How comfortable are you talking about urinary leakage, sexual pain, changes in libido, and how long sex lasts with a friend? How about your doctor? So many women are struggling with sexual health and genitourinary issues and not talking with anyone about it, much less getting help.

From social stigma and the media’s portrayal of how women’s bodies should look, behave, and perform there is outward and inward pressure on how we’re supposed to show up in our daily lives and in our relationships.

Maybe you’ve peed a little when you laughed or sneezed, or you’ve had a partner say something negative about you or your body that made you feel less than or embarrassed.

From our discomfort and embarrassment to our lack of awareness and knowledge, our sexual self-esteem takes a beating when it comes to how we see ourselves. But this changes today! I'm chatting with Dr. Rena Malik, urologist and expert in Female Pelvic Medicine & Reconstructive Surgery (FPMRS)/Urogynecology.

- How did Dr. Malik decide to specialize in this area
- Myths about female sexual health
- What is urinary incontinence & what do we need to know
- Why do we experience changes in libido
- How long does sex actually last
- How to talk to our doctors about or symptoms & concerns
- And much, much more
