Testosterone, Hormones & Pelvic Wellness: The Sexy Science of Pleasure | Health & Sexuality
In this powerful, stigma-breaking episode of Please Me Podcast, Eve sits down with Dr. Stephanie Zwonitzer, board-certified urologist and host of Between the Sheets, for an evidence-based conversation on sexuality, sexual health, hormones, and pleasure.
Together, they break down the gaps in modern sexual health education and explore what it really means to advocate for your wellbeing in a system that often overlooks sexual function. Dr. Zwonitzer shares expert insight into how hormones influence libido, mood, energy, and overall vitality, and why these conversations are essential for both men and women.
The discussion also dives into the realities of STI testing—what standard panels often miss, which tests people should actually be requesting, and how stigma continues to impact sexual health outcomes. From HPV and herpes education to testosterone imbalance, vaginal and penile atrophy, and pelvic floor dysfunction, this episode offers clear, science-backed information designed to empower listeners.
Dr. Zwonitzer also explains how pelvic floor therapy can transform intimacy and function, and highlights practical tools and treatments that support long-term sexual wellness. Throughout the episode, Eve and Dr. Zwonitzer emphasize the importance of open communication, self-advocacy, and removing shame from conversations around sex and health.
