Hello Reader,

I recently came across a reel on social media claiming that our labia disappear during menopause.

Whoa!

This was news to me, & I've since found a few sources that confirm it is in the range of "normal" experiences.

I have long know that declining levels of estrogen decrease lubrication & make the labia & vaginal tissues much more delicate as we go through peri/menopause. In response to this, I've learned some great self-massage techniques & herbal lubricant recipes to help mitigate discomfort & tearing during our post-ovulatory years. Thanks herbalism & somatic sexology!

Bringing circulation, breath, & awareness to this part of our bodies helps keep the tissues healthy at any age.

It's vital that we form relationships with our vulvas & vaginas outside of sexual & clinical contexts to know what's "normal" for us, & to care for our bodies as they move through their many seasons.

I am so looking forward to being able to chat with Dr. Evelin about vulva & vaginal health during peri/menopause next Monday at the next FoK Buddy Session. . .

Peri/Menopause & Sexuality

A conversation with Dr. Evelin Dacker & Samantha Zipporah

Monday, March 30th at 10am PST live on Zoom, audio only

FoK Buddy Sessions are monthly audio-only Zoom calls which are free to attend for all FoK members, as well as open to public participation. They are candid, provocative, & completely unscripted conversations between myself & guest experts throughout the womb continuum. Folks who attend the calls live have the opportunity to engage in Q&A & discussion.

I would love to engage with you if you're able to attend the live call, & am delighted to share the recording with you after if you can't make it live.

If you're a FoK member or registrant who can't make it live, feel free to email me with any special Qs you'd like to have addressed during my call with Dr. Dacker.

Hit reply to this email if you have any Qs about the event or any of my offerings!

For the love of labia!

In service to our healing & liberation,
