Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with ObGyn Dr. Anna Cabeca, author of "MenuPause: Five Unique Eating Plans to Break Through Your Weight Loss Plateau and Improve Mood, Sleep, and Hot Flashes." 

Menopause can pose severe challenges to women: hot flashes, cognitive impairment, sleep problems, and sexual difficulties, often compounded by weight gain. ObGyn Dr. Anna Cabeca is schooled in mainstream medicine but has added a natural medicine repertoire to her practice. She recounts how she learned to overcome her own devastating symptoms of early menopause. She believes that diets need to be individualized for menopausal women. Find her quiz to determine your menopause type at www.DrAnna.com/mpquiz. We discuss the role of supplements and bio-identical hormone replacement to augment tailored diets. Her book, "MenuPause: Five Unique Eating Plans to Break Through Your Weight Loss Plateau and Improve Mood, Sleep, and Hot Flashes," highlights the role variations on the keto diet and intermittent fasting can play in alleviating menopause symptoms and reversing mid-life weight gain. 

Hello & Welcome To This Week's Episode! I'm really excited to share the conversation that I recently had with Dr Lori Brotto, and to take a dive into the research around mindfulness & pelvic health If you're enrolled in my Female Pelvic Pain Rehab or my Female Sexual Dysfunction courses, you'll know that I love the research of Dr Lori Brotto; I think she makes the science around mindfulness & pelvic health clinically useful & accessible Dr Brotto is a researcher and clinician who has authored over 150 papers on the benefits of mindfulness and she is also the author of one of my most recommended books, 'Better Sex Through Mindfulness: How Women Can Cultivate Desire' She is a fan of multimodal biopsychosocial approaches to pelvic health, whether we are talking about GSM at menopause, vestibulodynia and sexual health concerns including lack of desire In this conversation we discuss: what mindfulness is, and how it can significantly affect pelvic health issues, from vestibulodynia to dyspareunia how stress affects desire, and the differences between male an female responses how to incorporate mindfulness when working with people who have vestibulodynia, as part of a multimodal approach why we don't necessarily have to avoid painful touch - teaching people resilience and self-management and what to do in a flare and much more! I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did - I've been practicing and teaching mindfulness for years now but I definitely picked up some more pearls of wisdom here! You can find Dr Brotto on Instagram as @drloribrotto and she also features on Masterclass (in the Menopause class) and The Principles of Pleasure on Netflix If you'd like to learn more about multi-modal approaches to pelvic health AND ave some money, don't forget to use the code COCCYX24 at checkout on any of my online courses to save €75 - but only until the end of this month!

Futura Medical Plc Head of R&D Ken James joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share the company's latest developments in sexual health solutions. Futura's flagship product, Eroxon, is a topical gel for erectile dysfunction (ED) that offers a rapid onset in under 10 minutes, setting it apart from traditional oral medications. “Eroxon has a very, very good side effect profile,” noted James, highlighting its suitability as an over-the-counter option for ED. In response to consumer demand, Futura is developing an enhanced version called Eroxon Intense, catering to users seeking a stronger effect. This approach aligns with common consumer healthcare strategies, such as variations in pain relief formulations, allowing the company to meet diverse customer needs. In addition to Eroxon, Futura is working on an innovative product targeting female sexual dysfunction—a pressing yet often overlooked need, especially post-menopause, affecting up to 50% of women according to research. This female-focused product is showing promising early study results, and Futura plans to advance to broader trials and engage with the U.S. FDA for over-the-counter approval. With ongoing global partnerships and active engagement with regulatory authorities, Futura aims to establish a significant presence in both the male and female sexual health markets. These advancements are backed by extensive research and a solid financial foundation, positioning Futura as a leader in addressing critical gaps in sexual health solutions. #proactiveinvestors #futuramedicalplc #aim #fum #ed #erectiledysfuntion #sexualhealth #femalesexualdysfunction #WomensHealth #FDAApproval #Pharmaceuticals #HealthcareInnovation #OTCProducts #ProactiveInvestors #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD] Guest: Richa Sood, M.D., M.S. Concerns and problems related to sexual health in women are common and can be very distressing. They can occur at any stage of life and can lead to issues with self-image and potential problems in establishing and maintaining relationships with a partner. To complicate things, this problem is often not mentioned by the patient when they are seen by their health care provider. The issues are often complex and can involve physiology, emotions, lifestyle as well as several other factors. In this podcast, we'll discuss female sexual concerns and dysfunction. What are common sexual problems patients experience? How do we evaluate the patient's concerns? How are the problems managed and most importantly, how do we encourage our patients to let us know when they are having problems related to their sexual health. My guest is Richa Sood, M.D., M.S., an internist and specialist in women's health at the Mayo Clinic.

She's written features for The Guardian, Cosmopolitan, Metro and been a guest on BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour. I invited Fran to chat on the pod about her book: My Broken Vagina. The book follows her funny, moving, and sometimes awkward quest to fix her sex life. It mirrors the story of millions of women everywhere - with half of all women having felt pain during sex.During Fran's journey towards a better relationship with her genitals, doctors advised her to have a glass of wine to loosen up, and male friends suggested she simply hadn't 'tried' the right penis yet. Unsurprisingly, neither worked.After a visit to Sex Camp and many attempts to fix her 'broken' vagina, Fran decided to share her own hilarious, excruciating, and sometimes upsetting experiences. With the help of her 16 year old self's diary, expert advice, candid and enlightening interviews with others about sex, and some self-care exercises, Fran sets about trying to make herself, and other people, feel like they're not being gaslit by their own vaginas.In this episode, we chat about female sexual dysfunction and the variations, vaginismus, self esteem and mental health, staying present and much more!Submit your dating questions through madsworld.mp3, and my guests and I will answer them on the show!

Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men's Health Hour Podcast today, where we bring you the latest and greatest in urology care and the best urology humor out there.In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee discuss female sexual dysfunction. Although many people assume urologists deal primarily with urologic issues in men, we actually see many women for a variety of concerns, including sexual health and function. In fact, OB-GYNs often refer their female patients experiencing pain or dysfunction to us. The four main issues experienced by women with female sexual dysfunction are issues of interest, arousal, orgasm, and pain. While the first three of these issues can be overcome by "faking it until you make it," there are effective ways to treat these issues and enhance sexual experience. FDA approved prescriptions like Vyleesi and Addyi help women achieve arousal and even orgasm by increasing blood flow and clitoral sensitivity. The fourth issue--pain--is a real intimacy killer that can be difficult to get past for both women and their partners. This common condition can often be treated through pelvic floor physical therapy, which helps to address any physical issues that may be presenting. The most important thing to note is that women need not accept their female sexual dysfunction. If you or someone you love is experiencing any of these concerns, please reach out to us today!This episode previously aired on 10.23.21. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share us with a friend!

In this episode of Intimacy Play, Mikaela is joined by Fran Bushe, an Award-Winning Comedian, Writer & Performer. They discuss female sexual dysfunction: what it is, the symptoms and why people don't talk about it.

In this episode, we sit with Dr Javaid who is a female sexual health expert and the founder of HERmd, and we discuss a very common issue that affects over 50% of women in America. Sexual dysfunction is a pervasive condition that many women deal with but do not speak about because of the stigma that surrounds it. Today we discuss all things female sexual interests and arousal dysphoria. 

Speaker: Rachel S. Rubin, MD

Dr. Jessica McClease is a professional marriage counselor and sex therapist with a specialty in helping women overcome sexual issues. She often says sex is a reflection of the goodness and creativity of a loving God and sex in your marriage is a reflection of the relationship that you've already developed with your spouse. In this episode, we talk about: The fact that every person on the planet experiences sexual dysfunction at some period in their life, and that solutions are within reach Problems with sexual dysfunction that are unique to some individuals growing up in modern-day Christian cultures We discuss common sexual issues women face, such as inhibited sexual desire, inhibited arousal, vaginismus, painful intercourse (dyspareunia), vaginal dryness, and orgasm difficulties The role of physical, relational, and mental health in each of these concerns What to do if you have ongoing concerns The role of pelvic floor therapists How husbands can help support their wife if she's experiencing these things We finish off with some advanced "black belt" sex tips from this sexpert!

Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men's Health Hour Podcast today, where we bring you the latest and greatest in urology care and the best urology humor out there.In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee discuss Votiva, an FDA-approved device that uses radio frequency (RF) energy waves to heat and stimulate the cells of the vagina and vulva (external skin), causing micro trauma. This increases collagen and elastin fiber production. As a result, vaginal moisture, blood flow and elasticity increases. This episode also addresses female sexual dysfunction, which can be caused by a number of things that all result in women avoiding sexual intimacy. The four main issues experienced by women with female sexual dysfunction are issues of interest, arousal, orgasm, and pain. While the first three of these issues can be overcome by "faking it until you make it," the fourth--pain--is a real intimacy killer that can be difficult to get past for both women and their partners. Increasing the health of the vagina can go a long way towards addressing each of the four issues mentioned above, many of which can impact each other, as when vaginal dryness (caused by lack of arousal) increases vaginal pain and vice-versa. The most important thing to note is that women need not live with female sexual dysfunction. If you enjoyed today's episode, don't forget to like, subscribe, and share us with a friend!

Dr Sherif Wakil is a pioneer in the field of “Sexual Aesthetics”. He has created a unique combination of treatments tailor made for each patient to treat Male & Female Sexual Dysfunction.The O shot for women is a pioneering technique involving a PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) injection into the vagina to rejuvenate it and enhance a woman’s sexual pleasure. Ahem, whats not to love!And for the men, size really does matter when it comes to the thickness or girth of their manhood. It is reported that 45% of men are dissatisfied with their penis size. Not anymore, Dr Sherif Wakil can augment the penis using safe and effective soft tissue fillers.We discuss everything from locating the G spot (no compass required), enhancing the orgasm (did you know there are 2 types?) to becoming the 'Master in Sexual Aesthetics'

Chances are you’ve probably heard of the “ little blue pill” that gives men erections almost like magic. But have you ever heard of Flibanserin? This “female Viagra” is the topic of this week’s episode, where we start with a little science and biology but of course get into some history, learning about Erectile Dysfunction, Female Sexual Dysfunction and how their histories differ so vastly. Ranging from Mesopotamian spells that men used to cast on each other to ward off virility-stealers to the DSM-V and how its use and misuse affects women’s mental and sexual health to this day. In our Feminist Corner, we discuss the concept of “normal”, especially in the context of sexual dysfunction, and what the “Charmed Circle” is as well as how it’s used to understand sex in larger circles of society. Flibanserin deserves more of a role in the spotlight, so that’s exactly what we’re giving her!

Human sexual response is a highly individual and emotional process. Sexual dysfunction is common among women and leads to personal distress.

In Episode #25 we have the great pleasure in interviewing Carolyn Vandyken - an extremely knowledgeable and experienced pelvic health and musculoskeletal physiotherapist (and educator!) based in Canada. This is a must-listen for anyone who works with clients who have musculoskeletal pain or pelvic floor dysfunction - ie EVERYONE! Carolyn is a physiotherapist, educator, researcher and advocate in the areas of low back pain, pelvic health and pain science. She has been practicing for 33 years and is passionate about helping therapists get out of their silos and integrate a biopsychosocial perspective. Her research is in the area of connecting pelvic health to low back pain. In this interview, we discuss - what pelvic pain is and what it might look like - the link between the lumbar spine and pelvic pain - how pelvic floor dysfunction might masquerade as other types of musculoskeletal pain such as low back or groin pain - why pelvic floor screening is so important for all musculoskeletal /sports physiotherapists and fitness professionals to consider and how they might go about it - why consideration of the whole person is so important when helping clients with symptoms of pelvic pain or pelvic floor dysfunction If you would like to get in touch with Carolyn Vandyken you can find her at: https://www.physioworksmuskoka.com  Here are some of the articles that Carolyn wanted to share with everyone: Hilton S, Vandyken C. 2011.

Welcome to "Medical Myths," a new series on the Medicus podcast where we explore misinformation and common misunderstandings in the healthcare world, with the goal to help dispel common myths and promote education and awareness. Today’s episode focuses on women’s health, specifically women’s pleasure and pain. We interviewed Jen Romanello, a medical student at Rush Medical College in Chicago who has previously done extensive work in women’s health, which she considers a passion. Before medical school, Jen was an Ambassador at Planned Parenthood of Metropolitan Washington, DC. In this role, she created a panel with local physicians and health educators open to the public titled, "I LIKE IT: A Conversation on Female Pleasure and Sexual Communication" on raising the consciousness of how women can more readily identify and communicate what is pleasurable for them in their own lives. She has worked at a global fertility practice doing clinical research and also served on the organization’s ethics committee. She keeps a blog about exploring the intersection of bioethics, women’s health, and identity, and she graduated from the George Washington University with B.S. in Biological Sciences and a minor in Applied Ethics. So, how "cliterate" are you? What myths about women’s health are you holding onto? Tune in to find out!

“Discovery requires serendipity but serendipity is not a chance event alone. It is a process in which a chance of event is seized upon by a creative person who chooses to pay attention to the event, unravel its mystery and find a proper application for it.” In this episode of Made You Think, Neil and Nat discuss Happy Accidents by Morton A Meyers. In this book we look at the serendipity of so many scientific discoveries and the author suggests how we can foster these chance happenings to make giant leaps in research and discovery. “Penetrating intelligence, keen perception, and sound judgment — is essential to serendipity. The men and women who seized on lucky accidents that happened to them were anything but mindless. In fact, their minds typically had special qualities that enabled them to break out of established paradigms.” We cover a wide range of topics, including: Penicillin, Petri Dishes and Moldy Mary The impact of freedom on research Tangents on Private Schools, Social Media & Conspiracy Theories Modern Diets, Drugs and Toxins turned into cures Self experimentation, Ostracism and changing Medical opinions A possible special kayaking retreat for supporters And much more. Please enjoy, and be sure to grab a copy of Happy Accidents by Morton A Meyers! You can also listen on Google Play Music, SoundCloud, YouTube, or in any other podcasting app by searching “Made You Think.” If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to check out our episodes on Skin in the Game by Nassim Taleb where he shares other stories of scientists trying treatments firsthand, and Merchants of Doubt by Naomi Oreskes and Erik Cornway for more on controversial science, academia and Pharma companies.

An exploration of scientific discovery and progress and how consistently it is influenced and driven by the role of Serendipity. A case opposite or complementary to the Scientific Method. Serendipity defined as a combination of accidents and sagacity. 05:05 – Not all discoveries are immediately realized or understood. Winston Churchill – “Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened”. Penicillin and LSD examples. The dangers of being dogmatic without leaving room for the unexpected. 06:53 – Central theme of the book–How do you foster that serendipitous mindset? Nassim Taleb says that serendipity comes from chance encounters, like a cocktail party. The potential gain from a chance encounter is worth the effort of stepping outside your comfort zone. 07:42 – Trying to harness serendipity for your own benefit. Serendipity through disorder and randomness. Investigating how scientists can foster serendipity in their lab work and how academia and education and research grants, peer review could change because of that. 09:41 – Normal vs revolutionary science, Meyers is dismissive of puzzle solving. Normal science is making incremental improvements on existing knowledge, whereas serendipity fosters revolutionary discoveries as they come from a change in the ordinary methods. 10:51 – Two stages to serendipity. You need something unusual to happen and you have to recognize it to take advantage of it too. 11:21 – Innovation departments rarely come up with paradigm-shifting ideas and products. Need a certain mindset to make the most of these opportunities. Reason, intuition and imagination. Too much experience in a field can cloud your judgement on new ideas. 13:51 – The book is primarily about serendipity in medicine and science but it can be applied to most fields. Breaking out of the norm and finding inspiration for innovation in other industries. Looking at magazines to apply to blog copywriting. 15:33 – "Analogical thinking has certainly been a cornerstone of science." Another theme in the book is looking for one thing but ending up on a totally different path. All of the people making discoveries seemed to have a level of independence in their research to follow a new path when it interests them. The narrative fallacy involved in serendipitous scientific discovery or startups growth. 17:40 – Alexander Fleming and discovery of Penicillin as anti-bacterial.  Fleming said that if he was working on a research team at the time it would have been ignored as it wasn’t what he was working on. Being free allows you to pursue these anomalies. 19:04 – Darwin and the finches in the Galapagos. Being told to go and study something brings different results than if you’re free to follow your own curiosity. The constraints of research impose harmful limits on discoveries. 19:54 – Structure of the book is Introduction of the premise, 30+ chapters of examples and the conclusion. Myers suggests at the end of the book that the structure for scientific research and funding is counter to the ability for these serendipitous events to happen. 20:50 – More on Fleming and Penicillin. Odds of it happening were astronomically low. He was away for two weeks and on returning and viewing his petri dishes on his desk discovered an anti-bacterial zone around the mold. It wasn’t until 7 years later that another researcher realized what he had found. 23:09 – For Fleming it took a number of environmental factors that allowed Penicillin to be discovered at all: heat, location, time. Penicillin wasn’t originally pitched as a drug, originally suggested as a way to isolate bacterial colonies. Then there was the huge scale up and production process of the drug. Peoria (IL), the role of corn syrup, and the mold discovered by chance. 29:00 – Bonus Material Discussion, Aquatic Apes, Patreon, future episode ideas. 29:52 – Causes of ulcers, used to be thought of as stress and spicy food. Discovery that it is caused by bacteria in 1981. Marshall ran an experiment on himself to take the bacteria, give himself ulcers and cure himself with antibiotics. Pharmaceutical industry had a strong incentive to not prove this as the cause, current drugs of acid inhibitors were reaching sales of $6 Billion dollars in 1992. 35:04 – Pharma companies lobbying to decrease acceptable cholesterol ranges to induce more people into treatments. Changing opinions of statins within last 10 years. Effects of low cholesterol on longevity, links to all-cause mortality. Reducing cholesterol and precursors to creating testosterone in diet has lead to a reduction in testosterone and erectile dysfunction requiring a need for Viagra. 39:59 – What are we currently doing in society now that we will look back on and question in the future? Possible future problems associated with over consumption of social media. Mental and physical health complaints are unknown. 41:53 – Pull away in society from open sharing, moving towards private communities. Effectiveness of diets, feeling good vs having long term health benefits. Benefits of adopting a new diet may be equal to reducing other harmful choices – like stopping drinking for a month. The changing conventions of meal-times, quality of dog food, college debt. 47:12 – Tangent. Education and the need to change the K through 12 program instead of starting with College reform. The benefits of private vs public school. Mixing with different socioeconomic backgrounds, expense of private school. Both build very different sets of social and academic skills. Bay Area dystopia, where citizens pay lots in taxes that go into public schools, but parents end choosing private ones. 55:53 – Chemical weapons, World Wars and the changing use of toxins into cures. Bombing a ship leading to the first chemo treatments for cancer. North Korea and the development of nuclear tech (more info in the Bonus material). Google health trends being able to predict health outbreaks based on search volume. Sex hormones and noticing the change of tumors in animals after castration. 01:07:55 – Consequences of controversial testing on wartime prisoners that have given us useful data. Study of African-American men with syphilis, they were told they were having free medical treatment but they were mislead and were being studied for the untreated effects of syphilis over 40 years. Possibilities of current testing on prisoners or other conspiracies. 01:11:52 – History of Thalidomide being marketed as a sedative and pain management. Widely distributed before it was realized it had the side effect of severely inhibiting fetal development. U.S avoided this because the FDA already setup due to a drug being administered alongside Diethyl Glycol which was toxic, killing over 100 children. Testing required before products could be marketed. Thalidomide now used as an anti-cancer drug as it inhibits new blood vessel growth. 01:15:05 – Acne treatments and the imbalanced side-effects on fertility. Use of cleanser on the face strips natural oils. Use of antibiotics for acne which causes destruction of the microbiome. Latex gloves that may transmit more bacteria than your hands. Effects of steroids and keto on curing eczema. Nat not using shampoo even after a Spartan race. Body naturally cleansing. 01:21:06 – Tangents, aquatic apes, blockchain, negative reviews. 01:21:59 – Heart chapter and testing of catheterization. Self-experimentation and the need to prove theories. Ostracism and dangerous procedures. 01:24:44 – Viagra, originally for treating angina, it was found that this medication increased blood flow and became a cure for impotence – renamed to erectile dysfunction. Self-experimentation on erectile dysfunction. "The annual scientific meeting of the American Urologic Association is usually a pretty staid Affair but one meeting has entered the annals of folklore in the early 1980s. During the course of his lecture on the effectiveness of injecting substances directly into the penis to increase blood flow one urologist announced that he had performed such injections on himself only an hour earlier. Stepping from behind the lectern and he dropped his trousers and proudly demonstrated to the audience his own erect manhood. Urologists who attended this meeting still shake their heads at the memory." 01:28:00 – The power of names and the words used, like pro-life and pro-choice. How you phrase something changes the impact. Pharmaceuticals changing the names of conditions to promote sales of new drugs. Sales of Viagra were $780 Million in the first 9 months of 1998. 01:30:02 – 1% of women take Viagra to increase arousal and sensation and orgasm strength. Netflix’s biggest competitor is sleep, Viagra’s biggest competitor is death. 01:31:48 – Cholesterol testing on rabbits. Cholesterol data seems outdated with the book being 11 years old. Comparison of Chinese soldiers and lifestyle and diet. Lack of nutrition education in Doctors, mostly educated by pharmaceutical companies. People seem to want to take a pill rather than change their lifestyle or diet and doctors have lack of trust in the patient that they will try to improve their own situation. 01:38:07 – Psychiatric stuff. Hoffman discovering LSD by accidentally pouring it over his skin. LSD microdosing experiences. 01:42:40 – Tangents on kayaking, LSD microdosing and the Made You Think – Patreon $1000 Tier. 01:43:06 – Conclusion. Modern sciences are antithetical to the process of serendipity and how our institutions penalize our ability to take advantage of it. Government contracts and grants impose constraints. If you're getting money to research a specific topic you will be disincentivized from exploring things that deviates. If you're a free agent, then you can run down those rabbit holes. 01:44:31 – Peer reviews. Most businesses are judged by their customers but academia is judged solely by their peers. Ostracism as a consequence of investigating fringe theories. Direct to consumer advertising for drugs. Diseases and disorders that seems to be created and renamed just to increase drug sales. Long terms effects of drugs. 01:52:19 – On Patreon you get all kinds of goodies. Bonus materials, detailed notes for each episode and book highlights. You get a space to discuss the show with both of us. You can also join for our monthly live Hangouts. If you join the $1000 a month tier you can join us for a major excursion – Made You Trip! 01:54:57 – Patreon is a great way to support the show and let us keep doing this ad free.

In this show Dr. Lori Brotto, Executive Director of the Women's Health Research Institute of British Columbia and the University of British Columbia's Sexual Health Laboratory discusses the problems of sexual arousal and sexual desire reported by 10 to 40% of women. She clarifies the misconceptions and confusion about female sexual desire, the differences between men and women and why the “Female Viagra Drug” fizzled. She draws upon the psychological interventions she has research for the management of sexual arousal, desire and genital pain and makes it clear that for women the sexual response involves the mind being in sync with the body. She draws upon the strategies in her upcoming self-help book “ Better Sex Through Mindfulness” to discuss the powerful results found when women are guided to use mindfulness to attend to and identify triggers, context and the kind of stimuli that elicits sexual desire and arousal for them.
