84. Part 2: More menopause vagina stuff with Dr. Burt Webb
Dr. Burt Webb is an Arizona-based ob-gyn and intimate wellness specialist who takes a holistic, functional, integrative approach to women’s health. (He also represents the non-invasive soundwave treatment Cliovana, which we discuss in part 2 of this podcast.)
This week he gets into all the different treatments, hormone therapy and otherwise – that he uses for the entire pelvic region. With almost 30 years in practice treating women, he is one of the most switched-on mainstream practitioners to appear on the podcast.
This is a fascinating conversation and the second in our first-ever two-part episode. Don’t forget to listen back to last week, on episode 83, when we talked all about why he believes a dry vagina isn’t always just a dry vagina due to menopause. And gives us major guidance on how to tackle the issue systemically.
Highlights:
- Vaginal estrogen and breast cancer, including specifics on how to use it differently
- “They aren’t as familiar with the vagina” (who he’s talking about)
- That time he coached a young woman on a plane about vaginal health (she asked)
- How he uses vaginal
- DHEA?
- Additional ingredients in vaginal estrogen and why they may not work for you
- Why your clitoris is a lot bigger than you think – and any treatment needs to focus on all of it
- Why women need to educate themselves – and men – about their bodies
- How the body’s own healing factors can be harnessed to help your vagina
- Cliovana, radio frequency, laser treatments and the O-shot – and what’s best for what issue
- Why mixing and matching – and tissue health – are key to treating each women individually
- What to look for in an intimate wellness specialist
- How the placebo effect plays a part in treatment
