Why Does Sex Hurt by J. Eisenbrown Pdf

Problems in the bedroom are not limited to erectile dysfunction in men. From all the ads on TV for erectile dysfunction medications, you would think that every man has this issue and that this it is the only problem between the sheets. You never hear or see any information about women and the sexual problems that we have. It is a shame. Women experience sexual problems with the same frequency as men, but they rarely get treated. 44 percent of women in this country will experience some degree of sexual dysfunction in their lifetime! That is almost half. Low desire is the most common one, but PAIN with intercourse is the most distressful. Approximately 20 percent of women will experience painful sex and it often is a chronic problem. It can destroy a relationship and do untold damage to a woman's self-esteem. It can dramatically increase the risk of depression, also. Many believe that depression leads to sexual dysfunction, but the converse is also true. Women who have pain with intercourse are two-and-a-half times as likely to be depressed than the general population, and women who are unable to reach orgasm are over five times as likely to be depressed. Women experiencing pain during sex often feel alone. They don't know who to talk to or where to get help, and they often are misunderstood by their partners. Some women end up believing it is their fault and are accused of it being "all in their heads." "Just relax; you're too tense." "Have a glass of wine" and "it will be ok." How many of you have been told things like this? Far too many, I suspect. Well, ladies, you are not alone and this is not in your heads. Pain with intercourse is very real and there are numerous causes that, once properly identified, CAN BE TREATED. 97 percent of women with pain during intercourse have an identifiable cause. Unfortunately, most women will not get the help they are looking for. Ironically, your doctor will not tell you the three most common causes of painful intercourse. Why? Because they don't know about it! The problem is poorly understood. To add insult to injury, the causes of pain with intercourse go largely untreated, or worse, mistreated. Why is this? Well, first of all, let's be honest. Female sexual issues as a whole are not taken very seriously in our society and have largely been ignored by the medical community. Here is a fact that reflects this. There are 26 FDA-approved drugs for the treatment of male sexual dysfunction and not one for women! That's Right, Not One! The FDA does not believe that female sexual dysfunctions are REAL medical conditions. I personally find that appalling, but I am hopeful that this will change. It does not help that the study of female sexual dysfunction (which includes painful intercourse) is relatively new. Gynecologists and urologists, the two specialties that deal with the male and female sexual organs, get very little, if any, training on female sexual dysfunction (FSD). I am boarded in both general urology and female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery (FPM-RS), but the training I have done in female sexual health I sought out separately. Organizations such as the AUA (American Urologic Association) and ISSWSH (The Society for The Study of Female Sexual Health) offer several post graduate courses in the subject. Fortunately, there are a growing number of physicians who dedicate their lives to the study and treatment of women with sexual dysfunction. If you live in a metropolitan area, you may have a dedicated sexual medical clinic in your area. If it is necessary, I can help you find a physician in your area that is trained in Female Sexual Dysfunction. In this book, I will cover in great detail the anatomy and the embryology of the female pelvis. From there I will guide you through the conditions that affect each part of the anatomy. You Will learn: - the three most common causes of painful intercourse -What causes the problem -I will teach you how to examine yourself

EndoMEtriosis by Tamer Seckin, MD Pdf

From the award-winning Dr. Tamer Seckin comes a book written for all of the Endo Warriors out there, from the thirteen-year-old girl who is being told that her pain is “part of becoming a women,” to the woman who has been misdiagnosed for decades—and needs to know she is not alone. Every girl has the right to be pain-free. To live the life they want to live. The journey toward new and happy lives for young women begins now! Endometriosis is a physically and mentally debilitating disease that has tortured women for centuries. It currently affects 176 million of childbearing age worldwide, including one in ten in the U.S. Despite those startling statistics, this horrific and incurable ailment is still relatively unknown to the general population and medical professionals alike. Symptoms of heavy periods and excruciating pain most often begin in middle school or high school, yet doctors take an average of twelve years to diagnose it in a patient. As a result, these undiagnosed and misdiagnosed women suffer into at least their mid-twenties or early thirties, repeatedly told that the pain is in their minds, that it’s simply part of becoming a woman, or that it’s caused by some other disease or condition. That nonsense must stop, and it must stop now! This book will explain what endo is in terms that adolescents can understand, along with potential remedies, treatments to avoid, and how to manage the psychological and social effects of the disease. It will also include riveting stories from women in their teens and mid-twenties, and from those closest to them such as mothers, fathers, teachers, and coaches. One of the most terrifying aspects of having endo is feeling like nobody believes the pain is real or severe, which can cause a woman to feel scared, isolated, and depressed. This book will fully arm her with the truth and knowledge about the disease so that she can overcome her fears and confidently advocate for herself. If her cry for help has been dismissed by anyone, she will be able to educate them so that they can empathize with her and fully support her in her quest for healing.

Beyond the Pill by Jolene Brighten Pdf

Out of the 100 million women—almost 11 million in the United States alone—who are on the pill, roughly 60 percent take it for non-contraceptive reasons like painful periods, endometriosis, PCOS, and acne. While the birth control pill is widely prescribed as a quick-fix solution to a variety of women’s health conditions, taking it can also result in other more serious and dangerous health consequences. Did you know that women on the pill are more likely to be prescribed an antidepressant? That they are at significantly increased risk for autoimmune disease, heart attack, thyroid and adrenal disorders, and even breast and cervical cancer? That the pill can even cause vaginal dryness, unexplained hair loss, flagging libido, extreme fatigue, and chronic infection. As if women didn’t have enough to worry about, that little pill we’re taking to manage our symptoms is only making things worse. Jolene Brighten, ND, author of the groundbreaking new book BEYOND THE PILL, specializes in treating women’s hormone imbalances caused by the pill and shares her proven 30-day program designed to reverse the myriad of symptoms women experience every day—whether you choose to stay on the pill or not. The first book of its kind to target the birth control pill and the scientifically-proven symptoms associated with taking it, BEYOND THE PILL is an actionable plan for taking control, and will help readers: • Locate the root cause of their hormonal issues, like estrogen dominance, low testosterone, and low progesterone • Discover a pain-free, manageable period free of cramps, acne, stress, or PMS without the harmful side effects that come with the pill • Detox the liver, support the adrenals and thyroid, heal the gut, reverse metabolic mayhem, boost fertility, and enhance mood • Transition into a nutrition and supplement program, with more than 30 hormone-balancing recipes Featuring simple diet and lifestyle interventions, BEYOND THE PILL is the first step to reversing the risky side effects of the pill, finally finding hormonal health, and getting your badass self back.

Pain Management and the Opioid Epidemic by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine,Health and Medicine Division,Board on Health Sciences Policy,Committee on Pain Management and Regulatory Strategies to Address Prescription Opioid Abuse Pdf

Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.
