While the majority of our content related to women’s bodies has been focused on all the areas below the navel, today’s content is all about the “ladies." Breasts, while they have the functional use of producing breast milk, are also another sensual organ.

During this episode, we break down the anatomy of breasts and why each person's breast feels uniquely different. With deep complexity of nerve innervations, muscular involvement, and much more, the breasts play a major impact on feeding another generation but can also play a huge part in our sexual health.

Research shows that involvement of the breasts is linked to a heightened sexual experience and arousal. At the same time, individuals that have had breast surgeries, or those that have had mastectomies have reported decreased sexual satisfaction. And we also share research acknowledging those who have suffered from breast cancer and the complexities that come with those diagnoses and treatment decisions.

Also, with the very popular boob job or breast augmentation, we’ll break down what the research says about sex after this surgery and how someone's sexual experience may be impacted.

We hope you enjoy today’s content and learning more about our “lovely little lumps,” as the Black Eyed Peas would say.

As we mention at the beginning of the podcast, we are going to be opening our FIRST EVER Q&A forum in anticipation of celebrating one year of the podcast! 🎉

The link below can take listeners to a website to anonymously post questions which we will answer with our one year celebration episode in April. There are no questions off-limits. We will plan to keep this link open until March.

Listeners will then be prompted to copy and paste a separate link to enter their email for a giveaway basket. This will be shipped to your personal address and include a variety of Maddie and Larisa’s favorite sexual health goodies. ❤️

Today's episode covers Maddie's absolutely favorite topic in women's health: Menopause. As women, we spend SO MUCH of our life in menopause. It's our goal to help women not look at menopause as something they have to "suffer through."

Maddie will help break down the hormonal and physiologic changes that occur both before and during menopause. She helps to explain why certain individuals' symptoms may be more severe than others as well.

We also review different evidence-based treatment options (both that require medication and that don't) and we cover how our sex life is still a critical component to our overall health and helping solve this solution in menopause is closely related to our plummeting hormones.

We can't wait for you to listen to one of our favorite topics as we begin with our first episode of 2025! Cheers!

Part 2 is here! 🎉

We've got a special guest episode for you this week. We are finishing our conversation about all things MALE sexual health with Nate Bryant, a nurse practitioner that specializes in male sexual health and currently works in a urology office.

Our conversation includes how women can support their male partners that may be experiencing sexual dysfunctions, better understanding the male perspective and their experiences versus our own. Nate discusses what it can feel like to be "less of a man" and also how he has seen partners be supportive and how this care and concern for your partner can improve both people's sex lives when they're both invested.

Nate discusses different diagnoses as well as treatment options, which (spoiler) there are SO MANY MORE OPTIONS FOR MEN! While we didn't necessarily find this surprising, we found it interesting how much research and treatment options are available for men.

We found this topic so interesting and we hope you find it as engaging as we did. We've even decided to break this episode into two parts because the information was SO rich and SO informative!
