After spending years being insecure about his thinning hair, Mark Millich turned to the internet to help reverse his baldness. The former US Army sergeant, 26, completed a 14-question intake on the telehealth company Hims.com and received a bottle of anti-balding pills at his home. Within six months of taking finasteride, he began experiencing dizziness, fatigue, cold sweats, slurring his words - which he described as feeling 'lobotomized'. Worst of all his testicles shrank and changed shape.

the website doctor Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor.
(03:09):
And we'll get to your calls a little bit later
in this hour, I promise, all right, We begin with
the issue of manhood being destroyed by a popular hair
growth product. After spending years being insecure about his thinning
hair mark, Milich turned to the Internet to help reverse
(03:31):
his baldness. The former US Army sergeant twenty six years
of age, completed a fourteen question intake on the telehealth
company Hymns. You see these guys advertising on television all
the time hymns dot com, and he received a bottle
(03:52):
of anti balding pills at his home from HIMS with
that he ordered online. Within six months of taking the
drug Finessterde, he began experience dizziness, fatigue, cold sweats, slurring
of his words, which he described as feeling lobottomized. Worst
(04:14):
of all, his testicles shrank and changed shapes. Oh my gosh,
if that is disclosed to men up front, I'm doubting
a whole lot of men are going to be placing
that order, hitting that order button right at the end
of their experience online. That's right out of completely scary.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
So in.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Fear of his mental state, this US Army former US
Army Sergeant Mark Millich in fear of his mental state
as a result taking this drug that was supposed to
grow hair on his head, he stopped taking theteride that
he got at hymns dot com, but soon after even
(05:06):
worse side effects kicked in. His libido plunged, and his
genitals shrank and changed shapes as a result of taking
the hair growth product. As a former soldier continues to
battle his situation, he claims that the telehealth company never
(05:30):
shared information about the dangerous side effects of the drug
and falsely advertised the medication well that may be true.
I mean, these companies that are advertising on television, they
tell you know, and sometimes they do it really fast
and very slick and very quick, trying to bamboozle you
into buying these risky drugs. I mean, if they had
(05:53):
to tell you the side effects of this drug called finesteride,
it would take up all a lot of time. They
wouldn't be able to get that thirty or sixty second
commercial in, and people wouldn't buy the products. So they
gloss over it and some of them don't even disclose
it to you. But this finesteride, the generic name is Propecia.
(06:14):
Maybe you know somebody who's struggling with hair loss or
thinning hair and they're getting stressed out over that, you
might let them know about his experience. Mark Millich, this
twenty six year old US Army sergeant, how he took
it under the offmuses that it would solve his balding
(06:35):
situation that he was becoming self conscious about. And so
he took it without having any potential side effects disclosed
to him by HIMS, the company hims dot com, and
he started to his health started to just circle the drain.
Finesteride is the generic name of Provicia. It's recommended by
(06:57):
doctors in cases of male baldness to help improve hair
growth and hair count over time. Now, in the male body,
in our bodies, we males, we have an enzyme called
five a reductase. It's responsible for converting testosterone into a
hormone called DHT dihydro testosterone that as DHD, causes hair
(07:21):
to become shorter and thinner. It's the bane of hair
loss and it relates to male and females even and
eventually stopping the growing process of the affected area. This
DHD does body can't handle, it can't break it down
like it used to, and the finesteride, the drug Propecia,
(07:43):
reduces the amount of DHD produced in the body by
blocking the production of this enzyme that males produce. We
all produce it. But the DHT is also crucial in
sexual arousal, rectile function, and genitalch and its reduction can
negatively impact these functions. In some cases, including mister Militch's case,
(08:09):
the side effects persist even after stopping Propecia or finesteride.
This is known as post finesteride syndrome. Oh they got
another name for another syndrome, and of course the only
reason for that is so that doctors can get paid
that way. There's a code, it's a chain and can
(08:31):
include when you take this Propecia or finesterride, long term
sexual dysfunction, depression, and even cognitive issues. As of twenty
twenty four, over almost three million Americans are taking this
hair loss Propecia drug, an increase of nearly two hundred
percent over the last seven years, according to a report
(08:54):
by Epic Research. And of course what drives that advertising
Hymn's advertising day in day out, promising these balding males
that all they have to do is just take this
little pill or rub the stuff in their head and
they'll have a full head of hair, not realizing the
horrendous side effects that they may experience as part of
(09:17):
taking the drug Propecia. Between one and one hundred and
one in ten men suffer at least one of its
major side effects. Doctor Justin Howeman, a urologist at Cedar
Sina and Medical Center in Los Angeles, told The Wall
Street Journal that an increasing number of young men have
(09:37):
been left plagued his words, plagued by sexual side effects
from Propecia. Also known as finessterode. The side effects are very,
very common, the doctor says these days due to accessibility
of the drug from companies such as Hymn's hi ms
(10:00):
dot com. Also, the specialist worn this is not something
young men should take. According to hymns dot com, the
twenty two dollars bottle of oral once a day Finesteride
or Perpisia tablets can help reverse hair loss, but a
hymns dot com spokesperson confirmed to The Wall Street Journal
that customers go through a comprehensive intake that is reviewed
(10:23):
by a licensed provider who makes a clinical determination about
the patient's eligibility for the medication. It comes about a
month after Hymns and Hers has been slammed for its
Super Bowl commercial. You may may remember this that ammonished
admonished Americans for being obese and shamed the healthcare industry,
(10:46):
then promised weight loss drugs at a sixty second commercial.
How bold is that? So if you're losing your hair,
I would not use finesteride or propisia. I'm doctor Bob Martin, this.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Is my son, Take Back My Life, sne.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
My Pablos. You're tuned into the doctor Bob Martin Show,
and for that I so appreciate you. Thank you all.
(11:30):
Right now, I have neglected to mention that we have
a health phole question going on my website right now,
and it's really related to the first hour of the program,
wherein I talked about how a medical test given to
millions of Americans may be causing an explosion in tumors.
(11:54):
And that medical test is given. It's a diagnostic test,
it's an important test, it can be life saving, but
it's often given unnecessarily, either for profitability or cya or
who knows, a lot of doctors just say, okay, so
let's get a scan. I'll authorize that you get a
(12:14):
CT scan because we can't find or can't determine your problem,
so you need it. And then people go and get
it without realizing that they've had the equivalent of a
madominal CT scan, the equivalent of taking over one hundred
chest X rays, and now people are screaming about the
fact that there's a lot of tumors associated with the
(12:35):
test itself, worse than maybe the disease they're looking for.
So there's a health poll question on my website at
doctor Bob dot com. Spelling out the word doctor. Do
oct o r Bob dot com asking you do you
think CT or computed tomography is what that stands for?
(12:56):
Do you think CT scans are over you used in
your opinion? Yes or no? Vote on that over on
my website at doctor Bob dot com, spelling out the
word doctor, doctor Bob dot com. All right, very very soon,
I'm going to go to questions on the Doctor Bob
Martin show call or hotline phone where I just wanted
(13:17):
to mention, you know that the the case that I
spoke about earlier, Mark Millich, the former US Army sergeant
twenty six years of age, a total cluster, you know what,
as a result of taking the hair growth product Propecia
that he got on the website hymns dot com. That's
not the only one. I was looking at another one
(13:39):
during the break there, Kyle, another person taking this drug
on you know, founded on online sales prescribing it for
men with hair loss and thinning hair down playing always
the potential adverse side effects of the drug. I didn't
even tell you that one of the side effects of
(14:01):
this drug, Finestride, also known as Propecia for hair loss
includes suicidal thoughts and impotence. Yet some big brand companies
will send the pills in the in the postal service
through the postal service without seeing or even chatting with
the customer. It happens. It's the wild wild West as
(14:24):
it relates to dispensing this drug for hair loss, because
a lot of these men are absolutely desperate to stop
their hair loss. They think it's the end of the
world because their hair is thinning out. They're starting to
see their scalp and they'll do anything anything, And if
it's easy as swallowing a pill they could give a
you know what that their side effects, they'll take their
chances as long as they can get a full head
(14:45):
of hair and get back to feeling good about themselves.
But I'm telling you this drug, finesteride and Propecia, is
disastrous and it's not a good thing to do, and
I do not recommend it.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
All.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Right now, we're going to turn our attention to the
Doctor Bob Martin Show Caller hotline phone number where I
take questions from our listenership, and you can also access
this number if you have a question about yourself or
you have a health related comment. I'm available to address
that at my expense. It's free ninety nine. Will that
(15:21):
work for you? All you need to do is call
this number and tell doctor Bob where it hurts, no
matter what it is you're having trouble with health wise
one eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two
eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. And
you can call any time of the night or day
because you'll hear me answer the phone. I'll ask you
(15:42):
to state your first name, only the city and state
you're living in, and then your question or your health comment.
It's that simple. One eight hundred six zero six eight
eight two to two. Here we go. First stop, we
say hello to Jerry calling in from Spokane, Washington.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
Hi, this is Jerry from spoke Can Washington. I'm scheduled
to have cataract surgery this summer, and at eighty nine
years old, I'm wondering if CANC can help me now
or if I waited too late. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
All right, Jerry, thank you for your phone call. He's
talking about can see I drops the only known clinically
tested peer review published in medical journals. I drop that
cannot only prevent cataracts from happening, but can reverse cataracts
at a certain stage. So, Jerry, the answer is, it's
never too late. And think about it, Jerry, because there's
(16:38):
no guarantee that the cataract surgery won't cause you to
go completely blind. I've seen it. In fact, I have
a good friend who's a pharmacist who had cataract surgery
and they damaged his retina. He's blind now in that eye.
I mean he could see something out of the eye.
It was cloudy in that eye, but now it's lights
(17:00):
out black because of the surgeon. Now that doesn't happen
very often, but it can happen. So think about that.
I mean, how hard would it be for you over
the next maybe three to six months, try the can
see eye drops with the nsetyl carna scene in and
if your vision improves and you're able to waylay or
delay or stop that surgery from happening, wouldn't that be
(17:23):
fantastic and not take the risk of having your eye
cut on a traumatized eye already that is struggling with
cataract at cloudy lens, having more more trauma induced to
it putting an artificial lens in there. So yes, it's
never too late, never too late to try. Can see
(17:43):
eye drops by Wise Choice Medicine and in case for
people who are hearing about this for the very first time,
you can find out more about this over at wise
Choice Medicine dot com. Wise Choice Medicine dot com can
see I drops, c an see I drops, or you
can call them toll free eight hundred eight six one
(18:04):
four nine three six eight hundred eight six one four
nine three six. All right, appreciate your phone call, Jerry.
Next up, we say hello to Becky and Ralla, Missouri.
Speaker 6 (18:16):
My name is Becky. I'm in Ralla, Missouri. My question
is I'm starting to have some problems walking. It seems
like it's mostly in my knees a little bit in
my back. You have what would be causing that and
(18:38):
what might help to alleviate the problem? Thank you?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
All right, Becky, Actually, thank you for your call. It
could be related. Your back problem and your knee problems
could be related, could be structural problems, and that's where
I would begin trouble with knees and your back first
and foremost, I would visit your chiropractic physician for a
(19:04):
structural or biomechanical checkup, because if there's misalignment of your
pelvic structure or your lower back. There's where the nerves
feed to your knees, so the back problem can refer
to your knees. It may not be a knee problem
at all. It may be coming from your back or
if there are structural malalignment problems with your knee, there's
(19:29):
a disk in the knee that can bulge out medially
towards the middle or latterly outside, and that bulging disc
can throw the knee balance out of balance, and that
can then up above throw the pelvis and lower back
out of balance and create that issue. So it needs
to be checked out biomechanically first. Many of these things
(19:51):
are missed in a conventional medical setting, but doctors of
chiropractic can spot and they can also determine whether it's
osteoarthritis or some type of inflammatory process in your spine
or your lower body. So I would do that first,
(20:11):
And if you want to use something for the inflammation
and the pain that you're having, start taking something called
cuamed see you are a med CUREMED and something called
vect Omega, which is basically omega three fish oil, which
is anti inflammatory. Both of these supplements are anti inflammatory
(20:33):
without destroying your stomach like aspirin and ibuprofen, and without
destroying your kidneys, without destroying your liver as in the
case of acetamtaphin or a leave or motorn or any
of these things. All those drugs have destructive effects not
only on the cartilage that's trying to rebuild, but also
other parts of your body. So curemed by Terry Natural
vitamins and vect omega. All right, Becky, thank you for
(20:57):
your phone call. I'm doctor Bob Martin for the right excuse?
Are you waiting for sign and choose?
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Why are you waiting?
Speaker 4 (21:06):
It's the time is.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Five, I'm coming on life.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Fine, type in phone.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Mon are you in phone?
Speaker 7 (21:30):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Happy and very healthy? Welcome or welcome back in that
one's sound to this hour of the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
We are smack dab in the middle of an conversation
taking your phone calls on the topic of health via
the Doctor Bob Martin Show Caller Hotline phone number. Now
you're hearing people call in. You can do the very
(21:52):
same thing in the convenience and privacy of your home
or business anytime you like. Call this number. With your
health question. You'll hear me answer the phone. I'll ask
you to state your first name, city only, state only,
and your question or comment. It's that simple, that number.
Eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. Now
(22:16):
turn your radio down before you make that call. If
you're calling during the show. I don't want that. My
voice blaring in the background is very distracting to the listener.
Eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two Nationwide
one eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two.
We'll get back to phone calls and health related questions momentarily,
(22:38):
but I want to tell you about an amazing breakthrough.
You know, we keep learning with all this sophistication we
have in the area of analysis of food elements and
ingredients in plant material. And some of these plants have
been used as medicines for hundreds or thousands of years.
(23:00):
We don't know why they work. And finally we're learning
why they work. We're learning about them and how to
tease them out from the plant itself to find out
what the secret sauce is, if you will, in that plant,
that makes that plant so medicinal, so healthy for human health.
One of those ingredients it's kind of a technical and
(23:20):
ingredient to try to remember. It's called palmitoi lethanolamine. But
you don't have to worry about that one. What you
have to remember is for short. That word for short
is pea. It's a special nutrient. Boy is it ever,
And it's found in very minute, minuscule quantities in egg
(23:44):
yolks and other foods. You'd have to eat a pile
of eggs and other foods to get enough to be therapeutic.
But they finally figured out a way to isolate this
pea substance and put it into a nutritional supplement. Scientific
research shows that pea can address muscle pain and recovery
(24:04):
arthritis symptoms, improve your mobility or range of motion, and
even help your cognitive health and a multitude of other
concerns including listen to this. Pea helps allergies, respiratory symptoms,
and even fibromyalgia. And because pea has natural anti inflammatory actions,
(24:25):
researchers have investigated its ability to relieve pain in a
variety of conditions, including sciatica, peripheral neuropathy TMJ, just to
name a few. Plus in scientific research on the most
common form of arthritis, which is called osteoarthritis or degenerative arthreatis.
This supplement PEA lowered levels of inflammatory markers showed to
(24:49):
damage cartilage and reduce knee swelling. So if you're looking
to improve your overall health, consider supplementing with PEA by
Terry Naturally Vitamins. That's the company that makes this revolutionary
supplement p e A for relief of acute and chronic pain,
better physical recovery from injuries, and even improved mood and focus,
(25:09):
and a more robust immune system response. Take p e
A by Terry Naturally Vitamins. You may find pe A
at finer health food stores nationwide or go to Terry
Naturally Vitamins dot com Terry Naturally Vitamins dot Com for
(25:30):
p e A the supplement. All right, let's get back
to work now with your doctor. Bob Martin show caller
hotline phone numbers. Next up, Michael calling in from Albuquerque,
New Mexico.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
This is this is Michael. I am from Albuquerque, New Mexico.
The question is does what does messline blue help lower
your white blood cells? So I have leukemia and I'm
trying to lower my white blood self. Thank you very
much sir.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Okay, Michael, thank you for your phone call. You know,
it seems like methylene blue is like the hottest supplement
out there now. I've seen a lot of it on
the internet. Methylene blue, you need to know, is a vasoconstrictor,
and it is. It's used as a dye also, But
(26:26):
it does have some therapeutic value, there's no question about it.
But if you're looking, I mean some people who take it,
their their tongue is like blue for days and weeks,
and their their gums can turn blue. I understand that
you've got a form of cancer, blood cancer, leukemi, and
you're trying to help yourself out. I appreciate that, but
(26:48):
trying to lower your white blood count with methylene blue
is as a salt that's used as a dye and
as a supplement or a medication. These high white blood
counts can indicate obviously in this case, it can indicate
acute infection. But in this case, you have cancer with it.
(27:11):
In my opinion, if you have something as serious as cancer,
you need to be under the care of a doctor
who's completely familiar with blood cancers and can give you
a complete regimen program as to what to do rather
than simply believing that just taking methylene blue can lower
(27:33):
your white blood count without addressing the other underlying problems.
I mean, there's a lot of things that can lower
white white blood cells. Golden seal, garlic, olive leaf extract
or regular oil. I've used them for lowering white blood
cell not necessarily in leukemia cases, but depending on what
(27:53):
kind of leukemia you have. Taking green tea can help
grain tea concentrate, or green tea X distract has been
shown to help a certain form of leukemia. But my
best suggestion to you, Michael, is to consult with a
maybe a functional medicine trained doctor who also treats cancer
(28:15):
patients holistically and alternatively. And if you don't have anybody
that you know or trust in that arena, send me
an email through my website and I will be happy
to refer you to an alternative cancer clinic. And you
can go through the website doctor Bob dot com spelling
out the word doctor docto r bob dot com. But
(28:37):
do look into, in fact, do a Google on leukemia
and green tea extract. I think you'll see something, especially
if you have CLLL form of leukemia. All right, appreciate
your phone call. Good health to you. Next up is
Brenda calling in from Jonesborough, Tennessee.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Brenda from Johnsburg, Tennessee.
Speaker 8 (29:03):
I'm coming about sidic pain in the himps and legs.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
I'm kind to see if you can help me.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
I'd love to be able to help you. And the
best help I can give to you, Brenda, is to
recommend that you immediately call a licensed chiropractic physician in
your area, set up a time to get an examination.
And if the sciatica, which is a large nerve that
(29:34):
passes out of your lower back, goes into both legs,
if that siatica is being felt below your knee, not
only will you need an X ray, but I would
also recommend an MRI because it sounds like there may
be a disk involvement if it's being experienced below your
knee into your calf or your foot. All right, good
health to you, Brenda. Thank you for your phone call.
(29:55):
Stay tuned. You're tuned into the doctor Bob Martinshow.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
So you're sorry?
Speaker 4 (30:06):
So I'm a Bossom number sun Empencible.
Speaker 7 (30:19):
The one never single.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Days a power I.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Don't I'm stoppable today.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
All right, welcome back, to the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Our goal here on this radio program is to help
sick people get well naturally and well people to stay
that way, encouraging you to become your own best doctor
most of the time. And I'll tell you how. All Right,
we are in the middle of an open conversation on
(30:55):
the topic of health. People calling into the Doctor Bob
Martin Show call her line phone number and you can
do the very same thing, and I will answer your
health question on the air. When you call this number
that I'm gonna give you get something to write with.
Simply turn your radio down before you do it, and
(31:15):
then when you hear my voice answer the phone. I'll
ask you to state your first name only, then your
city and state, and then your question or your health
related comment. That number to call is eight hundred six
zero six eight eight two to two one eight hundred
six zero six eighty eight twenty two. Let's get right
(31:39):
back to work with your phone calls and questions. Next
up is John calling in from Huppealoupical, Alabama.
Speaker 7 (31:47):
John Cope, Laca, Alabama. I have a scale on both
my legs. It's flight from the lead down to my
foot and I won't to know if there's any kind
of a cream head itch for I don't know if
there's any kind of cream or something I can put
it on there and eliminate it. And I sure do
like your show. I've been watching it every I mean
(32:09):
listening to it every Sunday night. That I could get
it on the radio and keep up the good work.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Thank you all right, John, thank you for your call.
Appreciate your kind comment there. Yes, John, the scaliness that
you're having on your lower leg, it's very very common
with people who have circulatory problems. Circulatory problem, so putting
something on it is only going to temporarily relieve the
(32:38):
dry skin, the scaliness of it. So I want to
work on this on a different level. I would suggest
number one, Yes, you can help it by taking maybe
a loofa brush or a dry body brush. You can
get these at stores, even health grocery stores. And before
you get into the shower or the bath, give a
(32:58):
good scrub to that area where you're seeing the scales.
Help those scales loosen up so that when water gets
there you can flush them off. So xfoliate, lufa or
a dry body brush. Then if you want, once you
get out and you completely dry off. You can add
(33:19):
to your skin or apply to your skin something called
magaukou or maga rooku skin lotion. Mago Roku skin lotion.
It's by accompanied by the name of essential formulas. It's
in the Doctor Ohira's line of supplements, Mago ro Ku.
(33:43):
It's a Japanese word that I usually butcher when I
say it, Mago rouku skin lotion, and you can find
that perhaps in health food stores, but it's not as
popular as their product Doctor Ohira is probiotics. So I
want to ahead and grabbed the eight hundred number where
(34:03):
you can call the company directly and learn more about
it or order the Magoouku skin lotion. That number is
eight hundred four to three zero six' one eight. Zero
it is fantastic at lubricating the, skin and anybody out
there who's using this toxic vacaline intensive care or any
(34:24):
of the other, chemicals just keep your skin supple and not.
Dry this is your. Alternative trust me and you'll love
me for it when you start on. It Mago roku
Skin lotion at eight hundred four to three zero six
one eight zero eight hundred four to three zero six
(34:44):
one eight. Zero by the, way your skin, dryness AS i,
said is likely a poor circulation. Problem So i'm going
to suggest to you to take additional omega three. Oils
that would be salmon oil or or herring, oil or
sardine oil or even flaxseed. Oil you'll need upwards of
(35:06):
maybe twenty four hundred milligrams of that a couple times
a day on an empty. Stomach that'll help you with
giving your skin kind of a lube job from the inside,
out which is really where the problem. Is so any
omega three oil that you can purchase at a health
food store would be good also to help the circulation
(35:28):
in that lower extremity area and to reduce some of
the inflammation which is certainly there if you have the
scally skin like you're. DESCRIBING i would recommend a supplement
called Vascular, Defense vascular defense with the proteolytic enzyme formulations
and the nitric oxide releasers in. It Vascular defense by
(35:48):
a company called Sun, nutrition and that website where you
can get vascular defense is over there at Sun nutrition
dot Comp sunnutrition dots. Comps so get the exfoliation going
on the area where you see the scaling. Skin loosen
it up with either a loofa or a dry body,
(36:10):
rush which are available in health food, stores health grocery,
stores And i've even seen them in regular big box.
Stores take the essential formulas or Doctor Ohira's magoroku skin.
Lotion apply that a couple times a, day right before
you go into bed at, night and then maybe first
thing in the. Morning make sure you're getting plenty of.
(36:30):

to smoke any. Cigarettes if you are get away from
the Standard american, diet the sad, diet and get to

Take coise AND i AND i could have a. Seizure

tablet forget me from having a.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
Seizure, Okay, Norm, well Look irritable bowle syndrome has many
reasons behind, it And i'm concerned about the seizure side of.
This So i'm going to recommend that for both of,
these the irritable bowel syndrome for at least sixty, days
(39:18):
and for the reduction of any risk of having a,
seizure that you start on a keto. DIET i rarely
recommend keto diets because they're high in, fat but that's
how we help people with seizure, disorders especially that the
ones that are recalcitrant are out of. Control so get
(39:40):
a book norm on The keto. Diet and by the,
way if you want to lose a little bit of,
weight it's going to happen in the first sixty days
on a keto. Diet. Usually of, course you need exercise,
too BUT i would suggest you do that because if you,
do if you're like people THAT i know that have
a seizure, concerns you won't have any on a keto,
(40:02):
diet because that's the diet that we are in the
science shows helps control or eliminate seizures even when people
are taking, dye lantin or some of the anti seizure. Medications,
plus it should help your irritable bowel syndrome because you
(40:24):
may have like a gluten, allergy of gluten intolerance or
some other food. Intolerance and by reducing, that excuse, me
you may get the relief that you. Seek So keto

the website doctor Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor.
(03:09):
And we'll get to your calls a little bit later
in this hour, I promise, all right, We begin with
the issue of manhood being destroyed by a popular hair
growth product. After spending years being insecure about his thinning
hair mark, Milich turned to the Internet to help reverse
(03:31):
his baldness. The former US Army sergeant twenty six years
of age, completed a fourteen question intake on the telehealth
company Hymns. You see these guys advertising on television all
the time hymns dot com, and he received a bottle
(03:52):
of anti balding pills at his home from HIMS with
that he ordered online. Within six months of taking the
drug Finessterde, he began experience dizziness, fatigue, cold sweats, slurring
of his words, which he described as feeling lobottomized. Worst
(04:14):
of all, his testicles shrank and changed shapes. Oh my gosh,
if that is disclosed to men up front, I'm doubting
a whole lot of men are going to be placing
that order, hitting that order button right at the end
of their experience online. That's right out of completely scary.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
So in.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Fear of his mental state, this US Army former US
Army Sergeant Mark Millich in fear of his mental state
as a result taking this drug that was supposed to
grow hair on his head, he stopped taking theteride that
he got at hymns dot com, but soon after even
(05:06):
worse side effects kicked in. His libido plunged, and his
genitals shrank and changed shapes as a result of taking
the hair growth product. As a former soldier continues to
battle his situation, he claims that the telehealth company never
(05:30):
shared information about the dangerous side effects of the drug
and falsely advertised the medication well that may be true.
I mean, these companies that are advertising on television, they
tell you know, and sometimes they do it really fast
and very slick and very quick, trying to bamboozle you
into buying these risky drugs. I mean, if they had
(05:53):
to tell you the side effects of this drug called finesteride,
it would take up all a lot of time. They
wouldn't be able to get that thirty or sixty second
commercial in, and people wouldn't buy the products. So they
gloss over it and some of them don't even disclose
it to you. But this finesteride, the generic name is Propecia.
(06:14):
Maybe you know somebody who's struggling with hair loss or
thinning hair and they're getting stressed out over that, you
might let them know about his experience. Mark Millich, this
twenty six year old US Army sergeant, how he took
it under the offmuses that it would solve his balding
(06:35):
situation that he was becoming self conscious about. And so
he took it without having any potential side effects disclosed
to him by HIMS, the company hims dot com, and
he started to his health started to just circle the drain.
Finesteride is the generic name of Provicia. It's recommended by
(06:57):
doctors in cases of male baldness to help improve hair
growth and hair count over time. Now, in the male body,
in our bodies, we males, we have an enzyme called
five a reductase. It's responsible for converting testosterone into a
hormone called DHT dihydro testosterone that as DHD, causes hair
(07:21):
to become shorter and thinner. It's the bane of hair
loss and it relates to male and females even and
eventually stopping the growing process of the affected area. This
DHD does body can't handle, it can't break it down
like it used to, and the finesteride, the drug Propecia,
(07:43):
reduces the amount of DHD produced in the body by
blocking the production of this enzyme that males produce. We
all produce it. But the DHT is also crucial in
sexual arousal, rectile function, and genitalch and its reduction can
negatively impact these functions. In some cases, including mister Militch's case,
(08:09):
the side effects persist even after stopping Propecia or finesteride.
This is known as post finesteride syndrome. Oh they got
another name for another syndrome, and of course the only
reason for that is so that doctors can get paid
that way. There's a code, it's a chain and can
(08:31):
include when you take this Propecia or finesterride, long term
sexual dysfunction, depression, and even cognitive issues. As of twenty
twenty four, over almost three million Americans are taking this
hair loss Propecia drug, an increase of nearly two hundred
percent over the last seven years, according to a report
(08:54):
by Epic Research. And of course what drives that advertising
Hymn's advertising day in day out, promising these balding males
that all they have to do is just take this
little pill or rub the stuff in their head and
they'll have a full head of hair, not realizing the
horrendous side effects that they may experience as part of
(09:17):
taking the drug Propecia. Between one and one hundred and
one in ten men suffer at least one of its
major side effects. Doctor Justin Howeman, a urologist at Cedar
Sina and Medical Center in Los Angeles, told The Wall
Street Journal that an increasing number of young men have
(09:37):
been left plagued his words, plagued by sexual side effects
from Propecia. Also known as finessterode. The side effects are very,
very common, the doctor says these days due to accessibility
of the drug from companies such as Hymn's hi ms
(10:00):
dot com. Also, the specialist worn this is not something
young men should take. According to hymns dot com, the
twenty two dollars bottle of oral once a day Finesteride
or Perpisia tablets can help reverse hair loss, but a
hymns dot com spokesperson confirmed to The Wall Street Journal
that customers go through a comprehensive intake that is reviewed
(10:23):
by a licensed provider who makes a clinical determination about
the patient's eligibility for the medication. It comes about a
month after Hymns and Hers has been slammed for its
Super Bowl commercial. You may may remember this that ammonished
admonished Americans for being obese and shamed the healthcare industry,
(10:46):
then promised weight loss drugs at a sixty second commercial.
How bold is that? So if you're losing your hair,
I would not use finesteride or propisia. I'm doctor Bob Martin, this.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Is my son, Take Back My Life, sne.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
My Pablos. You're tuned into the doctor Bob Martin Show,
and for that I so appreciate you. Thank you all.
(11:30):
Right now, I have neglected to mention that we have
a health phole question going on my website right now,
and it's really related to the first hour of the program,
wherein I talked about how a medical test given to
millions of Americans may be causing an explosion in tumors.
(11:54):
And that medical test is given. It's a diagnostic test,
it's an important test, it can be life saving, but
it's often given unnecessarily, either for profitability or cya or
who knows, a lot of doctors just say, okay, so
let's get a scan. I'll authorize that you get a
(12:14):
CT scan because we can't find or can't determine your problem,
so you need it. And then people go and get
it without realizing that they've had the equivalent of a
madominal CT scan, the equivalent of taking over one hundred
chest X rays, and now people are screaming about the
fact that there's a lot of tumors associated with the
(12:35):
test itself, worse than maybe the disease they're looking for.
So there's a health poll question on my website at
doctor Bob dot com. Spelling out the word doctor. Do
oct o r Bob dot com asking you do you
think CT or computed tomography is what that stands for?
(12:56):
Do you think CT scans are over you used in
your opinion? Yes or no? Vote on that over on
my website at doctor Bob dot com, spelling out the
word doctor, doctor Bob dot com. All right, very very soon,
I'm going to go to questions on the Doctor Bob
Martin show call or hotline phone where I just wanted
(13:17):
to mention, you know that the the case that I
spoke about earlier, Mark Millich, the former US Army sergeant
twenty six years of age, a total cluster, you know what,
as a result of taking the hair growth product Propecia
that he got on the website hymns dot com. That's
not the only one. I was looking at another one
(13:39):
during the break there, Kyle, another person taking this drug
on you know, founded on online sales prescribing it for
men with hair loss and thinning hair down playing always
the potential adverse side effects of the drug. I didn't
even tell you that one of the side effects of
(14:01):
this drug, Finestride, also known as Propecia for hair loss
includes suicidal thoughts and impotence. Yet some big brand companies
will send the pills in the in the postal service
through the postal service without seeing or even chatting with
the customer. It happens. It's the wild wild West as
(14:24):
it relates to dispensing this drug for hair loss, because
a lot of these men are absolutely desperate to stop
their hair loss. They think it's the end of the
world because their hair is thinning out. They're starting to
see their scalp and they'll do anything anything, And if
it's easy as swallowing a pill they could give a
you know what that their side effects, they'll take their
chances as long as they can get a full head
(14:45):
of hair and get back to feeling good about themselves.
But I'm telling you this drug, finesteride and Propecia, is
disastrous and it's not a good thing to do, and
I do not recommend it.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
All.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Right now, we're going to turn our attention to the
Doctor Bob Martin Show Caller hotline phone number where I
take questions from our listenership, and you can also access
this number if you have a question about yourself or
you have a health related comment. I'm available to address
that at my expense. It's free ninety nine. Will that
(15:21):
work for you? All you need to do is call
this number and tell doctor Bob where it hurts, no
matter what it is you're having trouble with health wise
one eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two
eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. And
you can call any time of the night or day
because you'll hear me answer the phone. I'll ask you
(15:42):
to state your first name, only the city and state
you're living in, and then your question or your health comment.
It's that simple. One eight hundred six zero six eight
eight two to two. Here we go. First stop, we
say hello to Jerry calling in from Spokane, Washington.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
Hi, this is Jerry from spoke Can Washington. I'm scheduled
to have cataract surgery this summer, and at eighty nine
years old, I'm wondering if CANC can help me now
or if I waited too late. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
All right, Jerry, thank you for your phone call. He's
talking about can see I drops the only known clinically
tested peer review published in medical journals. I drop that
cannot only prevent cataracts from happening, but can reverse cataracts
at a certain stage. So, Jerry, the answer is, it's
never too late. And think about it, Jerry, because there's
(16:38):
no guarantee that the cataract surgery won't cause you to
go completely blind. I've seen it. In fact, I have
a good friend who's a pharmacist who had cataract surgery
and they damaged his retina. He's blind now in that eye.
I mean he could see something out of the eye.
It was cloudy in that eye, but now it's lights
(17:00):
out black because of the surgeon. Now that doesn't happen
very often, but it can happen. So think about that.
I mean, how hard would it be for you over
the next maybe three to six months, try the can
see eye drops with the nsetyl carna scene in and
if your vision improves and you're able to waylay or
delay or stop that surgery from happening, wouldn't that be
(17:23):
fantastic and not take the risk of having your eye
cut on a traumatized eye already that is struggling with
cataract at cloudy lens, having more more trauma induced to
it putting an artificial lens in there. So yes, it's
never too late, never too late to try. Can see
(17:43):
eye drops by Wise Choice Medicine and in case for
people who are hearing about this for the very first time,
you can find out more about this over at wise
Choice Medicine dot com. Wise Choice Medicine dot com can
see I drops, c an see I drops, or you
can call them toll free eight hundred eight six one
(18:04):
four nine three six eight hundred eight six one four
nine three six. All right, appreciate your phone call, Jerry.
Next up, we say hello to Becky and Ralla, Missouri.
Speaker 6 (18:16):
My name is Becky. I'm in Ralla, Missouri. My question
is I'm starting to have some problems walking. It seems
like it's mostly in my knees a little bit in
my back. You have what would be causing that and
(18:38):
what might help to alleviate the problem? Thank you?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
All right, Becky, Actually, thank you for your call. It
could be related. Your back problem and your knee problems
could be related, could be structural problems, and that's where
I would begin trouble with knees and your back first
and foremost, I would visit your chiropractic physician for a
(19:04):
structural or biomechanical checkup, because if there's misalignment of your
pelvic structure or your lower back. There's where the nerves
feed to your knees, so the back problem can refer
to your knees. It may not be a knee problem
at all. It may be coming from your back or
if there are structural malalignment problems with your knee, there's
(19:29):
a disk in the knee that can bulge out medially
towards the middle or latterly outside, and that bulging disc
can throw the knee balance out of balance, and that
can then up above throw the pelvis and lower back
out of balance and create that issue. So it needs
to be checked out biomechanically first. Many of these things
(19:51):
are missed in a conventional medical setting, but doctors of
chiropractic can spot and they can also determine whether it's
osteoarthritis or some type of inflammatory process in your spine
or your lower body. So I would do that first,
(20:11):
And if you want to use something for the inflammation
and the pain that you're having, start taking something called
cuamed see you are a med CUREMED and something called
vect Omega, which is basically omega three fish oil, which
is anti inflammatory. Both of these supplements are anti inflammatory
(20:33):
without destroying your stomach like aspirin and ibuprofen, and without
destroying your kidneys, without destroying your liver as in the
case of acetamtaphin or a leave or motorn or any
of these things. All those drugs have destructive effects not
only on the cartilage that's trying to rebuild, but also
other parts of your body. So curemed by Terry Natural
vitamins and vect omega. All right, Becky, thank you for
(20:57):
your phone call. I'm doctor Bob Martin for the right excuse?
Are you waiting for sign and choose?
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Why are you waiting?
Speaker 4 (21:06):
It's the time is.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Five, I'm coming on life.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Fine, type in phone.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Mon are you in phone?
Speaker 7 (21:30):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Happy and very healthy? Welcome or welcome back in that
one's sound to this hour of the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
We are smack dab in the middle of an conversation
taking your phone calls on the topic of health via
the Doctor Bob Martin Show Caller Hotline phone number. Now
you're hearing people call in. You can do the very
(21:52):
same thing in the convenience and privacy of your home
or business anytime you like. Call this number. With your
health question. You'll hear me answer the phone. I'll ask
you to state your first name, city only, state only,
and your question or comment. It's that simple, that number.
Eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. Now
(22:16):
turn your radio down before you make that call. If
you're calling during the show. I don't want that. My
voice blaring in the background is very distracting to the listener.
Eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two Nationwide
one eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two.
We'll get back to phone calls and health related questions momentarily,
(22:38):
but I want to tell you about an amazing breakthrough.
You know, we keep learning with all this sophistication we
have in the area of analysis of food elements and
ingredients in plant material. And some of these plants have
been used as medicines for hundreds or thousands of years.
(23:00):
We don't know why they work. And finally we're learning
why they work. We're learning about them and how to
tease them out from the plant itself to find out
what the secret sauce is, if you will, in that plant,
that makes that plant so medicinal, so healthy for human health.
One of those ingredients it's kind of a technical and
(23:20):
ingredient to try to remember. It's called palmitoi lethanolamine. But
you don't have to worry about that one. What you
have to remember is for short. That word for short
is pea. It's a special nutrient. Boy is it ever,
And it's found in very minute, minuscule quantities in egg
(23:44):
yolks and other foods. You'd have to eat a pile
of eggs and other foods to get enough to be therapeutic.
But they finally figured out a way to isolate this
pea substance and put it into a nutritional supplement. Scientific
research shows that pea can address muscle pain and recovery
(24:04):
arthritis symptoms, improve your mobility or range of motion, and
even help your cognitive health and a multitude of other
concerns including listen to this. Pea helps allergies, respiratory symptoms,
and even fibromyalgia. And because pea has natural anti inflammatory actions,
(24:25):
researchers have investigated its ability to relieve pain in a
variety of conditions, including sciatica, peripheral neuropathy TMJ, just to
name a few. Plus in scientific research on the most
common form of arthritis, which is called osteoarthritis or degenerative arthreatis.
This supplement PEA lowered levels of inflammatory markers showed to
(24:49):
damage cartilage and reduce knee swelling. So if you're looking
to improve your overall health, consider supplementing with PEA by
Terry Naturally Vitamins. That's the company that makes this revolutionary
supplement p e A for relief of acute and chronic pain,
better physical recovery from injuries, and even improved mood and focus,
(25:09):
and a more robust immune system response. Take p e
A by Terry Naturally Vitamins. You may find pe A
at finer health food stores nationwide or go to Terry
Naturally Vitamins dot com Terry Naturally Vitamins dot Com for
(25:30):
p e A the supplement. All right, let's get back
to work now with your doctor. Bob Martin show caller
hotline phone numbers. Next up, Michael calling in from Albuquerque,
New Mexico.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
This is this is Michael. I am from Albuquerque, New Mexico.
The question is does what does messline blue help lower
your white blood cells? So I have leukemia and I'm
trying to lower my white blood self. Thank you very
much sir.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Okay, Michael, thank you for your phone call. You know,
it seems like methylene blue is like the hottest supplement
out there now. I've seen a lot of it on
the internet. Methylene blue, you need to know, is a vasoconstrictor,
and it is. It's used as a dye also, But
(26:26):
it does have some therapeutic value, there's no question about it.
But if you're looking, I mean some people who take it,
their their tongue is like blue for days and weeks,
and their their gums can turn blue. I understand that
you've got a form of cancer, blood cancer, leukemi, and
you're trying to help yourself out. I appreciate that, but
(26:48):
trying to lower your white blood count with methylene blue
is as a salt that's used as a dye and
as a supplement or a medication. These high white blood
counts can indicate obviously in this case, it can indicate
acute infection. But in this case, you have cancer with it.
(27:11):
In my opinion, if you have something as serious as cancer,
you need to be under the care of a doctor
who's completely familiar with blood cancers and can give you
a complete regimen program as to what to do rather
than simply believing that just taking methylene blue can lower
(27:33):
your white blood count without addressing the other underlying problems.
I mean, there's a lot of things that can lower
white white blood cells. Golden seal, garlic, olive leaf extract
or regular oil. I've used them for lowering white blood
cell not necessarily in leukemia cases, but depending on what
(27:53):
kind of leukemia you have. Taking green tea can help
grain tea concentrate, or green tea X distract has been
shown to help a certain form of leukemia. But my
best suggestion to you, Michael, is to consult with a
maybe a functional medicine trained doctor who also treats cancer
(28:15):
patients holistically and alternatively. And if you don't have anybody
that you know or trust in that arena, send me
an email through my website and I will be happy
to refer you to an alternative cancer clinic. And you
can go through the website doctor Bob dot com spelling
out the word doctor docto r bob dot com. But
(28:37):
do look into, in fact, do a Google on leukemia
and green tea extract. I think you'll see something, especially
if you have CLLL form of leukemia. All right, appreciate
your phone call. Good health to you. Next up is
Brenda calling in from Jonesborough, Tennessee.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Brenda from Johnsburg, Tennessee.
Speaker 8 (29:03):
I'm coming about sidic pain in the himps and legs.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
I'm kind to see if you can help me.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
I'd love to be able to help you. And the
best help I can give to you, Brenda, is to
recommend that you immediately call a licensed chiropractic physician in
your area, set up a time to get an examination.
And if the sciatica, which is a large nerve that
(29:34):
passes out of your lower back, goes into both legs,
if that siatica is being felt below your knee, not
only will you need an X ray, but I would
also recommend an MRI because it sounds like there may
be a disk involvement if it's being experienced below your
knee into your calf or your foot. All right, good
health to you, Brenda. Thank you for your phone call.

do the very same thing, and I will answer your
health question on the air. When you call this number
that I'm gonna give you get something to write with.
Simply turn your radio down before you do it, and
(31:15):
then when you hear my voice answer the phone. I'll
ask you to state your first name only, then your
city and state, and then your question or your health
related comment. That number to call is eight hundred six
zero six eight eight two to two one eight hundred
six zero six eighty eight twenty two. Let's get right
(31:39):
back to work with your phone calls and questions. Next
up is John calling in from Huppealoupical, Alabama.
Speaker 7 (31:47):
John Cope, Laca, Alabama. I have a scale on both
my legs. It's flight from the lead down to my
foot and I won't to know if there's any kind
of a cream head itch for I don't know if
there's any kind of cream or something I can put
it on there and eliminate it. And I sure do
like your show. I've been watching it every I mean
(32:09):
listening to it every Sunday night. That I could get
it on the radio and keep up the good work.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Thank you all right, John, thank you for your call.
Appreciate your kind comment there. Yes, John, the scaliness that
you're having on your lower leg, it's very very common
with people who have circulatory problems. Circulatory problem, so putting
something on it is only going to temporarily relieve the
(32:38):
dry skin, the scaliness of it. So I want to
work on this on a different level. I would suggest
number one, Yes, you can help it by taking maybe
a loofa brush or a dry body brush. You can
get these at stores, even health grocery stores. And before
you get into the shower or the bath, give a
(32:58):
good scrub to that area where you're seeing the scales.
Help those scales loosen up so that when water gets
there you can flush them off. So xfoliate, lufa or
a dry body brush. Then if you want, once you
get out and you completely dry off. You can add
(33:19):
to your skin or apply to your skin something called
magaukou or maga rooku skin lotion. Mago Roku skin lotion.
It's by accompanied by the name of essential formulas. It's
in the Doctor Ohira's line of supplements, Mago ro Ku.
(33:43):
It's a Japanese word that I usually butcher when I
say it, Mago rouku skin lotion, and you can find
that perhaps in health food stores, but it's not as
popular as their product Doctor Ohira is probiotics. So I
want to ahead and grabbed the eight hundred number where
(34:03):
you can call the company directly and learn more about
it or order the Magoouku skin lotion. That number is
eight hundred four to three zero six' one eight. Zero
it is fantastic at lubricating the, skin and anybody out
there who's using this toxic vacaline intensive care or any
(34:24):
of the other, chemicals just keep your skin supple and not.
Dry this is your. Alternative trust me and you'll love
me for it when you start on. It Mago roku
Skin lotion at eight hundred four to three zero six
one eight zero eight hundred four to three zero six
(34:44):
one eight. Zero by the, way your skin, dryness AS i,
said is likely a poor circulation. Problem So i'm going
to suggest to you to take additional omega three. Oils
that would be salmon oil or or herring, oil or
sardine oil or even flaxseed. Oil you'll need upwards of
(35:06):
maybe twenty four hundred milligrams of that a couple times
a day on an empty. Stomach that'll help you with
giving your skin kind of a lube job from the inside,
out which is really where the problem. Is so any
omega three oil that you can purchase at a health
food store would be good also to help the circulation
(35:28):
in that lower extremity area and to reduce some of
the inflammation which is certainly there if you have the
scally skin like you're. DESCRIBING i would recommend a supplement
called Vascular, Defense vascular defense with the proteolytic enzyme formulations
and the nitric oxide releasers in. It Vascular defense by
(35:48):
a company called Sun, nutrition and that website where you
can get vascular defense is over there at Sun nutrition
dot Comp sunnutrition dots. Comps so get the exfoliation going
on the area where you see the scaling. Skin loosen
it up with either a loofa or a dry body,
(36:10):
rush which are available in health food, stores health grocery,
stores And i've even seen them in regular big box.
Stores take the essential formulas or Doctor Ohira's magoroku skin.
Lotion apply that a couple times a, day right before
you go into bed at, night and then maybe first
thing in the. Morning make sure you're getting plenty of.
(36:30):
Exercise walking exercise will help. Greatly, obviously you don't want
to smoke any. Cigarettes if you are get away from
the Standard american, diet the sad, diet and get to
more of A mediterranean. Diet pump up The omega three
oil supplements and then take this vascular defense formula over

Missouri Mitchell. BASURAH i got eatable bolt syndrome because they
got try and brings you from Car accent AND i
Take coise AND i AND i could have a. Seizure
AND i Take Motigen cooise one tablet And MultiGen miligram
(38:53):
tablet forget me from having a.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
Seizure, Okay, Norm, well Look irritable bowle syndrome has many
reasons behind, it And i'm concerned about the seizure side of.
This So i'm going to recommend that for both of,
these the irritable bowel syndrome for at least sixty, days
(39:18):
and for the reduction of any risk of having a,
seizure that you start on a keto. DIET i rarely
recommend keto diets because they're high in, fat but that's
how we help people with seizure, disorders especially that the
ones that are recalcitrant are out of. Control so get
(39:40):
a book norm on The keto. Diet and by the,
way if you want to lose a little bit of,
weight it's going to happen in the first sixty days
on a keto. Diet. Usually of, course you need exercise,
too BUT i would suggest you do that because if you,
do if you're like people THAT i know that have
a seizure, concerns you won't have any on a keto,
(40:02):
diet because that's the diet that we are in the
science shows helps control or eliminate seizures even when people
are taking, dye lantin or some of the anti seizure. Medications,
plus it should help your irritable bowel syndrome because you
(40:24):
may have like a gluten, allergy of gluten intolerance or
some other food. Intolerance and by reducing, that excuse, me
you may get the relief that you. Seek So keto
k et o diet for you norm and good. Health
