Medical Whistleblower: What Your Doctor Doesn’t Know Is Hurting You | Dr Rachel Rubin
In a Nutshell
Dr. Rachel Rubin argues that medical training ignores women's sexual health, leaving most doctors unable to prescribe safe, effective hormone therapy or treat issues like painful sex and low libido. Vaginal estrogen cream used twice weekly prevents UTIs, improves arousal and orgasm, and costs almost nothing, yet over 75% of women never receive it due to outdated fears and lack of education. She stresses that understanding clitoral anatomy, pelvic floor function, and responsive versus spontaneous arousal, combined with open communication and scheduled intimacy, closes the orgasm gap and restores sexual satisfaction for both partners.

Vaginal estrogen cream applied twice weekly inside the vagina reduces painful and dry sex, improves arousal and orgasm, and prevents death from urinary tract infections. This generic medication costs little yet remains underprescribed, with more than 75 percent of patients in large database collections not receiving prescriptions.
The majority of women do not orgasm during sex because they lack education that orgasm comes from the clitoris rather than penetration. Most women do not know where their clitoris is located. The word clitoris does not exist in the 2026 checklist for what an OB/GYN must learn in training.
Men focus on penis size, hardness, straightness, girth, and duration, yet none of these factors determine women's pleasure and satisfaction. Basic sexual health information is not taught, and women's sexual health, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, menopause, hormones, pain with sex, and libido receive insufficient attention despite available data.
Even the most affluent women receive inadequate care for hormone therapy, menopause, and sexual health. Melinda Gates required three doctors before obtaining proper hormone therapy. Oprah consulted five doctors who failed to recognize her heart palpitations as menopausal symptoms. Halle Berry received a genital herpes diagnosis when she actually had genitourinary syndrome of menopause.
