with Dr. Rachel Rubin & Dr. Lauren Trosch (In Partnership with Hope Connections)
Your urinary and sexual health are topics that aren’t often talked about, but can have a huge impact on your health and quality of life. Difficulties with sexual function, painful intercourse, urinary incontinence, and urinary tract infections are quite common and do not need to be endured in silence. Dr. Rachel Rubin, board-certified urologist and sexual medicine specialist with fellowship training in sexual medicine and Dr. Lauren Trosch, pelvic health physical therapist and orthopedic clinical specialist, will discuss common genitourinary problems and ways to find help. This talk is open for people of all genders who experience urinary or sexual health concerns.
