Emma is joined by Dr Joshua Roland, a board-certified sleep medicine physician to talk about erectile dysfunction and sleep apnea. Together they discuss:
* the shame and stigma surrounding erectile dysfunction;
* the possible relationship between untreated sleep apnea and erectile dysfunction;
* men being reluctant to see the doctor and what can be done about it;
* reduced libido/sex drive and hormonal impacts of untreated sleep apnea;
* sleep testing, including home testing, and sleep data from wearables;
* Dr Roland's interest in idiopathic hypersomnia and the link between sleep disorders and Alzheimer's.
