I. Organic drivers set the ceiling. Mutable drivers set the strategy.
Hypogonadism, vascular disease, medication effects, and systemic illness shift the baseline. But breathing, pelvic floor control, arousal training, and mechanical factors still influence function inside that baseline.

II. Prognosis improves when you stop promising a “fix” and start building gains.
For systemic ED, the win is often 5 to 15 percent: better initiation, better maintenance, better pleasure, better confidence. That is not a consolation prize. That is the plan.

III. Ejaculation quality is a clue, not just a complaint.
“Dribbling out,” absent pre-ejaculate, and reduced orgasm pleasure can reflect pelvic floor force, coordination, arousal pacing, or a broader endocrine picture. Document it, then decide what is trainable.

I. Richard Feynman: “The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool.”
If you skip organic vs mutable, you will overpromise or undertreat.

II. Yogi Berra: “In theory there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is.”
Your plan must survive real-life sex, real-life stress, and real-life follow-through.

What is one mutable lever you can test this week that would create a measurable change, even if the organic driver stays?
