Women's Sexual Health in Menopause: Hormonal & Non-Hormonal Solutions ft. Dr. Simon

Send us Fan MailPerimenopause and menopause bring some of the most significant and least addressed challenges to women's sexual health — and the good news is that both hormonal and non-hormonal solutions exist that most women never hear about from their providers. In this episode, Dr. Stephanie Zwonitzer, DNP, sits down with Dr. Simon of Intim Medicine to explore the full landscape of treatment options available to women navigating the sexual health changes that come with hormonal transition. This is the clinically comprehensive conversation that every woman in perimenopause or menopause deserves to have with her doctor. Topics covered: how hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause directly affect libido, vaginal health, arousal, and sexual function, hormonal treatment options including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone therapy and how they support sexual wellness, non-hormonal solutions for low libido, vaginal dryness, and sexual dysfunction and when they are the right choice, the biological and psychological factors that intersect to affect women's sexual function during hormonal transition, innovations in women's sexual health treatment that are changing what is possible for menopausal women, communication strategies for couples navigating the intimacy challenges that come with menopause, practical tips for enhancing intimacy and connection during and after the menopausal transition, and how to advocate for comprehensive sexual health care from a provider who takes these issues seriously. Reach Dr. Simon at IntimMedicine.com or by calling 202-293-1000.Work with Dr. [email protected] with Between the Sheets:IG: @ReviveISHEmail: [email protected]#podmatchWant to be a guest on Between the Sheets: Exploring Sexual Health & Wellness?
