Is It Time to Redefine Sexual Health? A Disruptive Conversation with Elliot Justin, MD
What if we told you that your sexual health is one of the most accurate indicators of your overall health—and that a wearable device might detect early signs of heart disease before your doctor does?
In this powerful episode of Beyond The Pills, we sit down with Dr. Justin, a pioneering physician, entrepreneur, and founder of FirmTech, a company on a mission to transform sexual wellness through science-backed technology. With over 25 years in emergency medicine, Dr. Justin has seen firsthand how overlooked signs in the bedroom can signal deeper issues in the body.
Now, he’s leveraging cutting-edge “underwearables” to do something unprecedented—track, enhance, and protect sexual health for both men and women, while empowering intimacy through data and design.
