Multidisciplinary, Compassionate Care for Women with Sexual Health Concerns
Sexual health is an important and lifelong aspect of every woman’s overall physical and psychological well-being. Nearly 50 percent of women in the U.S. will experience a sexual health concern at some point in their life, making it more common than diabetes. Yet, many women think there is no treatment and are reluctant or embarrassed to discuss their concerns with their healthcare provider. And often, when sexual health declines, so does quality of life.
