#176 - Let’s Talk About Sex in Midlife — Fast, Easy Fixes Your Doctor Never Mentioned With Dr. Maria Sophocles
Dryness, Low Desire, Awkward Silence? Let’s Fix Midlife Sex. What if we stopped whispering about midlife sexual health and started talking about it like the real, fixable, medical issue that it is?
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Maria Sophocles—internationally recognized OB/GYN, menopause expert, TEDx speaker, and founder of Women’s Healthcare of Princeton—to talk about the truth behind midlife vaginal changes, why libido shifts aren’t your fault, and how hormone therapy and non-hormonal treatments can actually help you feel like yourself again (yes, especially down there).
We cover:
This episode packs science, myth-busting, and an invitation to reclaim your body, your pleasure, and your voice in midlife.
No shame. No awkward metaphors. Just real information every woman deserves to know.
