On the sneak tip: the male pelvis revealed
|
This story is based on five central characters. Four of them are men with sexual dysfunction. These fictional characters are forced to navigate their lives around their different pelvic and sexual problems. The fifth character is a female urologist, who harnesses her specialty to treat men with erectile dysfunction.
The book then turns towards the science and research behind erectile dysfunction, prostate cancer and pelvic pain (the most elusive of all things, for men who have it). This nonfiction portion explores what treatments are available for men with such conditions. The takeaway is a comprehensive look at what happens in the male pelvis, from the viewpoint of a specialist who treats men. It encompasses how men view their own masculinity; and how society is often unforgiving of men in today’s world. This book seeks to uncover how men can deal with their pelvic problems. And how all genders can relate to their struggles. |

Becca genuinely taps into an amazingly sensitive topic that affects more than 30 million men. Erectile dysfunction is a taboo subject that men tend to shy away from discussing or reaching out for help. Becca depicts an intimate journey of each of her characters in a manner that anyone can empathize with. This book is a fantastic read which I hope will allow men to come out from hiding in knowing they are not alone.
