Because we also found that greater access to information about changes to sexuality in the perinatal period was linked with greater sexual wellbeing for both members of the couple! Access to accurate info might protect against sexual problems during this vulnerable time!👇🏽.

Latest pub led by @erintfitzy and collab with @DalCaSHLab. Here we find that the majority of couples receive LITTLE to NO info from HCP in pregnancy or the postpartum about changes to their sexualities, despite couples WANTING this info. Why does this matter? 👇🏽.

To close out the 2nd year of the SWell Lab, we wanted to summarize all that we have achieved together. This work would not be possible without our incredible team of students, as well as all the folks who volunteer their time for sex science. Can’t wait to see what 2023 brings!

Spoiler alert: it works! 3.5 mins of info about how to have more mindful sex led to improvements in sexual satisfaction, desire, and sexual mindfulness in two studies!.
