According to trends in male reproductive health data, sperm quality and testosterone levels have declined over the last few decades, sounding alarm bells for Michael Eisenberg, MD, a professor of urology at Stanford Medicine. It's made him wonder: Should we be concerned about other differences in men's reproductive health? Surmising that there may be more to uncover, Eisenberg set out to determine if physical anatomy has changed.

In a study published Feb. 14 in The World Journal of Men's Health, Eisenberg and his colleagues compiled data from 75 studies, conducted between 1942 and 2021, that reported on the penile length of 55,761 men. The team found that the average erect penis length increased by 24% over 29 years, a trend they saw around the world.

Eisenberg said that the increase may be another indicator that environmental exposures -- such as environmental pollutants or increasing sedentary lifestyles -- are causing reproductive-related changes.

Eisenberg discussed the motivation for the study, the (potential) implications of the findings for men's health, and new opportunities to investigate the impact of external environmental factors on human health.

    They are pretty similar, but this one is much less involved than a real CNC. A lot less moving parts

    I've been really into this

    It's a musical retelling of The Odyssey

    Also if you want mixed drinks without alcohol, there's a handful of non-alcoholic 'spirits'. Ritual Zero and Free Spirit are the two brands I've tried and they are alright. They don't have a TON of options, but they have some gin and whiskey alternatives that are fun to play with.
  • Varine Varine:
    I got a couple bottles to make some mixy drinks around holidays when I mostly want to drink, they aren't exact replacements but they are surprisingly close.
  • Varine Varine:
    I ended up with some hop water things that I really like instead for when I want to feel like I'm participating
  • Varine Varine:
    I just got moved to unsupervised probation, so I can get away with drinking a bit now. I technically am not supposed to, but I don't think I get checked anymore. I really want to smoke weed but it scares me
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Happy Wednesday! I am not feeling it today, my teeth are bothering me, or the fragments that were left behind are coming up and it is extra painful today. Don't ever let them tell you that getting full dental implants is easy. They have to pull all your teeth to do those and apparently they are not very good at getting all the teeth out all the time.

    That is true with Dentures too. I am taking the day off and working from home. The big difference is though, I am not drinking anymore so I have a nice tea and coffee regimen set up :)
  • Varine Varine:
    I wish i had a 3D scanner
  • Varine Varine:
    That would make what I'm doing SO much easier
  • Varine Varine:
    I guess I could just take a picture of it and then use that as a reference. I have a circuit board with some weird holes I can't get measured right
  • Varine Varine:
    Oh I got a Klipper mod for my big printer! It comes with a bunch of parts and I don't totally understand what it does but apparently it's way better than Marlin, which is I think what it currently runs

  • Varine Varine:
    You're people in Florida safe? The only couple I know are safe but I think they evacuated.

  • The Helper The Helper:
