OMGYes - online education for women, by women about genitals and sexual function. Has interactive iPad page and video education - very frank.
Sensate Focus - help for couples to learn about themselves and each other, and to move towards a more fulfilling intimate relationship.
Good Evidently Cochrane articles about "how to" for HCPs
Books
Touch by David J Linden - Book; "the science of the sense that makes us human"
Bonk by Mary Roach - Book; "the curious coupling of sex and science"
Sex for Simple Humans by Dr Mary Frances Rogan - Book; sex throughout your life, self published by a US GP, goes through variety of common illnesses/injuries/issues with ageing, easy to read.
Devices
Pessary for stress incontinence - Really useful, new in the UK, not currently available on prescription, but will be soon.
Anal leaking silicone pessary - brilliant, clever device to insert it so would work even if has reduced shoulder movement or manual dexterity. Only good for passive leaking, but, it subtle, Ive had women use it and their partners never knew. Prescription
Anal leaking tampon - bit more robust than the Renew, bit more fiddly to use and more obvious
"These last three gadgets are useful for thinking about rehab, a lot of these people will leak with exercise. Wetting or pooing yourself is a massive barrier to exercise, so, really, I'd like to see everyone screened for continence and have these items prescribed and a referral to pelvic specialist physio or continence care nurse as routine if the symptoms persist longer than a month post ICU. What's the point in trying to rehab people if they then can't leave the house for fear of having an accident?"
