In this special episode recorded live from the Menopause Society meeting in Chicago, Dr. Sameena Rahman and co-host Dr. Heather Quaile interview two pioneers in female sexual medicine, Dr. Irwin Goldstein and his wife Sue Goldstein. 

The Goldsteins, known as the “real Masters of Sex,” share their incredible journey in advancing women’s sexual health, from founding the International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health (ISSWSH) to groundbreaking treatments for female sexual dysfunction. 

Dr. Irwin Goldstein discusses the evolution of orgasm disorder treatment, the importance of the spine in genital pelvic pain, and cutting-edge therapies like shockwave therapy.
