Sex and a Healthier You

Startling results show that women ranked having a healthy sex life higher than career satisfaction, home ownership, traveling and social life. However, a healthy sex life may be difficult for some to achieve—70% of women surveyed experienced a sexual health issue in the past year, which negatively impacted their overall health and well-being. The survey also found that many women claim they would be comfortable talking to a health care provider about a sexual health issue, but less than one-fifth (18%) actually visited their doctor about their problem.
