We are aging with more health and vitality than ever before!  The reality is that we will also have chronic conditions that need to be addressed in our health care plan. This week we are discussing survivorship medicine and complex gynecology with Dr. Michael Krychman.   Dr. Krychman is Executive Director of the Southern California Center for Sexual Health and Survivorship Medicine and an Associate Clinical Professor at the University of California Irvine, Division of Gynecological Oncology and the Medical Director of Ann's Clinic, a high-risk program for Breast and Ovarian Cancer Survivors. Dr. Krychman explains that we need to modify medical care in the face of chronic conditions including cancer and hypertension.  Doctors need to work as a team when dispensing information as well as medication to patients.  Living longer means seeing a bigger picture for your health (lifestyle, diet and stress) and your clinical team needs to be cognizant of this and modify accordingly.  We also address complex gynecology which covers an array of conditions including gynecological cancers, endometriosis, uterine fibroids and pelvic pain.

10 percent of women have never had an orgasm. For many women, even those who have had orgasms, it's not always easy. And only about a third of women experience orgasm regularly during intercourse. Female sexuality is more complicated than male sexuality, and it involves more effort in order to climax. It also doesn't help that we live in a society where the thought of women being sexual beings is still a foreign idea for some. This thinking can cause shame, especially for women who are trying to have an orgasm through masturbation. But there should be absolutely no shame (ever!) pleasuring yourself and enjoying it.Today we are joined by PBF Medical Advisory Board members Dr. Cheryl Iglesia, Dr. Christine Vaccaro, Dr. Sheryl Kingsberg, Dr. Michael Krychman. and Dr. Kathleen Novicki to talk about the female orgasm, steps you can take if you've never achieved orgasm, and the importance of understanding your body and what makes sex pleasurable for you. Learn more and donate:  https://pattybrisbenfoundation.org/

More women than ever are reporting being self-conscious about the way their genitals look. As with many body image woes, the media seems to be a major culprit.

They will help us navigate the safety and efficacy of these methods and share advice for those struggling with self-consciousness relating to their genitals.
