F4 - Women, Sexuality, and Intimacy Across the Lifespan

The spectrum of sexuality and intimacy varies from one woman to another and throughout a woman’s lifespan. Normal sexual changes occur with puberty, pregnancy and postpartum, menopause, and older age, and are mediated by a complex interplay of psychological, interpersonal, environmental, and biological factors. This presentation will describe the elements of sexuality, intimacy, sexual dysfunction, and the importance of sexual health for women of all ages.
