Sexual Health and Wellness

Sexual health is a vital part of overall well-being, yet it's often one of the most overlooked and least discussed aspects of women's health.  

In this episode of HERology, regular hosts Dr. Anna Barbieri and Dr. Joanne Stone sit down with Dr. Jackie Giannelli, Director of Women's Sexual Health at the Carolyn Rowan Center for Women's Health and Wellness at Mount Sinai, to explore the physical, emotional, and hormonal factors that shape sexual wellness throughout a woman's life. 

From libido and intimacy to menopause, pelvic health, and the latest treatment options, Dr. Giannelli helps separate fact from fiction and sheds light on conversations that deserve a lot more exposure. Along the way, she offers practical, evidence-based guidance to help women feel more confident, connected, and empowered in their bodies. 

Whether you're looking to rekindle a spark, improve communication with your partner, or simply get more comfortable talking about sexual health, this episode gets straight to the heart of the matter while proving that a healthy sex life is about much more than performance.  

Tune in for an open, honest discussion that's informative, enlightening, and, at times, just a little stimulating.
