and assessments. And lastly, this might be the first episode where Dr Jo teaches how to ‘subtlety’ do nuts-to-guts. It's an interesting episode again this week! We hope the golden nut-gets from today's episode will help those experiencing the same pain as Pete had.

| 71. Wonky Willys - more on Peyronies with Dr Jo (Causes, treatments, and resources) | 01 Feb 2022 | 00:28:17 | |
Did you know that 1 in 6 men develop Peyronies after Radical prostatectomy?
So for today’s episode, we will talk about it - Peyronies disease... but instead of a patient’s, it will be FROM a physiotherapist’s point of view. And for this one, we will be talking to our resident physio, Dr. Jo.
Dr. Jo will discuss the causes, the old (fad) treatments, the newest discoveries (focus shockwave plus Dr Jo’s research), theories why this happens (‘Neuropraxia’ and trauma), herbal supplements that MAY help, and a few more useful information you can use and/or share in case you know a friend/loved one that has it.
You’ll also get to learn about Neoman (your next fave channel) and online resources that help with ‘traction’.
The takeaway that we wish everyone applies; if you notice a change of shape in your penis or in your partner’s, don't be afraid. Please show it to your health professional. The sooner we get to it, the better. Please get help.
Don’t forget to also check the full show notes to see the full list of resources mentioned in this episode.
Enjoy listening! And if you can spare a minute or two to share and comment so we get to help more willy wonkies. The lesser wonkies, the better. 😉

He also talks about Oligospermia, which is a term for low sperm count and how it's different from Azoospermia. Dr Barrett also answers the question of whether procedures relating to the scrotum/testes (ie vasectomy) can cause erectile dysfunction or not, and whether varicoceles are the possible reason for pain during sex/orgasm (for those experiencing it). He also brushes upon testicle pains, diagnosis, and its possible treatments (ie botox). Yes, you heard it right, botox can also be injected to the bladder (has been done since the 80's) for overactive bladders! Further, Dr Barrett and Melissa discuss vasectomies (and even reversals), what's true and what’s not. Spoiler alert - there shouldn't be a crippling pain. A few more topics discussed are penile implants and injections. This is a fully-loaded episode with tons of golden nuggets that not only talk about the penis but also the bells around! Have a listen as we believe you will enjoy and learn a lot about these topics!

| 63. Meet “Proctor””- Pelvic Pain, Prostate Cancer, wild-type erections & suppositories! | 02 Dec 2021 | 00:43:09 | |
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 | 23 Nov 2021 | 00:52:54 | |
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!

| 59. Debunking Penis Size and Function with “Melissa and Dr Jo” | 10 Nov 2021 | 00:51:56 | |
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!!!

| 58. Dr “Ryan Stafford”- Pioneer in Men’s Health Research of Pelvic floor Muscle Function | 02 Nov 2021 | 01:01:56 | |
Dr Ryan Stafford (PhD) , Adjunct Research Fellow at University of Western Australia, University of Queensland
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 (2018–2021) NHMRC Project Grant (ongoing ) (2016–2020) Physiotherapy Research Fellowships (completed)

| 55. “Patrick Lumbroso Trilogy”: Part 2 Sex after Prostate Cancer: A man with a plan is unstoppable | 12 Oct 2021 | 00:39:10 | |
SEX after Prostate Cancer is CHALLENGING!
In this episode, we reacquaint you with Men’s Health Psychologist Patrick Lumbroso (RIP) who we first introduced in Episode 4, in our first ‘’pop up’’ edition. and then again in Episode 50. Today’s post-humous chat focuses on how men feel when it comes to all things penile rehabilitation and when things don’t work when trying to get it up! From injections to foreplay and penile implant surgery- Patrick holds NOTHING back!! Patrick was a man on a mission to educate the world and his phrase Á MAN WITH A PLAN IS UNSTOPPABLE” also applies to himself. Please remember that the information provided needs contexct – it was recorded in April 2017 and so some things have changed including outcomes for post-surgical erectile dysfunction. (Listen to Urologist Dr David Dangerfield, Episode 46 for restoring sexual function with Nerve Grafting)!
Patrick, who founded ‘’ManFocus Clinic’’ in Sydney Australia was passionate about providing quality rehabilitation and counseling service for men and their partners, especially those undergoing treatment for prostate cancer. Knowing the potential side effects of surgery – including erectile and urinary dysfunction - could greatly impact a man’s self-esteem, Patrick was earnest in his goals to address the big gaps seen in male mental health. Patrick’s primary focus was in education and support for men experiencing any form of sexual dysfunction, and although he did not complete his PHD due to his premature passing, his work is founding and explores new frontiers in men’s health.
In 2017 Dr Jo interviewed Patrick over 3 hours and episode 55 is the secind of 3 episodes bringing Patrick’s experience and desire to assist others to be better prepared and more proactive in their recovery. Knowing his death from a brain tumour was imminent, Patrick did not hold back. Brace yourself for this raw account…..
Patrick’s wife Donna and children, Joel and Rebecca have agreed to share this body of work, that remains as relevant today as when it was recorded. We thank them for their generosity.

For today's episode, we talk with Paul.
We will start the episode from a poem written by Paul... and then the elaboration of how this poem came to be.
From losing his father, to knowing he has cancer, Paul was not able to have time to really process everything happening around him - until he needed anxiety meds. And eventually, started to think of taking his own life.
And then... healing began.

| 51. Our first anniversary! Look back with “’Melissa & Dr Jo” | 15 Sep 2021 | 00:35:38 | |
Woot, woot! Our 51st episode is also our anniversary episode. We've been together for 50 episodes, 51 weeks, and 365 days. Thank you for joining and growing with us! This week we have had a trip down memory lane in more ways than one, the first 2 mins has terrible sound…. If you have been listening since the beginning you will remember the days when the sound was terrible and you had to keep changing the volume to hear! So my apologies, not sure what happened but the podcast Gremlin has attacked. Rest assured it is for 2 min only then the sound gets better. That’s what happens when a nurse is responsible for the tech!!
For this episode, we look back on how we improved(mostly) from our first day of recording mishaps, tech challenges to becoming pro (we hope we are now!) podcasters to be able to provide you with world class information. We will discuss what episodes moved us and inspired us to go further. And a little bit of the stories peppered in
PLUS a little gift from us for you to enjoy. ;)
Have a listen now through the button below and again, our sincerest thanks to all of you who have been with us, and will be with us still, through the journey of sharing information and advocating for ALL THINGS PENIS and more.

| 50. “Patrick Lumbroso Trilogy“: Part 1 Prostate Cancer Awareness Month | 07 Sep 2021 | 00:50:16 | |
September is the international month of Prostate Cancer Awareness and in this episode, we reacquaint you with Men’s Health Psychologist Patrick Lumbroso (RIP) who we first introduced in Episode 4, in our first ‘’pop up’’ edition. Patrick, who founded ‘’ManFocus Clinic’’ in Sydney Australia was passionate about providing a quality rehabilitation and counselling service for men and their partners, especially those undergoing treatment for Prostate Cancer. Knowing the potential side effects of surgery – including erectile and urinary dysfunction - could greatly impact on a man’s self-esteem, Patrick was earnest in his goals to address the big gaps seen in male mental health. Patrick’s primary focus was in education and support for men experiencing any form of sexual dysfunction, and although he did not complete his PHD due to his premature passing, his work is founding and explores new frontiers in men’s health. In 2017, Dr Jo interviewed Patrick over 3 hours and episode 50 is the first of 3 episodes bringing Patrick’s experience and desire to assist others to be better prepared and more proactive in their recovery. Knowing his death from a brain tumour was imminent, Patrick did not hold back. Brace yourself for this raw account….. Patrick’s wife Donna and children, Joel and Rebecca, have agreed to share this body of work, that remains as relevant today as when it was recorded. We thank them for their generosity. Furthermore, here are the links to Patrick Lumbroso's works:

| 49. In depth about Peyronie’s disease with “’Dr Shane LaBianca’’ | 31 Aug 2021 | 00:33:20 | |
For today’s episode, we will talk about Peyronies Disease in more detail with the Dick Doc, Dr. Shane La Bianca.
Peyronies disease is an abnormal scarring process within the penis. Though easily curable when diagnosed early, most of the time, it is overlooked or not discussed even with GPs or with the special people in our lives that the after effects worsen.
If you would like to know what are the possible causes of Peyronies, the different available treatments to help with this disease, the issue on lengthening, and all interesting information including how losing weight can help with penile ‘length’, click the play button below! Remember, any changes in your penis (or in your kids’), it is best to see the specialist ASAP.

| 48. “Pablo”- Stickability in Prostate Cancer. Encouragement for all men | 24 Aug 2021 | 00:28:26 | |
For today’s episode, we talk to Pablo. Pablo is what we can describe as someone who has an amazing stickability – being able to stick to the best practices and keeping tabs of anything he does to know what works or not. At first, Pablo didn’t have it all good – no, not all. He suffered from leakage during play. Not just a minor leakage issue but a 200-250ml leakage. What did he do to change this and enjoy minimal-to-no leakage?

| 47. Stand UP - Living with Long Covid & 200 possible side effects with Physiotherapist ‘’Darren Brown’’ | 17 Aug 2021 | 00:58:36 | |
COVID 19 has finally descended upon Australia at a time when we least expected it. After 18 months of living a relatively normal life – despite occasional lock downs and mask- wearing becoming common place- as of August 2021, life is now very different. We are currently witnessing the full impact of the Delta strain pandemic sweeping our country, and like bushfire, we are succumbing to infection levels not seen before. But we are way behind in our preparation, being one of the least vaccinated countries in the world…. And we are starting to pay!! In this episode, we interview UK Physiotherapist Darren Brown who became an early COVID statistic himself. He describes the chaos, devastation and terrible losses as case numbers grew quickly, and of his own debilitating illness as a ‘’conscientious’’ front-line worker. For Darren, a 3-day illness led to an 18-month rollercoaster of illness – including more than 20 different symptoms, from being bedridden and requiring a walking stick as a young, healthy male to a regime of STOP! REST! PACE! towards a slow recovery...from a condition now known as ‘’LONG COVID’’ Not much is known about the long-term side effects of life beyond acute COVID infection- the 2-3 weeks of respiratory illness- but Darren shares all that he knows about LONG COVID, from his own experiences of 1000s of others he has since met. You will be shocked to learn the depth & breadth of the corona virus, it’s harrowing persistence and devastating side effects – potentially affecting every organ including the brain, heart, lungs, limbs and even the penis!! Darren’s background working in HIV & Immunology as a Physiotherapist, his academic pursuits as a clinical research and his role in advocacy for World Physiotherapy (WCPT), make this discussion riveting – his knowledge base is second to none. A number of resources are listed below, including Darren’s own website and podcast series “Long COVID Physio.” If you’re keen to keep yourself, your community and your penis healthy (if you have/ know one), then PLEASE LISTEN!

| 45. Debunking the Mysteries of Continence with “Dr Jo”: Pads, Penile Clamps…pee and pooping problems! | 03 Aug 2021 | 00:38:14 | |
Following on from last week’s podcast with Melissa about debunking the mysteries of Erectile Dysfunction, Dr. Jo will be debunking similar mysteries about continence issues that affect men! This includes both peeing and pooping problems, the use of continence pads and how to wean off them, and how to incorporate penile clamps for improved management of urinary leakage. Garnered from working with 1000’s of men in the same predicament clinically, Dr. Jo has protocols that will help any man gradually reduce continence pad use – including size, number, and the need for pads PLUS, a penile clamp protocol that will immediately improve the quality of life for heavy urinary leakage. Placed on the penis as a simple clamping device, the urinary flow stops, and the bladder re-trains, enabling a man to move, walk, exercise, and socialize without leakage! For some this has been a life-saver and for most men, restores dignity and confidence during a time of distress. In addition, this episode also includes information about pelvic floor muscle training, bladder irritants including caffeine and alcohol, and how they affect continence and confidence! Updates on bowel continence management and the Bins 4 Blokes campaign are also addressed in this jam-packed episode of tips from the physiotherapy clinic and Dr. Jo! ---------- Websites: https://melissahadleybarrett.com Men’s health only https://rshealth.com.au/ All genders http://www.menshealthphysiotherapy.com.au/

| 38. Meet ‘’PROST! Ross’’. Exercise 4 Prostate Cancer and his member(s) | 15 Jun 2021 | 00:36:46 | |
Episode 38 will be all about Prost Ross and his Member(s). Ross had his Open Prostatectomy in 2013. It has already been 8 years since then. We invited Ross to share with us his story on how and why he decided to continue to become a part of PROST and other support groups even though it has already been quite long after his diagnosis. For Ross, it was simple - it has become a part of his life.
Here’s what Ross can share to everyone who are still not sure whether to join a support group or not:
“Going into a support can ameliorate those feelings and fears; camaraderie in support groups is fabulous.”
Have a listen to Ross and his amazing journey from a patient to an advocate, together with his member(s). ;) IF you're residing in Australia: Health line: 1800220099 - To talk to a Prostate Cancer specialist nurse ----- Thanks for listening.

| 163: Is that a gun in your pocket…Frisk search gone wrong | 20 Feb 2024 | 00:17:46 | |
If you are a regular listener to The Penis Project then you will probably remember Rod Popcorn from episode 53. If you haven’t listened back that far, then I recommend you go back as this is a funny, honest account of a prostate cancer recovery. Rod will be 4 years post op this April and he joins us today to share a hilarious story about a recent experience that involved a needle, an erection, a motorbike and airport security. This episode is short but it will have you chuckling to yourself for days. ---------- Websites: https://melissahadleybarrett.com Men’s health only https://rshealth.com.au/ All genders http://www.menshealthphysiotherapy.com.au/

| 37. Cyberknife® Precise Robotic Radiosurgery for Prostate Cancer with “Peter Podias” | 08 Jun 2021 | 00:46:41 | |
Episode 37 will be about Cyberknife.
To start, Cyberknife® is defined as per below:
CyberKnife® System uses state-of-the-art robotic technology combined with real-time image guidance to deliver precisely-targeted radiation to cancerous and non-cancerous lesions almost anywhere in the body. Real-time tumour tracking enables the delivery of high doses of radiation with sub-millimetre accuracy, sparing surrounding healthy tissue and organs without the need for invasive immobilisation devices.
To know more about this technology, we have invited Peter Podias - the Director of Operations of 5D Clinics, the only private Cyberknife® clinic in Australia.
Peter will discuss how Cyberknife® works, what it does, what diseases it can help, the process, how much it costs, what are its short term and long term effects, and a lot more questions you might also want to know the answers to.
If you’re the one who's been looking for a few different options, this episode is surely for you.
This is also for you if you’re a sci-fi movie fan because as Melissa says, Cyberknife® is like something that came out from the movies.
It’s actually for everyone too who would love to know how much Science has evolved in terms of radiation therapy.
Have a listen at the link below. And don’t forget to share this episode with anyone who you feel can benefit from it. Thank you. ;)
Just for a bit of fun, see if you can say: "Peter Podias who is on the phenomenal Penis Project Podcast!” 3 times ------ Thanks for listening.

| 36. Meet ‘’David Sandoe’’ - Talking Penile Prosthesis x2 & PCFA Support Groups | 01 Jun 2021 | 00:45:02 | |
Episode 36 is the story of a man who has had not one but two penile prostheses! Meet David. In one of our recent episodes, Episode 29, we spoke to Dr. Sofield about Penile Prosthesis. Perhaps, you’ve been one of those curious bees who would like to know the experience - pros and cons - of having a penile prosthesis. And this is it! Listen to David who willingly shared his experience and proudly declared that he is on his 2nd prosthesis (his first one had worn out - he likes to say)! All your questions about this procedure - from costs to how you use it - will be answered in this episode. And one good thing to note - it all depends on the individual. ;) Also, heed how David really advocates for early testing - as this is a paramount step for prostate cancer diagnosis.
Enjoy! ----- ----------------------------
