Can you do an episode about how to get your libido back up? I've been struggling with a very low libido for months now and it's taking a toll on my relationship … (and no, I do not take the pills or any other protection involving hormones)
weird fact, the first time i heard of kegels was from a cosmo magazine my older sister had… I used to them involuntarily before I knew what I was doing lol now I consciously do them when I'm bored or whenever lol
This is completely non-related to the sex smarts series but I would love to see you do a video on the model minority myth Steph!! I’m tired of ppl thinking us asians are the “model minority” and experience no racism whatsoever. If it interests ya, I’d love to see you do a video to help educate ppl about it!! If not, that’s cool too
I am a nurse and I know something about 'kegels' as I had my fair amount of problems regarding my pelvic floor. Kegels should actually not be done unless a specialist that actually has knowledge evaluates your pelvic floor. I don't mean to sound rude but when you talk about contracting muscles of the pelvic floor, you talk about them as if it was like.. just one whole muscle. The problem with Kegels is that you are likely to have hypertone & hypotone in different muscles of your pelvic floor – when you do Kegels you will probably know how to contract the muscles that already show hypertone (while instead you should learn how to relax them) and the muscles that show hypotone you will probably not 'use' / contract them because your body doesn't know how to activate them. Now, contracting a muscle that doesn't know how to relax is, as you imagined, bad. Pretty much every one of us has problems related to the pelvic floor's muscles bc of our lifestyles (pain during penetration is a huge indicator that something could be functioning unproperly in your pelvic floor, as is pain during orgasm or feeling like something is 'contracted' when you climax, hemorroids, urinary incontinence etc) – you have good muscles when you can contract all the different ones individually (just so you have an idea, instead of telling muscles names I'll say 'areas', like: anus, entrance, midway, and deep part of the vagina, urethra, clitoris etc) and only contract the 'left' and the 'right'. So yes to healthy vaginas but Kegel's are def not the way to do it! I know you don't mean to do no harm with this video, I just wish the best for anyone with a vagina. The pelvic floor is surely a very interesting topic and knowing more about it can help loads with our sexual health! <3
Kegel exercises can also help train people who have vaginismus: involuntary pelvic floor muscle contractions when trying to insert anything into the vagina.
I absolutely love this series you created 💕
woah so interesting!! i always had the sneeze/pee problem and now i am even pregnant. definitely will look into a trainer toy

Damn those are some good benefits! I def want to buy this 🙂
I’ve always admired how comfortable you are talking about sex-related topics. Especially online! Love this series!
my personal kegel practice is: every time i hear the word "kegel", i do a kegel

Kinda hate this influencer shill vibe… but i dont know if you’re also certified in talking about this stuff. whatevs tho your makeup’s gorg
Kegels ruin your pelvic floor and cause prolapse problems later in life. Squats are the real way we strengthen those muscles.
Thanks ❤️

Get it right, get it right, get it tight.
Is there any other products to this for a lower price? 🤔
