Better Blood Flow, Better Sex: The Vascular Connection to Sexual Longevity | Sexuality Education

Sexuality and sexual health are closely connected to your cardiovascular health, and changes in sexual function may be an important signal from your body. In this solo episode of Please Me! Podcast, Eve Hall explores the connection between blood flow, vascular health, sexual function, erectile dysfunction, vaginal dryness, sensitivity, arousal, orgasm, and sexual longevity.

Healthy circulation plays an important role in genital tissue health and sexual function. Eve explains why changes in erections, vaginal sensitivity, lubrication, or arousal shouldn't automatically be dismissed as “just getting older.” She also explores lifestyle strategies and at-home tools that may help support healthy blood flow, sexual wellness, and sexual function as you age.
