Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

A woman may not know her hymen has broken, because it doesn't always cause pain or noticeable bleeding. Having a broken hymen doesn't necessarily mean a woman has lost her virginity.

_Puberphonia: Addressing Voice Concerns and Exploring Treatment Options_ Given your concerns and experiences, here's a summary of puberphonia, treatment options, and recommendations for achieving a deeper, more masculine voice: *Understanding Puberphonia* 1. *Definition*: Puberphonia is a voice disorder characterized by a high-pitched voice in males beyond the age of puberty. 2. *Causes*: The exact cause is unknown, but it's thought to be related to hormonal changes, vocal habits, and psychological factors. *Treatment Options* 1. *Voice Therapy*: Speech therapy is the primary treatment for puberphonia. A speech-language pathologist (SLP) will help you develop proper vocal techniques, such as: - Relaxation exercises - Breathing techniques - Vocal exercises to lower pitch - Speech therapy to improve vocal quality 2. *Hormonal Evaluation*: Consult an endocrinologist to rule out any underlying hormonal imbalances that might be contributing to your high-pitched voice. *Recommendations* 1. *Seek a Specialist SLP*: Find an SLP with experience in treating voice disorders, particularly puberphonia. 2. *Regular Therapy Sessions*: Commit to regular therapy sessions (at least 2-3 times a week) for an extended period (several months). 3. *Practice Consistently*: Regularly practice the exercises and techniques taught by your SLP to reinforce new vocal habits. 4. *Be Patient*: Changing your voice takes time, effort, and patience. Don't expect immediate results, but instead, focus on gradual progress. *Additional Tips* 1. *Record Your Voice*: Record yourself speaking and listen to the recordings to become more aware of your voice. 2. *Relaxation Techniques*: Practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation, to help manage stress and anxiety that may be contributing to your high-pitched voice. Please consult a specialist SLP and an endocrinologist to discuss your specific situation and develop a personalized treatment plan.

Could you help me understand why my wife might be experiencing less sexual performance? Are there any specific women's sex tablets, like women Viagra, that you could recommend? I'm looking for some better options and would really appreciate your advice on this.

Reduced sexual performance or desire in women can have many causes, including stress, hormonal changes, or relationship factors. A commonly prescribed option is **flibanserin (Addyi)**, sometimes referred to as "female Viagra," which may help increase sexual desire in premenopausal women. It's important to consult a doctor to determine the underlying cause and explore safe and effective treatments tailored to individual needs.
