Rivky sits down with Dr, Elissa Hellman, OBGYN to talk about misconceptions around starting a healthy sex life. We discuss the role of the kallah teacher, and how to know whether a question is medical or halachik. Plus she explains the fertility awareness method for contraception, and how a little knowledge goes a long way.

Dr. Elissa Hellman is an experienced board-certified OBGYN. She received her medical degree from NYU School of Medicine and completed her residency at Northshore University Hospital in Long Island in OBGYN. Dr. Hellman has been in clinical practice for over thirteen years in Milwaukee, WI and now lives in Israel. She is also the physician at her self-named telemedicine gynecology practice focused on the health needs of Jewish women. Throughout her career, she noticed a gap in women's health awareness and knowledge. This developed into a special interest in patient education and being a resource for the Jewish community in relation to body awareness and women's preventative health.
