In this episode, my guest is Dr. Rena Malik, M.D., a board-certified urologist and pelvic surgeon, expert in male and female pelvic medicine, and public health educator. We discuss the major causes and treatments of sexual and urologic dysfunction, including how to restore, maintain and enhance pelvic floor function and proper neural and vascular (blood) supply to the genitals. We also address what controls and can enhance desire and arousal, how to assess and treat erectile dysfunction, and challenges with vaginal lubrication and orgasm. Additionally, we cover vaginal and penile health, including preventing urinary tract infections (UTIs) and identifying common prescription drugs that can cause sexual dysfunction in males and females. This episode explores a range of topics: oral contraception, masturbation, pornography, prostate health and male and female hormone health.

Note: This episode covers topics related to sexual and reproductive health. Some content might not be suitable for all audiences and ages.
