She-ology: The Definitive Guide to Women's Intimate Health. Period.

An Important Read for Women... and Men!
I purchased this book on my wife's behalf. She's in her mid-40's and entering perimenopause. While she looked extensively online, there simply isn't a lot of credible health and wellness information for women. And very little of it is provided by a trusted physician, let alone a female OB/GYN.She-ology delivered. It provided the insight and expertise my wife was seeking. And she loved that it was an easy read (she could skip directly to the chapters that were relevant for her). She liked it so much that she insisted I read it too. I'll be honest, I haven't studied it cover-to-cover but I did read the chapters that were important to her and I find I have a deeper appreciation for what she's experiencing physically and mentally. We both highly recommend this book for women of all ages (and the men who care enough to understand them).

It's not really what it says it is.
I bought this book because no one ever explained to me how to take care of down there, how to groom pubic hair, how to get the pill, or where and how to get tested for STDs. This book basically glossed over these things. It also didn't explain female anatomy like it should have. For example, it should have addressed all the different types of hymens and how the clitoris can be hooded and hard to find. Plus, I didn't like the addition of all the celebrity introductions, which did nothing to validate this book for me since I think pop culture is vapid. It's sad that the author even felt the celebrity write-ups were necessary to grab women's attention.

A must-read: Tales from the V-side
Oh, the stories only a vagina can tell. And they are told in She-ology – the new go-to book about everything vagina. Dr. Sherry Ross’ twenty-plus year career as an OB-GYN and a v-card carrying member give this book a unique, expert voice. It contains a plethora of knowledge including: how to properly clean your vagina, how to protect you and your partner from sexually transmitted diseases, the dreadful C, birthing, fertility, the tween vagina, the shy vagina, the unavoidable aging vagina, and of course, the big O.Dr. Sherry takes the reader on her rounds with you as she conveys conversations with patients where the tales are as wide as a pair of legs in stirrups. Her warmth comes across in her storytelling treating each word like she does her patients with great care, intellect, respect and humor. With the turn of each page comes vital information and invaluable tips, some of which even the most bashful of readers will appreciate and embrace.Every chapter begins with a creative sketch of the vagina personifying the hot topic about to be covered along with a private story from a familiar celebrity patient. Dr. Sherry even shares bits and pieces of her own heartfelt journey in an engaging manner. A foreword written by Reese Witherspoon sets the tone with a beautiful tribute to the author and her dedication to women’s health issues.Even if you can’t utter the word vagina after reading this invaluable book, Dr. Sherry has successfully accomplished her goal in writing a relatable contemporary book counseling women about this vital organ and keeping it healthy. This book is a must-read that you will find yourself turning back to over and over to dispel myths, for advice, facts, or just for a laugh.

It's funny and informative
What a fun book! I spent 2 days and finished it. The information is so true. I have always been afraid to ask questions because I get so embarrassed. Had I known that other women and men have the same questions I would have read this book a long time ago. The guts to write all this information down. I suggest that everyone read this book, you will laugh out loud and be well informed about what is happening to your body as the years go by. Thank you for the learning experience Dr Sherry!

Rubbish!
I have not yet finished the book and I can confidently say it is utter rubbish.1 - I didn't learn much new and certainly nothing that cannot be found on the internet for free. And there was me thinking I would find out a whole ton of new and exciting information!2 - I didn't appreciate the stories and anecdotes from the "celebrity" friends and patients of Dr Ross. It honestly doesn't impress me at all!3 - She pushes vaccines and medication at every opportunity which was yet another disappointment in the book.All in all, this book will not end up in my bookshelf as I can't imagine I will want to read it again or refer to it. I am thinking that all the 5 star reviews came from clients or friends.

Absolute Kauffempfehlung für Frauen... und ja auch Männer
Ich kann dieses Buch nur jeder Frau ans Herz legen. Man merkt, dass es von einer sehr erfahrenen Gynäkologin, die ihre Berufung gefunden hat, geschrieben worden ist. Es beantwortet die vielen Fragen bezüglich des weiblichen Körpers, die man nie offen fragt. Ich konnte es nicht weglegen. Es ist so interessant und humorvoll geschrieben. Super finde ich auch, dass sehr viele berühmte Frauen ihre persönliche Story in dieses Buch einfließen lassen haben.
