And so we are seeing sexual side effects from these medications.

Again, that is not to say don't take them.

It is to say that these are just like slow gastric emptying or nausea or side effects.

Sexual side effects may be happening.

And if

I have patients who couldn't care less about sexual side effects.

And I have patients who their identity is their sexual health.

And those are different patients.

And we should treat them differently.

I have patients who will literally travel to the ends of the earth to figure out what is going on with their sexual health because it's so important to them.

And I'm thrilled that they exist in this world.

And they're different patients.

And we are.

So there are medications.

So if we all agree now, we just had a huge conversation that medications can cause sexual side effects.

So let's use logic, friends.

Can medications boost sexual function?

Of course they can.

And of course, we actually do have options.

And here's a place where I have options more for my women patients than I do for my male patients.
