Urinary incontinence, or involuntary leakage of urine is a common problem, but one not discussed freely in a doctor’s office. The onset of this condition may occur in one of two ways. Following a traumatic vaginal birth there may be a very sudden recognition by the new mother that she is unable to control the flow of urine. The onset comes very shortly after delivery and may occur with a variety of movements and … [Read more...]
Ask What, Ask When, Ask Why
Women go for doctor examination yearly. They undergo pap smears, mammography, and internal examination and if no pathology is found they are told all is fine and come back next year. However, often women want to ask about some "insignificant things" but do not, as they feel that there is no time, the concerns might be silly, insignificant and not worthy to discuss. Often they do not know even what to ask or how to … [Read more...]
Sexy Clothes for sexy bodies
Summer will be here soon and again short skirts, bathing suits and shorts will be worn. As we come out of hybernation we look in the mirror and often would like to tweak certain parts to make them look good and attractive. Liposuction becomes very important. However, did you know that you can do liposuction of the body and preserve the fat and then inject it wherever you need it. Often people inject fat into labia … [Read more...]
Vaginal dryness
Very often after menopause or if one had tx for Breast Cancer with chemotherapy vaginal dryness occurs. It is very good to use lubricants because that reduces pain on intercourse and also reduces irritation of the whole vaginal area. The Colen MD office has a very nice lubricant sample that you may request to try. It is just the right consistency and feel and smell and even taste. For women who exercise by bicycling … [Read more...]

In fact, although it's not the least-expensive procedure, it does tend to be one of the lower-priced surgeries. Here's a list of the most commonly-sought cosmetic-surgery procedures, along with the average cost in the United States. Take a … [Read more...]
Men and Vaginal Cosmetic Surgery
I frequently hear men poking a little fun at women who opt to have either labiaplasty or vaginaplasty done. These guys think it's a little odd for a woman to worry about this (even though presumably they'd be all in favor of the increased sexual performance that the surgery might bring). … [Read more...]
How to Tell a Bad Cosmetic Surgeon

Labiaplasty and Vaginaplasty
It's amazing how difficult it is to do research on labiaplasty without coming across the term "vaginaplasty." Or how hard it is to find something on vaginaplasty without getting overloaded with information on labiaplasty. Why is that? It's because the procedures are so much alike that to a lot of people, they are the same thing. … [Read more...]
Guilt and Vaginal Surgery
I've found that for many women, the whole issue of getting reconstructive surgery on the vagina, whether through vaginaplasty or labiaplasty, is frought with emotional considerations. First, the reason that so many seek the procedure in the first place is because of negative emotions they hold toward themselves. Labiaplasty, for insance, is usually sought because of the labia tissue being overgrown. It becomes an … [Read more...]
Self Examination
For women self examination is very important and yet few do it. First, self exam of breasts is important as any lump that is new must be investigated. Usually the nonpainful lump is the one to worry about. Mammograms and sonograms of the breasts should also be done after the age of 30 yo to make sure all is OK. Examination of one's skin is also very important. Squamous cell and basal cell carcinomas occur in … [Read more...]
