Listen Now

It’s time to get “down and dirty,” or, in other words, have an honest discussion about sex! We’ve brought Dr. Holly Miller (board-certified OB-GYN) back to the show for a real conversation about sexual and reproductive health. Darlene and Julie ask questions you might secretly be wondering and are perhaps even afraid to ask your GYN.

So, ladies, we’re “going there,” with questions like:
-How do you know if you’re ready to have sex with your partner?
-How do you talk about his (or your) STI?
-Should intercourse have pain? What do you do if it does?
-How do different contraceptives work?
-Do you have low libido? What’s normal?
-What long-term side effects could you experience after an abortion?

We realize that sex is an integral and satisfying part of a healthy relationship, and we believe this episode will answer questions you may not even know you have. Listen in and share it with your friends (they may not say it, but they are asking the same questions, too) you’ll all be glad you did!
