Dhru Purohit Show

This episode is brought to you by Sweetgreen and AquaTru.

When we think of sex, we may not immediately think of longevity. Yet a healthy sex life is related to longevity, and challenges in sexual health can often be precursory signs for underlying metabolic or chronic health issues.

Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with board-certified urologist Dr. Rena Malik to discuss the importance of healthy sex life and the challenges men and women face with low libido levels, pelvic floor dysfunction, hormone imbalances, and masturbation. Dr. Malik shares her expert advice on increasing sex in our busy lives and the science behind sexual health, diet, exercise, and orgasms. She also discusses the roadblocks that prevent us from having optimal sex lives and the importance of positive and exploratory communication with our partners.

Dr. Rena Malik is a board-certified urologist with a talent for dispelling medical misinformation, discussing intimate topics, and evidence-based discussions of taboo topics. Dr. Malik is also a prominent reconstructive urologist treating bladder conditions, sexual dysfunction, pelvic pain, and hormone management.
