  • Coffee & Vulvas - The Sex Talk

    Sex has been a taboo subject that has become something that we don't normally talk about. It isn't just about intercourse--it's also about exploring your sexual feelings and pleasures with yourself and your partner. 


    On this mini series episode of Coffee & Vulvas, Dr. Kaylee talks all things sex. She defines what sex is, talks about anal sex, orgasm, sex toys, lubrication, and understanding that sex should not be painful. If you are experiencing pain with sex, consult with a Pelvic PT--they are here to support and educate you. 


    It's time to shift the way we think about sex and start having these conversations.

  • Coffee & Vulvas - "The Pill" and Pelvic Pain

    The question is: can birth control pills cause pelvic pain?


    This week we continue with a brand new mini series episode of Coffee and Vulvas, as Dr. Kaylee addresses whether there is a relationship between oral contraceptive pills and pelvic pain. 

    She shares her personal story and experience with taking oral contraceptive and pelvic pain, briefly goes over the three types of birth control, and shares information that she has gathered from doing her research on the topic and its relationship to one another (like how hormone imbalance can affect the pelvic region's structure and function, etc.). 

    There has been evidence that contraceptive pills can be tied to pelvic pain but not always. When considering birth control pills it is important to do your research and to find and discuss these questions with a health care provider who will explain birth control options, explains the risks and side effects, and provides reassessments. As well as to reach out to and get consultation from a Pelvic PT, like Dr. Kaylee, to address any concerns. 


    It's time to shed the light on this topic.

    There is more research that needs to be done to address this.
