​ Premarital Counseling: Thank you for taking the first step in trying to better understand Relationship and how to build lasting and happy relationships. I start by saying that there are no Perfect Relationships or Perfect Marriages anywhere in the World! Why so you just asked? It is so because Human Beings are not perfect and will never be perfect!

There are fundamental issues that need to be explored in order to benefit from this program: We cannot change other ...

I work mostly with children and adolescents, and adults as well. My office is in Natick, Massachusetts. It's a wonderful location on the corner of Rt. 9 and Rt.27. We have two Suites opening up at the end of July. I'm not sure if we are supposed to advertise here. So I apologize if I am crossing boundaries. I am not sure where to get the word out to colleagues.

Atomic Bomb Image Inappropriate for Promotion of Women's Pelvic Health and Prolapse Patients

https://amymarshsexologist.com/2020/01/03/apops-whats-wrong-with-this-picture/ Earlier today I asked the founder of APOPS (Association for Pelvic Organ Prolapse Support), Sherrie Palm, to reconsider using a picture of an atomic bomb to promote her organization and public awareness of pelvic organ prolapse. I cited the continued suffering and displacement of the Marshall Island people, the secret military experimentation on the Marshall Islanders (post-radiation exposure), damage to the environment, and the medical plight of "Atomic Veterans." Her response was such that I will no longer endorse her organization until she discontinues the use of this image and ...

Put Pelvic Organ Prolapse on Your Sexual Wellness Radar

By Amy Marsh posted 10-18-2019
1 person recommends this.
Do you know someone with pelvic organ prolapse (POP)? Chances are you do, or you may be suffering from symptoms of this condition yourself, without knowing the cause. Though estimates of percentage of sufferers vary from study to study, the UChicagoMedicine website says POP "is very common, with about 50 percent of women having some degree of prolapse. Over 12 percent of American women will have surgery for it in their lifetime." In the UK, "loss of vaginal or uterine support is seen in up to 30-76% of women presenting for routine gynecological care" (Barber 2016). The  Association for Pelvic Organ Proplapse Support (APOPS) accepts 50% as a workable estimate, ...
