Dealing with itchiness, discomfort, or unsure how to properly care for your vulva? Wondering if what you’re experiencing is normal? 

In this episode of The Vulvalution, we’re joined by Dr. Melanie Altas, Director of the BC Centre for Vulvar Health, for an honest, myth-busting conversation about vulvovaginal health. From everyday care and common misconceptions to chronic conditions, pain, and stigma, we unpack what’s normal, what’s not. This honest conversation offers practical guidance and reassurance for anyone who’s ever had questions about their vulva or vagina but didn’t know where to turn.
