    17. The Discharge Chronicles: The Usual Suspects

    Ever wondered why that mysterious discharge keeps showing up like an uninvited guest? Or why your yeast infection seems to have more comebacks than a '90s boy band?  In this laugh-out-loud yet educational episode of Labia Logic, Dr. Ashley Fuller and Dr. Meredith McClure dive deep into the underworld of vaginitis, the usual suspects of yeast and bacterial vaginosis (BV). With humor, honesty, and a dash of microbiology geekery, they tackle the uncomfortable questions we all secretly want to ask. From "cottage cheese discharge" to the "fishy" aroma of BV, Ashley and Meredith explain the symptoms, causes, and most common misunderstandings about vaginal health. They share the not-so-sexy truth about what's happening when your microbiome is off-balance, why treating without testing can make things worse, and how certain meds (looking at you, Jardiance) can turn your vagina into a yeast playground.  Along the way, they reveal their favorite tools of the trade, like microscopes for spotting budding yeast, saline slides and KOH preps for quick in-office diagnoses. And they take on myths about sexually transmitted infections and pap smear "surprises."

    16. The 50 Shades of Nay: When Your Turn-On Needs a Tune-Up

    15. 50 Shades of Nay: Libido and the Vulva

    Feeling like your libido packed up and left without leaving a note? You're not alone.  In this hilarious and honest episode of Labia Logic, Dr. Ashley Fuller and Dr. Meredith McClure pull back the covers on one of the most common yet least-discussed topics in women's health: low libido. From the stress of midlife chaos to the reality that pain and fatigue are major turn-offs, our favorite vulva experts unpack the messy, multifaceted world of sexual desire.  Good (bad?) news, a glass of wine is not the answer. You'll get a true education on the biopsychosocial model of libido. Translation: it's complicated! They explore how hormones, mental load, relationships, and even the state of your kitchen can all hit the brakes on desire.  You'll also hear why the linear "get turned on, have sex, orgasm" model is outdated, and how a more circular, responsive view of desire fits real life (especially if sleep is currently sexier than your partner). Drs. Fuller and McClure also cover the surprisingly empowering world of erotica apps, sex scheduling, and FDA-approved libido meds. Moral of the story: you're not broken. You're complex, human, and deserving of satisfaction.

    14. When Your Clit Throws a Fit: Understanding Clitoral Pain

    Ever wondered what happens when your c**t throws a fit? Really, it's not as fun as it sounds.  In this episode of Labia Logic, Drs. Ashley Fuller and Meredith McClure are joined by vulvar specialist Dr. Jill Krapf to talk about the mysterious, often-ignored world of clitoral pain. From awkward anatomy lessons in med school to why no one seems to look at the clitoris during exams, we're pulling back the hood, literally and figuratively. Dr. Krapf walks us through the two main culprits of clitoral pain: structural issues like adhesions and nerve-related drama. She explains why some people can't stand the seam of their jeans brushing "down there," why others can't find their clitoris anymore, and how keratin pearls (yes, pearls) might be the villains causing sand-in-your-eye-level discomfort.  Equal parts science and sass, the conversation makes it clear: this is a real medical issue, not something to just grit your teeth through. If your clit is cranky, you deserve answers, not eye-rolls. This topic definitely got skipped in sex-ed class, so make sure you share with anyone who needs a little Labia Logic in their life! More about our guest: Dr. Jill Krapf is a board-certified Obstetrician Gynecologist specializing in female sexual pain disorders at The Center for Vulvovaginal Disorders Florida in Tampa. She is a co-author of the book When Sex Hurts: Understanding and Healing Pelvic Pain. Dr. Krapf is active in research and has published chapters and peer-reviewed articles on vulvodynia and vulvar lichen sclerosus.  She is Associate Editor for the textbook Female Sexual Pain Disorders, 2nd Edition. She is a Fellow of the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health (ISSWSH) and a Fellow of the International Society for Vulvovaginal Disorders (ISSVD), serving as Chair of the Social Media Committee for ISSWSH.  She shares educational content on her Instagram page @jillkrapfmd and her website jillkrapfmd.com.

    13. Clitoracy 101: Getting to Know the MVP of the Vulva

    The clitoris: tiny but mighty, misunderstood but magnificent. She's really the MVP of the vulva, so let's get to know her a little bit! In this episode of Labia Logic, Dr. Ashley Fuller and Dr. Meredith McClure shine the spotlight on  the clitoris, the organ that somehow managed to dodge serious medical attention until the early 2000s.  Yes, you read that right: we mapped the moon before we mapped the clitoris. Let that sink in. Ashley and Meredith break down why the clitoris has been overlooked in medical training, sex education, and even at the gynecologist's office. C'mon, Docs, it's not that hard to find! They cover its full anatomy, from the visible tip to the hidden structures that wrap around the vagina, and why it deserves the same respect as, say, its male counterpart.  Listeners will walk away knowing why examining the clitoris matters, how Hollywood has been lying about orgasms, and why vibrators deserve a standing ovation. You'll learn about clitoral adhesions, nerve endings galore (more than a cow, actually), and the importance of getting a mirror and saying hello to your own anatomy.  It's the sex ed you should have gotten in the first place!

    12. Lichen Sclerosus, Up Close and Personal

    What happens when you go from being dismissed by doctors to becoming a voice for thousands? In this episode of Labia Logic, our hosts interview two awesome women who are changing the game for people living with lichen sclerosus and lichen planus. If you've ever felt like no one's talking about what you're going through—these guests are here to say, "We see you. We are you." Kathy Ruiz-Carter and Jaclyn Lanthier join Drs. Fuller and McClure on Labia Logic for a glimpse into the real world of getting diagnosed and getting treated with these two vulvar skin conditions. Kathy and Jaclyn are two advocates who know firsthand how confusing, isolating, and frustrating life with these conditions can be.  Kathy shares her journey from a confusing diagnosis to creating the Lichen Sclerosus Support Network, where she empowers patients through education, community, and yes, some much-needed validation.  Jaclyn, founder of The Lost Labia Chronicles, gets real about the emotional toll of delayed diagnosis and how becoming an advocate helped her take back control—not just of her health, but her voice. Guest Takeaways: Trust your experience: Both Kathy and Jaclyn emphasize that you are the expert on your own body—and that it's okay to seek second, third, or fourth opinions until you're heard. Community matters: Support networks like Kathy's nonprofit help patients feel less alone and more empowered in navigating chronic conditions. Advocacy is powerful: Sharing your story can be healing, and it can spark systemic change in medical education and public awareness. Hope is real: With the right care team, treatment, and support, you can manage these conditions and reclaim quality of life—one conversation at a time.

    11. The Lichens Awaken: A Vulvar Dermatology Saga

    Ever been told "it's all in your head" when something's very much happening in your pants? You're not alone.  In this eye-opening and surprisingly uplifting episode of Labia Logic, hosts Dr. Ashley Fuller and Dr. Meredith McClure peel back the layers (with consent, of course) on two misunderstood vulvar conditions: lichen sclerosis and lichen planus.  Together, they explain what these disorders actually are, not just dry skin. Ashley and Meredith also get into the roadblocks to getting a diagnosis, and the crucial role of supportive healthcare providers. Googling your symptoms is not a treatment plan—but finding a community who gets it just might be. You'll walk away from this episode with a better understanding of lichen sclerosis and lichen planus, the importance of early detection, and why no one should suffer in silence—or without a specialist.  More about the hosts of Labia Logic: Dr. Ashley Fuller is a Sexual Medicine Gynecologist and Vulvar Specialist in Seattle, WA.  www.ashleyfullermd.com   Dr. Meredith McClure is a Menopause SpecialistSexual Medicine Gynecologist and Vulvar Specialist in Dallas, TX. www.meredithmccluremd.com Follow the show on Instagram @labia_logic
