Women's sexual health
By Mayo Clinic staffWomen's sexual health is an important aspect of women's health, whether you're trying to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases or you're worried about low sex drive or other women's sexual health problems.
Birth control is a primary aspect of women's sexual health. Weigh the pros and cons of various types of birth control. Consider how you feel about planning for sex, your comfort level with various types of contraceptive devices, and the effectiveness of each particular method.
Of course, women's sexual health goes beyond contraception. Learn how to achieve a fulfilling sexual relationship, and know how to protect yourself from sexually transmitted diseases. As you get older, understand common changes in women's sexual health — and how to maintain a healthy and enjoyable sex life at any age.
