I was diagnosed with Stage III vaginal cancer in 2007 and underwent treatments into 2008. When the treatments were done, I was told to have sex as often as possible. It hurt like hell!

These three articles were in my latest copy of US News & World report that seem to be talking to some of our current discussions. Please listen to the september song interview and read these articles since I think they give objective observations of our challenges. I think this supporting information is just as important as going to our therapy.

Alternatives to Big Three
Multiple doctors have discussed the link between cardiovascular disease and sexual health - notably Dr. Marcus Laux in his most recent discussion of men's sexual health. And yet, America continues to go after the immediate fix of Viagra, Cialis, or Levitra rather than the long-term sexual health solution of losing weight, exercising, quitting smoking, and taking sexual health supplements rather than quick fix pills with adverse side effects.
Vulvodynia
At the age of 51, I experienced severe pain in the vulva. I saw several doctors and no one diagnosed me. I went to a lecture at the National Institutes of Health. The 30 minute lecture was given by Maria Turner, MD, a dermatologist. It was Puzzling Pain in Private Places. In about 9 minutes I knew what I had. Then it was getting to the one doctor in Washington, DC who was the exceptional specialist, Stanley Marinoff, MD, PhD. He has since retired. There are now others who treat the condition very well.
My life was constant pain and I hardly remember what happened for 1 1/2years. I could go on for ever about that time but I won't. EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THAT THERE IS HELP.
With four other women, we started the National Vulvodynia Association. NVA.org. It provides a tremendous amount of help to women.
Common Sexual Problems
Perhaps the most common problem effecting sexual function wasn't mentioned in this article: sleep disorders. By far one of the most common disorders in medicine, it may be the consequence of another chronic illnesses, secondary to obesity or as it's own disorder. There are about 100 identified sleep disorders the most common being sleep apnea. Sleep disorders can cause fatigue, effect the production of neuro-hormones (including the sexual hormone), decrease the immune response and accelerate the progression of cardiovascular illness (apnea patients have increased risk for hypertension and stroke).
Ignoring this underlying problem will make sexual dysfunction and the other associated medical disorders very difficult to treat. The information can be gotten through simple sleep questionnaires and the formal diagnosis made in a sleep laboratory.

it makes a whole lot of sense that erectile dysfunction is a harbinger of cardiovascular disease... I just never made the connection before reading the article.
