Today we\\u2019re talking about lady parts with Dr. Sherry Ross. She is an award winning OBGYN, health expert, author of She-ology and has a segment on Ellentube called \\u201cLady Parts\\u201d with Sarah Hyland. Her goal is to give women the means to take charge of their health at every stage of their lives. Today we\\u2019re asking all of your vagina questions - yes, especially the ones you\\u2019re too embarrassed to ask yourself (like what condoms to buy, red flag smells, BV, labido, all of the above!). This is the episode you want to share with your friends so we all have access to this important information about our bodies and how we can protect and care for them.\\xa0

\\u201cKNOW WHAT\'S NORMAL SO THEN YOU CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT\'S ABNORMAL, BECAUSE THERE\'S MANY THINGS THAT AFFECT THE PH BALANCE, ODOR AND TASTE OF THE VAGINA.\\u201d - DR. SHERRY

What we talk about:

  • What happened when Raeann made the first move to approach guys in Denver

  • Do you still feel like you need your parent\\u2019s approval even as an adult?

  • Which foods influence the smell of your vagina

  • The best/safest products for cleaning and moisturizing down there

  • Shaving vs waxing vs laser: does it matter?

  • Why some women have more UTIs than others

  • The 411 on IUDs (and how to make insertion less painful)

  • How often you should get a pap smear

  • When to start freezing your eggs

  • Factors that affect labido and how to increase yours

  • Why you should use condoms for oral sex and every time

  • Why a\\xa0 \\u201cclean\\u201d STD test still isn\\u2019t enough to avoid condoms

  • Ask away: how do I get over someone who just broke my heart?

\\u201cMEN TEND TO HAVE AN ORGASM WITHIN 3-5 MINUTES. WOMEN, WE\\u2019RE 13-20, SO IF THE AVERAGE FOREPLAY IS WITHIN 13 MINUTES, WHICH IT USUALLY IS, THEN WE\\u2019RE OUT OF LUCK. IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE MOST COMMON REASON WOMEN ARE DRY, IT\\u2019S BECAUSE WE AREN\\u2019T GIVEN THE TIME WE NEED TO GET OUR ENGINES REVVED.\\u201d - DR. SHERRY
