Fixing The Secret Disease: Female Incontinence Can Alter Life Style and Health

Dr. Myron Murdock, Vibrance Medical Director

Incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine and is a common problem in women. It is unfortunately one of the "secret problems" that women do not talk about because it is embarrassing and many think that the problem cannot be solved. Fortunately, the vast majority of women with incontinence can be successfully treated and many, cured.

Is a Penile Fracture Truth or Myth?

Dr. Myron Murdock, Vibrance Medical Director

Most physicians, and I am sure most patients, have no idea that a penis can be fractured—broken. When the penis is erect, firm and rigid and when the spongy, soft tissue of the corpora cavernosum are filled with blood and surrounded by the rigid, sturdy capsule, a sharp blow to the penis can actually cause the rigid capsule of the corpora spongiosum (the mass of tissue surrounding the urethra) to crack and bleed into tissue of the penis.

Seniors: Sex, Health, and Good Years

Senior writer/editor (Reviewed by Dr. Myron Murdock, Vibrance Medical Director)

There's a report in the British Medical Journal on sex and aging and health. There were some genuine surprises, but the bottom line is that middle- and older-age men and women who perceive themselves to be in very good health are more likely to be sexually active. Researchers analyzed interview data from two nationally representative samples of some 6000 U.S. adults aged 25 through 85.

Sexual Addiction? Wrong Label? We Can Now Agree to Disagree

Dr. Aline Zoldbrod ("Dr. Z"), Special Vibrance Writer

Well, I'm sick of the Tiger Woods story too, but I'm not sick of talking about sexual addiction.

Hmmmm. Or, sexual compulsion. Or sexual hyperactivity disorder. Or sexual obsession. I know that I'm supposed to be cautious about the label I'm using, being a responsible psychologist, and sexologist, and a Ph.D., and a clear-thinking, rational being, but I swear, there is a terrible problem going on out here. Can we all just look at what's going on with sex and society these days?
