Podcasts about sexual health

Feeling alone, dismissed, and broken during your perimenopause and menopause transition? Sadly, so many women do.  That's why in this episode, we're here to set the record straight. I'm sitting down with women's health and sexual health expert Dr. Kelly Casperson, and let me tell you, she pulls no punches.  We're talking the real truth about libido, hormone therapy (especially testosterone for women!), and how to finally have the right conversations with your doctor.  Dr. Casperson also busts myths around Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause and explains why so many of us feel isolated when these symptoms hit out of nowhere.  This episode is full of empowering tools and guidance to help you reclaim your health and confidence. Remember, you don't have to navigate midlife changes alone! Kelly Casperson   Dr. Kelly Casperson is a board-certified urologic surgeon and the CEO and founder of The Casperson Clinic, a practice dedicated to hormones and sex medicine. She's also a renowned public speaker, sex educator, and the host of the top-ranking podcast You Are Not Broken. Dr. Casperson empowers women to take control of their health by tackling myths about desire and normalizing conversations around healthy, fulfilling sex. Her work provides essential education on hormones and midlife women's health.  IN THIS EPISODE How to recognize when you're in perimenopause  Setting boundaries and prioritizing yourself and your health  Addressing the misconceptions and societal attitudes around perimenopause and menopause  Navigating sexual dysfunction and libido symptoms commonly experienced by women in midlife How to approach the subject of testosterone for women with your doctor during menopause  Other beneficial hormone replacement therapy options  Why testosterone is a game-changer for your energy in midlife  About Dr. Casperson's new book: The Menopause Moment QUOTES“Just because you're really good at what you do doesn't mean that's what you should keep doing. And I think that's the power of midlife– it's this amazing opportunity to wake up.”  “There are days where I'm like, oh man. But, I recalibrate. I reset. And the thing I always tell myself is that tomorrow is another day.”  “A hundred percent of women have low testosterone after a certain age… and only about 20% of men are low producers, [yet] they have 20 [testosterone] products.” RESOURCES MENTIONED

Starting in her teenage years, Kate Helen Downey's menstrual cycle was extremely painful. In her adult life, she received an endometriosis diagnosis, which can cause severe menstrual pain. Kate, host and producer of the podcast CRAMPED, sits down with us to share about her experience and encourage everyone to talk about their period pain. Kate's podcast, CRAMPED, seeks to explore more about why the medical system—and all of us—know next to nothing about period pain. Many people learn about menstruation through movies and TV, where a young girl getting her period for the first time is the primary representation of menstrual health. Rarely do we see reliable depiction of the pain that comes with menstruation. Talking openly with your friends and loved ones about the experience of menstruating can help us destigmatize periods, understand our own pain, understand other people's pain, comfort one another, and heal.Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Buy rePROs Merch: Bonfire store Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

“What I think really shines through is how the family context and the cultural context and the political context influenceboth mental and sexual health experience for Latina adolescents, particularly the role of shame and stigma and how that played a part in gaining access to healthcare or being able to talk openly about these sensitive or potentiallysensitive topics. So, we hope that the zines that they created helped to break that stigma within the community.” Jenn M. LillyThe HPP Podcast celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month AND Sexual Health Month!

The State Department's Human Rights Reports were mandated by Congress in 1974 to ensure funding did not go toward torture, involuntary detention, and suppression of fundamental freedoms. The reports collect information on human rights abuses around the world. But this year's human rights reports were created under completely rewritten instructions, featuring a huge reduction in information on human rights abuses. Amanda Klasing, National Director of Government Relations and Advocacy at Amnesty International USA, sits down to talk with us about these devastatingly slashed human rights reports. The reports provide a human rights overview for any given country for the year, and they require human rights desk officers in embassies to engage with human rights defenders within the country and document any abuses. This allows Congress to make fact-based decisions and protect asylum seekers. This year's human rights reports featured a complete rewrite of the instructions for dramatically reduced sections related to fundamental freedoms for particular populations (including women, ethnic minorities, religious minorities, and more). The reports are 1/3rd shorter than they were before. For more information, check out Well...Adjusting: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/well-adjusting/id1649386566Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Buy rePROs Merch: Bonfire store Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

How would you feel if a global sexual health congress wasn't just for academics, but a window into what really matters for your midlife body, pleasure and power?In this episode, I caught up with sexologist and pleasure coach Emma Pleasure (Emma McCann), whom I met at the World Sexual Health Congress in Brisbane, to unpack our biggest takeaways.

In our "summer of drugs" series, we're continuing with research and information on mushrooms, a natural component which can affect our receptors by lowering inhibitory proteins and increasing excitatory, which has records that date back to the Aztecs.We explore the research and break down a presentation given at the ISWSH or the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health discussing potential sexual health benefits of mushrooms.Admittedly, in our lifetime it would be surprising to see enough research-backed evidence for this substance to be able to be prescribed, but it is interesting to consider the benefits micro-dosing may have in general.We can't wait to hear what you think!

This summer, we're reflecting on the ten most common questions we hear from our relationship and sex therapy clients. We often hear folks talk about their sexuality in negative ways, comparing their sexuality, consumption of porn, and masturbation practices to that of addiction.    We self-diagnose as sex addicts, or we diagnose our partners as sex or porn addicts. And in doing so, we eliminate the opportunity for curiosity, to learn about our fantasies, our curiosities, our erotic templates, and our hopes.    In this episode, we talk with Dr. Eric Sprankle (@drsprankle on IG), author of DIY: The Wonderfully Weird History and Science of Masturbation, about what we miss when we rely on the language of "porn addiction". The historical roots of anti-masturbation and moral panics. The value of our relationships with ourselves as sexual people. Media literacy. Effective ways of managing disgust. The distinction between privacy and secrecy. Navigating rejection and other emotions when our partners choose a sexual interaction with themselves over us.

When it comes to men's health, your penis might be saying more than you think. On this episode of How to Get the Girl, we sit down with Dr. Elliot Justin — physician, innovator, and creator of the world's first smart penis ring — to talk about not erectile dysfunction, but erectile fitness.Dr. Justin shares why sexual health is more than performance — it's a vital indicator of your overall well-being. We dig into the critical need for data-driven solutions in medicine, how technology is changing the game for men's health, and why paying attention to your erections could literally save your life.He also opens up about keeping intimacy alive with his wife of decades — proving that long-term relationships don't have to mean long-term boredom in the bedroom.If you've ever wondered what your erections reveal about your health (and your love life), this is a conversation you don't want to miss.>>>Join Kristen for an in-person workshop in Los Angeles September 27th and 28th! >>>SEATS ARE LIMITED!

In this episode of the Intelligent Medicine podcast, Dr. Ronald Hoffman discusses men's health, a field that often receives less attention compared to women's health. He is joined by Neil Levin, Senior Nutrition Education Manager at Protocol for Life Balance (PFLB) and Now Foods. They explore the reluctance of men to visit doctors and how genetic and behavioral factors might contribute to men's health issues. The conversation delves into the specific challenges men face as they age, including declining testosterone levels, cardiovascular diseases, and prostate problems. Neil Levin introduces several PFLB products designed to support men's health, such as 'Virility for Men,' 'Prostate B,' and 'Raw Maca,' explaining their ingredients and benefits. They also highlight the importance of rigorous product quality control and the fight against counterfeit supplements in the industry.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), President Trump's Tax and Spend mega bill, recently passed Congress. It will strip billions of dollars from essential health programs while paying for billions of dollars in tax cuts for the rich, expand mass deportation programs, and continue to harm reproductive justice. Madeline Morcelle, Senior Attorney at the National Health Law Program, sits down to talk with us about OBBBA and how it's going to particularly impact Medicaid. Medicaid, the largest public health insurance program for people in the United States, including those of low incomes, currently provides coverage for over 71 million people. Medicaid is a critical line for people to access sexual and reproductive health care. OBBBA ushers in the most sweeping Medicaid cuts in U.S. history—specifically, $990 billion dollars in Medicaid cuts over the next decade and ending health insurance coverage for over 10 million people. Among other cuts, OBBBA imposes mandatory, nationwide work requirements on Medicaid expansion and partial expansion beneficiaries aged 19-64.For more information, check out Well...Adjusting: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/well-adjusting/id1649386566Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Buy rePROs Merch: Bonfire store Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

This episode of Perimenopause: Head to Toe features Dr. Sameena Rahman, an OB-GYN and specialist in sexual medicine and menopause. She is also the founder of the GYN and Sexual Medicine CollectiveDr. Rahman highlights that women in their mid-40s often experience confusing bodily changes. Symptoms include: Menstrual Changes: Unpredictable periods, with some becoming heavier or stopping for months. Physical & Emotional Symptoms: Intimate dryness, reduced libido, sleep issues, hot flashes, brain fog, and irritability.Systemic Issues in Women's HealthcareThe conversation addresses challenges within the medical system. A Patriarchal System: The doctors agree that the healthcare system is historically patriarchal, resulting in a lack of research and understanding of women's health. Medical Training Gap: The doctors note that medical school training often overlooks the significant emotional and cognitive effects of perimenopause, focusing instead on hot flashes and irregular periods. The "Double Whammy": They point out that because the OB-GYN field is largely female, there's an unspoken expectation to manage all aspects of women's health with limited resources, leading to provider burnout and inadequate patient care.Cultural Differences and BiasDr. Rahman, who is South Asian, discusses unique challenges for women of color. Earlier Onset: Women of color, including Black and South Asian women, often experience perimenopause and menopause earlier. This is linked to allostatic load, the cumulative "wear and tear" from chronic stress. Stigma: Cultural factors like stoicism and taboos around sex lead to a reluctance to seek medical help. Health Disparities: The episode notes higher rates of heart disease and diabetes in the South Asian population.About Dr. Rahman's Practice and BookDr. Sameena Rahman is a board-certified OB/GYN, sex-med gynecologist, menopause specialist and a clinical assistant professor of OB/GYN at the Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine. She is the founder of the Gyn & Sexual Medicine Collective, a successful concierge practice that emphasizes evidence-based medicine and an affiliate of Ms. Medicine.

Fetal personhood, in short, labels a pregnancy as a person. It is the idea that anything a person is legally entitled to, a fetus is, as well. Karen Thompson, Legal Director at Pregnancy Justice and Garin Marschall, co-founder of Patient Forward, sit down to talk with us about viability, state involvement in pregnancies, and criminalization. Fetal personhood tracks alongside viability, which is the point in a pregnancy's gestation in which the government recognizes personhood. Since Roe, and long before, viability limits became enshrined in law. Dobbs has now dropped all the guardrails. 41 states currently ban abortion at some point in pregnancy - including six states that have enshrined viability limits in their state constitutional amendments. The granting of state power over pregnant people at a certain point has profound implications for criminalization—including for behaviors during pregnancy, pregnancy outcomes, and threats to bodily autonomy and diminished rights of pregnant people. For more information, check out Well...Adjusting: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/well-adjusting/id1649386566Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Buy rePROs Merch: Bonfire store Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

Abortion clinics, their staff, and the patients seeking care often face instances of blockading, harassment, threats, and violence. This blockage of access to basic healthcare services resulted in the 1994 bipartisan passage of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. Erin Matson, Co-Founder, President, and CEO of Reproaction, sits down to talk with us about the FACE Act and how the current Trump administration is attempting to disassemble its protection. Upon his return to office, Trump pardoned 23 individuals convicted of FACE Act violations, while at the same time, the Department of Justice announced it would only in “extreme” circumstances enforce the FACE Act. Shortly thereafter, the Heritage Foundation released a white paper calling for the FACE Act's repeal. For more information, check out CRAMPED: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cramped/id1778101696Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

The Green Wave Movement began in 2018 in Argentina, focused on anti-femicide but quickly evolving into a bodily autonomy and abortion movement. Protestors took to the streets to not only change the law, but to change the culture across Latin America. Asha Dahya, head of Girl Talk HQ and creator and executive producer of the podcast Green Tide Rising and the short film Someone You Know, sits down to talk to us about this motivating movement across Latin America and what the U.S. can learn.Latin America previously hosted some of most restrictive environments worldwide for the access of abortion services. Because of Argentina's initial countrywide protests, the Argentinian government legalized abortion up to 14 weeks of pregnancy. Success in Argentina's protest spirit then spilled into other countries, including Mexico and Colombia, creating broad judicial and legislative change. For more information, check out CRAMPED: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cramped/id1778101696Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.social Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!
