About this episode
This episode is from an interview I did with Dr. Shauna Watts while in Austraila for her podcast, "All About You With Dr. Shauna Watts" This conversation delves into the complexities of menopause, hormone therapy, and the societal perceptions surrounding them. We discuss the misconceptions about menopause, the evolutionary perspective, and the naturalistic fallacy that often leads women to avoid hormone replacement therapy. We also explore the stigma surrounding men's health issues, particularly testosterone treatment, and the importance of education in making informed choices about hormone therapy. Additionally, the discussion touches on interstitial cystitis, bladder cancer risk factors, and the benefits of rucking for women's health. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the complexities of women's sexual health, focusing on libido, the impact of menopause, and the societal pressures surrounding body image and sexual desire. We discuss the importance of education and resources for understanding sexual health, as well as the challenges faced by women in navigating their sexual experiences. The conversation emphasizes the need for open dialogue about sexual health and the normalization of women's experiences. https://www.allaboutyoupod.com/ Sedona in October - only two slots left: https://www.ascendretreats.com/menopause-and-sexual-health-2025 Order my book "You Are Not Broken: Stop "Should-ing" All Over You Sex Life" and "Menopause Moment: Science, Hormones and Mindset for Optimal Longevity" Listen to my Tedx Talk: Why we need adult sex ed Take my Adult Sex Ed Master Class: My Website Interested in my sexual health and hormone clinic?
