  • サマリー

  • Empowering women (and the partners who love them) to live their best mid lives. Combining the power of mind-work, body-science and relationships, I joyously smash the societal barriers that are keeping us from living our best intimate lives. Whether you are young or past menopause, single or in a long-term relationship, it is never too late or too early to realize YOU ARE NOT BROKEN. With humor, candor and ease, I break down the stories that we have been told about being sexual beings, to help us play, and normalize our intimacy and health. Nothing in this podcast is personal medical advice, of course.

  • 288. Dr. Jim Simon
    2024/10/27
    Dr. Jim Simon discusses the importance of hormones in sexual health and the intersectionality of ISSWSH and NAMS. He emphasizes the need for all healthcare providers to be comfortable talking about sex and hormones. Dr. Simon also talks about his paper on menopausal hormone therapy and the misconceptions surrounding hormone therapy and breast cancer. He highlights the importance of individualized risk assessment and informed decision-making. The conversation also covers the future of hormones, the role of lifestyle factors in healthy aging, and the development of new drugs for hot flashes, including Fezolinetant and a new one coming on the market in one year. In this conversation, Dr. James Simon and Dr. Kelly Casperson discuss various topics related to women's health, including the challenges of getting a female dosed testosterone approved by the FDA, of treating sexual dysfunction, the underutilization of certain medications, and the importance of advocating for better access to care. They also touch on the off-label use of medications and the need for comprehensive education on hormones and sex medicine. Additionally, they explore the role of hormones in sleep issues and the impact of anxiety on menopausal women. Takeaways Healthcare providers should be comfortable discussing sex and hormones with their patients. Individualized risk assessment is crucial when considering hormone therapy. Lifestyle factors, such as diet and exercise, play a significant role in healthy aging. New drugs for hot flashes offer more options for women who cannot or should not use hormones. Advocacy is crucial in improving access to care for women's sexual health issues. Certain medications for sexual dysfunction are underutilized and may be more cost-effective options. Off-label use of medications can be beneficial and should be considered when appropriate. Comprehensive education on hormones and sex medicine is needed for healthcare professionals. Sleep issues in menopausal women should be addressed beyond hot flashes and night sweats. Anxiety is a common concern for menopausal women and should be treated alongside other symptoms.
