Dyspareunia Detectives: Episode 64

hello again!

I'm still a bit croaky but nevertheless, I persisted!

In this week's episode, I want to look at how we can best help women with dyspareunia (and maybe throw a bit of evidence based myth busting into the mix!)

In this episode I talk about the different types of sexual pain, the drivers and how we can best come up with clinically reasonable treatment planning, that includes pelvic rehab at the centre of a multi-modal approach.

The main focus is on finding the drivers - is it superficial or deep? Is it primary or secondary? Is there a specific diagnosis? Is there always a bio cause (are we including the psychosocial? the nociplastic?)

Are we comfortable having the discussions? I think yes, if we know what questions to ask AND what to do with the answers

I think the key to good outcomes is to believe the story, take a great history, create a safe space to discuss these issue and having a deep and wide biopsychosocial treatment toolbox

Let me know if you'd like a Part 2 on treatment strategies! Or in the meantime, if you'd like to learn more, my new course 'Female Sexual Health, Contraception & Fertility - considerations for pelvic rehab'. It's still on pre-sale pricing until the final module is released next weekend! You can find the details on my website or in the bio of my Instagram account @michellelyons_muliebrity

Until next time! Onwards & Upwards, Mx
