Menopause may bring big changes — but it doesn't mean the end of intimacy. In this final episode of our menopause series, Dr. Eve Glazier sits down with OB-GYNs Dr. Mya Zapata and Dr. Rajita Patil for a candid and empowering conversation about women’s sexual health after 40ish.

We unpack how hormonal shifts, cultural narratives, and aging can affect libido, intimacy, and self-image — and more importantly, what you can do about it. From normalizing what’s rarely talked about to offering real strategies for navigating discomfort, desire, and connection, this episode is both informative and reassuring.

What you’ll hear:
• Sex after 40 — what changes and why
• Solo vs. relational intimacy
• Body image and self-perception
• Cultural myths around aging and sex
• When to seek help (and what kind)
• Tips to improve intimacy and sexual wellness

🎧 Listen now to redefine what intimacy looks like — at any age.
