Sexual Health and Addiction: A Conversation with Dr. Kenneth Paul Rosenberg

To have a serious discussion about sex is really what doctors should be doing, and it's what sex therapists do, and that's called the sexual status exam.
Imagine navigating the complexities of addiction recovery while also grappling with sexual health issues. In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', host Mary Woods welcomes Dr. Kenneth Paul Rosenberg, a Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Public Health at Weill Cornell Medical College, to tackle this very topic. Dr. Rosenberg, known for his extensive work in both psychiatry and sexual medicine, dives into how sexual dysfunction and addiction often intersect.
From the sexual side effects of medication to the nuances of pornography and sexual addiction, Dr. Rosenberg provides a wealth of information that’s both enlightening and essential for anyone facing these challenges. He underscores the importance of the sexual status exam, a tool that helps clinicians understand sexual dynamics within relationships, and discusses how sexual health can be a pivotal part of recovery from substance use disorders.
If you’ve ever wondered how mental health professionals address the overlap between sexual and substance addictions, or if you’re looking for practical advice on managing sexual dysfunction during recovery, this episode is a must-listen. Dr. Rosenberg’s insights are not just for healthcare providers but for anyone touched by these issues, offering a compassionate and comprehensive look at an often-overlooked aspect of addiction recovery.
