Sign up for my sex education class starting September 21st! www.kellycaspersonmd.com First, we need to hear the importance of erections from the male perspective. Okay, now that we did that, what should we do when couples stop having sex after erectile dysfunction.  In this episode we will specifically talk about prostate cancer as an example. We learn why erections can falter after treatment for cancer.   We learn how relationships change. We learn that the embarrassment in talking about this actually hurts couples because they can't think of what to do after their sex life has changed. Communication is key! But we have to start by acknowledging that this is a really really hard topic for couples to talk about. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kj-casperson/message Learn more about your ad choices.

The MASTER CLASS is starting soon!  From boring to mind blowing!  Sex education and coaching! www.kellycaspersonmd.com Thoughts about sex Let’s hear about a “typical” woman who comes to me for sexual issues. KY Jelly is the Betty Crocker of lube – it is everywhere, but not always great. Figure out what your sexual goals are. Your thoughts about sex influence your sexual satisfaction. Your thoughts are not facts. If your goal is to be a happy sexual person but your thoughts tell you otherwise, we are stuck! Sometimes thoughts are put in your head by other people, things, society. Especially about sex. I can’t get you to comfortable enjoyable sex if your thought is, “I am not a sexual being” Your body is listening to your thoughts. Sex and body image. Thoughts create our feelings which create our actions. Some of our thoughts aren’t serving us anymore. Sometimes we can’t make a thought go away, but we can see it for what it is – not a fact and not helping you. You can work on replacing your thoughts. Negative thoughts can’t get you to a positive solution. Sex coaching! Your biggest sex organ is your brain. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kj-casperson/message Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
