Dr. Bat Sheva Marcus is the founder and director of Maze Women’s Sexual Health, the largest independent women’s sexual health center in the US. A Licensed Clinical Social worker, with a master’s in public health, a master’s degree in social work, a master’s degree in Jewish studies, and a PhD in Human Sexuality, she has developed and overseen the treatment of thousands of women ranging in age from 18–81 over the past 20 years. Dr. Bat Sheva’s new book, Sex Points, is available now.

In this episode, Dr. Bat Sheva and I talk about my experience with painful sex when I was on the pill, the different types of sexual pain and what causes them, how she treats her patients with incredible success, what she learned from doing her PhD thesis on women’s use of vibrators, and so much more!
