Fantastic overview of women's health. From anatomy to surgical procedures, if you want to learn more about your body and how to advocate for your health, this is for you.

I appreciated the layout of the book that made it easy to skip over passages that didn't apply and to find things easier that you were interested in reading about.

This is a great read for all ages, from puberty to post menopause. Thorough and clear, the list of questions to ask your doctor and things to expect during pelvic exams and procedures was really thoughtful to add.

Thank you NetGalley and Flatiron Books for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Where can I sign up for this author to be my doctor? As you can infer by the fact that I felt the need to read this book, my gynecological medical team has been subpar at best, terrible at worst, over the years. When dealing with complex issues, you just can't find a doctor who is willing to listen or help, or as the ability to do so, if you get past the first two hurdles.

This book was extremely comprehensive and informative. My one complaint is that the author recommended Nancy Nook for endometriosis, when as of late, it has been show that the information there may not be as valuable as it once seemed and she runs a very biased and toxic community.

But aside from that, this book is very detailed and explains all the conditions and treatment options very well. It was written in a way that was easy to understand and really taught me a lot.

This book had so much information that was told in such an easy to understand way. It's rare than anything having to do with female health has all the information you could want, but that it's also told in an uncondescending way.

Very informative and easy to understand! I liked that the author was so insightful in approaching and normalizing delicate topics that many people with vaginas might find difficult to ask about.

Wow. This book was incredibly informative, inclusive and written with such thoughtfulness while touching important topics. I have had many office visits to the Gyno and have been dismissed many times. This book made me feel seen. The writing was informative, but still easy to read and not dense. I really enjoyed this book and I echo everyone else, when I say it should be required reading.

This book was wonderful!

I've been searching for books to better understand my own health. What makes this journey difficult, is many of the books out there are either intended to frighten women or they're overtly religion based.

This book was exactly what I've been looking for: it's science based, educational, and broken up into easily digestible sections. There's also an entire part of the book dedicated to sex ed and explaining the functions of the reproductive system piece by piece. Something I didn't know I needed. Some facts I'd learned from tiktok over the last year (hello, egg alternating which ovary it drops from), but much of it was new to me. Which is incredibly sad!

The author encourages readers to skip around and use this book as a resource. It's formatted perfectly for this.

Super informative! I wish that something like this book had existed when I was younger.

There was amazingly a lot of conditions that I didn't know that people with vaginas could have -- or that they were completely common conditions.

Thank you to NetGalley and Flatiron Books for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!

I think this book was amazing! It's so refreshing to see a book talk about everything that a person who menstruates, has a vagina, and other related conditions can experience. More often than not, our issues get pushed to the side and not talked about when they affect so many of us. I think the author did such a great job really outlining each problem and discussing symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and other related facts. I don't think that there was a single stone that was unturned in this book. I think this should be required reading for everyone!
