As we all await research trials for a world-wide vaccine for the SARS2/COVID-19 Pandemic, two prominent female physicians present their ground breaking study to elevate pain for women during sex.
Dr. Andrea Nackley, Duke University School of Medicine & Dr. Erin Carey, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill discuss the power of research and experience of women in this pandemic as well as with healthcare in general. Both detail their work in chronic pain relief and their current research with women who experience Vestibulodynia (pain sensation in the vaginal regions).
They discuss how women are treated differently than men and the fact that many studies for medicines prescribed for women are "normed" on male responses.
Dr. Nackley discusses the goals and objectives of their research to include better understanding of the experience of vestibulodynia and improved treatments to elevate pain. Dr. Carey describes how their work may help couples to discuss this taboo topic and enhance their relationships.
