Dr. Streicher’s Inside Information: Menopause, Midlife, and More S2 Ep108: Hot Topics in Menopause with Dr. Terry Gibbs
Dec 21, 2023
38:33
A recurrent theme in my podcasts is that most medical students and residents do not get training in sexual medicine and menopause, which is why most doctors are not experts. And why so many women get frustrated that finding solutions for their menopause symptoms is too often a do-it-yourself research project. But today, I am joined by someone who is passionate and dedicated to educating the doctors of tomorrow.
This episode was initially aired on Sex Med for Sex Ed, hosted by Dr. Terry Gibbs, an OB-GYN and the founder of The Ohio Sexual Health Collaborative, a multi-disciplinarian organization of sexual medicine clinicians.
• My paper on dyspareunia (link- there may be a paywall)
• Things that cause painful sex beyond GSM
• And why treating painful sex is often not treated appropriately
• Getting the most out of a doctor’s visit
• Use of CBD to help with painful sex
• Laser treatment for treatment of vaginal dryness
• Post-menopause orgasmic dysfunction
• Medical misinformation
• Why The Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) was problematic.
• Why the word “provider” is problematic and insulting
• Update on my menopause retreats
