Why is #WomensSexualHealth so understudied?
"In medical school, I didn't learn about the clitoris. I didn't learn anything about women's sexual health.
I then went into a urology residency where I'm a penis doctor, right? I take care of men and men's #SexualHealth.
So, when I learned as a medical student how to examine the pelvis, they told us to stay away from the #Clitoris, that examining it might make our patient feel uncomfortable."#RachelRubin
