Organized into three parts—naming the problem, getting a diagnosis, and overcoming pain—Healing Painful Sex includes medical checklists, illustrations, personal stories, treatment options, and guidance for moving forward after healing. Coady and Fish address the problem of chronic pain, how to understand and prevent misdiagnoses, define medical terms and conditions, and regain sexual joy.
