Sexual Health
Learn about sexual health
Sexual health can be hard to talk about at any age. But knowing the types of common problems that can occur and what you can do to treat them might make talking about this sensitive subject a little easier.
Women's sexual health issues are often related to menstrual cycles, sex, infection, birth control methods, aging, medicines, or changes after pregnancy.
