Gathering similar blogs together under one banner helps when I am referring patients to particular topics for reference material. I did it a long time ago with the majority of my Pain Management blogs and recently did it with my Men’s Health blogs.  So today I decided to group all my prolapse and pessary blogs […]

Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder is defined as the spontaneous, intrusive, and unwanted genital arousal (tingling, throbbing, pulsating) in the absence of sexual interest and desire.

LRSM: The new acronym for post-op gynaecological and colorectal repair surgery management

Today’s blog is Number 300. I started my blog back in 2011 inspired by my son who was in first year architecture and had to do a blog as a part of his uni course. It’s hard to believe today, that I didn’t even know what a blog was back in 2011, considering they are
