After COVID-19, we’ve witnessed a transformative shift in how society views and engages with women’s health, including sexual wellness and health. There’s a commendable surge in open dialogues surrounding topics like menstruation, fertility, and sexual satisfaction. This increased awareness has paved the way for a more inclusive and supportive environment, as well as the surge of female-owned brands, that shows how women felt that they had to take back ownership over their own bodies and well being.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Based on your experience, what are the major challenges in the next three years?” open=”no”]Despite strides in the right direction, there’s still a gap in providing accessible, accurate information or products on sexual wellness. The lack of regulation on products and the fact that all sexual wellness industries lack the most basic infrastructures (payments systems, easy-to-open bank account, funding, product testing protocols, quality certifications etc) makes it really hard to create truly innovative, high quality and sustainable brands. Disparities in healthcare access persist, hindering optimal care for women. Moreover, societal stigmas surrounding these issues continue to impede open communication specially on mainstream channels like the social networks, making it really difficult to make educational and informative content.
