With the knowledge that U=U, it's time to de-medicalize our sex lives and reclaim our right to a pleasurable, consensual, enjoyable sexuality and intimacy.

Aging is good, especially when you're a teenager, you long to turn eighteen. There you become a citizen, you're considered old enough to make your own decisions, the burning surge of flying away from your ‘strict parents’ hits your mind and all you can think of is, “when and how can I move out?” But as you hit late twenties you start wishing if aging inevitable, and within a short while you’re celebrating your 30th birthday.

Making healthy aging happen is increasingly becoming a topic of conversation within our healthcare system, in research, and hopefully within ourselves.

My love life has never been smooth, actually many are the times that I've declared to have found my Mr. Right, only for the relationship to go south. To be fair, I have kissed a pond of frogs, yeah!

I remember that I had a bad cough and needed to see a doctor so badly for some prescriptions. A colleague had recommended Doctor S to me, saying that he is a good doctor.

I like getting older, I like the prospect of grey hair and grandchildren...
