QUOTES
“It is never too late to address these issues. We love the idea of wellness and prevention since this is such a big moment in your life. Bringing a new life into the world can be so much for your body. And that is not acknowledged enough.”
Dr. Luly Diez
“We want to help support women throughout their pregnancy and post-partum journey so they can have good experiences. Pregnancy should not be a painful situation.”
Dr. Luly Diez
“We are not mental health counselors, but we do really show up fully for these women and their rehab.”
Dr. Kat
Why pain exists during sex with menopausal women; “Aging has a lot to do with hormone shifts. Lack of estrogen can cause the vaginal tissue to atrophy and dry up. So it is two things- the tissue is not as plump and the area is not well lubricated. This is something we treat.”
Dr. Kat
“Just because you are cleared to have sex or exercise 6 weeks after giving birth doesn’t mean you need to feel ready to do those things. It just means your body has healed and won’t be dangerous for you.”
Dr. Luly Diez
