Maria Sophocles, MD, is a gynecologist whose mission is to address gender inequality in sexual health—what she calls “The Bedroom Gap.” She advocates for open, empowering conversations around midlife sexuality, highlighting the dramatic sexual changes accompanying menopause. She believes sex should be grounded in pleasure and mutuality, not the outdated male-focused model still shaping cultural narratives.

Through education, clinical work, and public-facing commentary, she works to modernize how society understands women’s sexual health. As a gynecologist, Maria Sophocles is well informed about how women's bodies age, and how the sexual effects of menopause are neither understood nor discussed. Having talked with and treated women around the world, she knows this "broken, dried up" feeling midlife women develop is universal.

Having taught clinicians in the U.S and abroad, she also knows our medical education system does not adequately teach menopause issues, especially sexual ones, and is failing the nearly one billion menopausal women worldwide. Maria works to teach women -- in her clinic in Princeton New Jersey and her international virtual practice --to understand normal changes with age, and to advocate for their own health rights, whether sexual pleasure or reproductive choice.

Seeking to improve access to contraception for New Jersey marginalized women, she spoke repeatedly before the New Jersey Senate over seven years, and was instrumental and ultimately successful in the passage of a bill in 2023, granting women access to contraception without repeat clinic visits, a meaningful step toward reducing unplanned pregnancies. This bill is now enshrined in the NJ state constitution.

In 2015, Sophocles pioneered the use of lasers to regenerate vaginal tissue and introduced this technology to clinicians on five continents. 

She mentors women in STEM and entrepreneurs with ideas, advising healthtech startups, including one with a wearable device to stop hot flashes where she is the Chief Medical Officer. 

She is a board-certified member of the American College of Obstetricians & Gynecologists, holds formal certification as a Menopause Expert from The Menopause Society, and is a fellow of the International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health.

She has been named a fellow of the International Society for the Study of Vulvovaginal Diseases for her contributions to gynecology. 

She hosted the limited YouTube video series GyneCollege and has a forthcoming book "The Bedroom Gap." Chronically curious, she is an avid reader and traveler, collecting people ( and sand) and imbuing her life with humor and pathos as much as she can. 

Her TED Talk and website are great ways to get to know her.
