Description: In this educational webinar episode of Please Me Podcast, Eve explores the causes, prevalence, and practical solutions for painful sex, including dyspareunia and vaginismus. Drawing from her expertise as a pelvic floor physical therapist, she breaks down how physical, hormonal, and emotional factors can all contribute to discomfort during intimacy—and what can be done to support healing, pleasure & empowered sexuality. Eve explains how conditions like vaginal dryness, infections, hormonal changes, pelvic floor dysfunction, and endometriosis can all play a role in pain during sex. She also clarifies the difference between dyspareunia and vaginismus, helping listeners better understand their symptoms and when to seek support. Beyond education, this episode offers actionable guidance—focusing on foreplay, full-body arousal, relaxation techniques, and communication with partners. Eve also highlights how certain positions and mindful body awareness can reduce discomfort and support more pleasurable, connected intimacy, while addressing the importance of clitoral stimulation in closing the orgasm gap. This episode is a supportive and practical resource for anyone looking to transform painful experiences into more informed, empowered, and pleasurable intimacy.
