40 million women in the US suffer from sexual disorders, that is 35%-40% of our female population. This most common of female sexual dysfunctions involves a lack of sexual interest and willingness to be sexual. 

Dr. Michael Krychman speaks about sexual health and libido. He is the Executive Director of the Southern California Center for Sexual Health and Survivorship Medicine, and he is the former Co-Director of the Sexual Medicine and Rehabilitation Program at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer. You will find him to be extremely knowledgeable, and incredibly compassionate in this conversation. I learned so much and am excited to share it with you. 

In this episode, Dr Krychman covers:

• The difference between sexual dysfunction and sexual problem
• What a normal sex life really means
• Types of sexual dysfunction and solutions
• When it is time to seek professional help
