Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Neuroscience of Orgasm with Dr. Barry Komisaruk
Q: So Barry, when you talk about orgasmic difficulties, this is assuming that these difficulties are at the level of the brain, right?
Yes, after ruling out physical issues in the genitals, pelvis, spine, and brain, there's a possibility that the problem lies in brain processing; the model emphasizes excitation and inhibition balance, and pharmacological strategies may help some patients by adjusting this balance.
The New Rules of Women's Health with Meghan Rabbitt
Q: How can women reclaim agency over their bodies without rejecting their values?
The hosts discuss building safe spaces for conversation, listening to intuition, naming experiences of discrimination, and seeking knowledgeable clinicians who will listen and co-create a plan, thereby reclaiming autonomy within their values.
Vulvar Health & Why Sex Shouldn't Be Painful with Noa Fleischacker
Q: Why is it important to reframe sexual health education in medical training?
The guests argue that OB-GYN residencies often do not cover vulvovaginal and pelvic pain, leading to misdiagnoses and insufficient care; they advocate for mandatory rotations with pelvic floor therapists and sexual medicine specialists to improve diagnosis and treatment.
Vulvar Health & Why Sex Shouldn't Be Painful with Noa Fleischacker
Q: What sparked Noa's decision to start Tight Lipped?
Noa describes her personal journey with vulvar pelvic pain, the failure of a single gynecologist visit, and how the lack of adequate care and understanding led her to found Tight Lipped to document experiences and advocate for better care.
How We Celebrate Eid
Q: Tell me, Raf, what's your earliest Eid memory growing up? What do you miss?
Her earliest memory involves Eid money from family, a moment of mix of joy and a small dash of remorse when sharing or giving, and a strong sense of family traditions rooted in Pakistani culture.
