Summary: You may be shocked to find out that up to 20% of women have had sexual pain during their lives. That’s higher than the percentage of adults with asthma, cancer, or heart disease. Today, we’ll discuss a subject that’s considered “untouchable” and “taboo” by patients and doctors alike. We’ll break that silence by learning about the causes and treatments for sexual pain. Our first guest, Jessica shares for the first time in public, how she’s endured 5 years of misdiagnosed vulvar pain resulting in a lack of sexual intimacy. We’re then joined by Dr. Deborah Coady, author of, “Healing Painful Sex” and one of the few gynecologists specializing in the treatment of sexual pain.
