The sexual mindset for men and women, once they have consented, is to have sex unencumbered and free. However, given the realities of unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases (including the AIDS virus), couples—especially non-monogamous ones—need protection.

The processing of soy protein into peptides in the GI tract greatly increases their healthful effects by exposing active groups within the amino acid chain. Lunasin, one of the most promising of these peptides, has been shown in recent studies to be an effective anti-cancer agent. Found in a variety of readily available foods, lunasin is an accessible component to healthy living.

Some physicians may be unaware of their patients' sexual activities or may feel ill at ease discussing them. Provided with a basic knowledge of these activities and their associated slang terms, a physician can better communicate with the patient, allowing for accurate and thorough diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing care.

Each treatment type carries inherent risks and benefits.

A greater understanding of the vagina will give women confidence to engage in more open communication, which will increase their knowledge and empower them to take control of their sexual and reproductive health.

In search of relief, these women try various therapies: including traditional pharmacologic interventions, home remedies, macrobiotic supplements, relaxation and yoga techniques, pelvic floor massage, cognitive therapy, and even surgical excision of the affected area.

A new multitherapy method, comprehensive pelvic floor rehabilitation with stimulation therapy, involves behavioral interventions, patient-specific pelvic floor exercise prescription, patient- and diagnosis-specific pelvic floor stimulation, and perhaps medication. Although in its early stages of assessment, this comprehensive treatment shows immense promise.

In this context, the imaging techniques commonly used to diagnose and treat cancer offer unique challenges.

Sexual motivation, emotional intimacy and sexual skills of the couple, psychological and biological factors and sex hormones—including estrogens and androgens—all play roles. Decreased levels of androgens in late reproductive years contribute to the decline in sexual interest/desire in older women. Several investigators agree that androgens influence libido and behavior but not activity or response—such as lubrication and orgasm.

However, the efficacy of many of these is still largely in question. Empiric evidence reveals several promising solutions.

From the great symphony halls to the blaring boom boxes of summer; from the lullabies that drift babies to sleep to the spiritual music that inspires us; from weddings to funerals; from cell phone rings to marching bands to singing in the shower. Music can soothe or arouse, excite or relax us. It is perhaps the oldest language and it carries messages and affects how we respond to stimuli.
