About this session
Sexual health is part of overall health and wellbeing, but concerns involving pain, vaginal dryness, libido, infections, contraception, reproductive health and pelvic symptoms are often difficult to discuss.
Embarrassment, misinformation and fear of being dismissed can prevent people from seeking appropriate support.
Sexual-health concerns may also affect working life indirectly through pain, disrupted sleep, fatigue, anxiety, medical appointments, treatment effects or difficulty concentrating.
The purpose of workplace education is not to encourage intimate conversations between colleagues, but to improve health literacy and make it easier for employees to access care and request practical support when needed.
This session provides respectful, inclusive and medically grounded education without asking participants to share personal experiences.
Participants learn how to recognize concerns that deserve assessment, prepare healthcare conversations, evaluate information and communicate the functional impact on work while protecting their privacy.
