The Vagina Bible: A Comprehensive Guide to the Anatomy and Health of the Vulva and Vagina

Kavya: Thank you Dr. Jen. 👏 You remove the patriarchy and disinformation from our Vaginas. Loved reading this book and feel so much better equipped with knowledge about my own body that should have been shared with us already.

Customer: This is extremely informative, while also being entertaining. A great read foe everyone. I considered myself "well informed" and I still learned a lot of new things. Highly recommend!

Dalton O: I loved this book! Prior to reading it, I would have considered myself very knowledgeable about female health- I grew up in a family of all women, and lots of them, so nobody really shied away from discussing body issues or vaginal health. However, after reading this book, I was shocked to learn how many things I was taught about as being very important are actually unsubstantiated and functionally worthless! The author breaks down almost every issue you could possibly think of- from the generic sex and periods, to menopause and hormones, from BV and yeast infections to how diet impacts your genital health. And, best of all, she does this with research- every point is backed up with multiple studies and research into the legitimacy of each study, too. For example, she breaks down the myth that diet has anything to do with vaginal health because, embarrassingly obvious, your vagina is not connected to your digestive tract. Like, at all. Or, the myth that women with vaginas can 'only wear certain fabrics,' another myth, unsubstantiated with no evidence to back it up. It was honestly a fascinating book. Even better, it's broken down into chapters which are further broken down into...

Sandy K: Extremely direct and correctly named anatomy. Every woman should know her own body. This will teach you how fascinating you are.

Ruby: Brilliant book! It is a sad reflection though that the difference between the vulva and the vagina has to be made as it seems so many actually do think that vagina covers it all.

Written wonderfully and in an easy to read format which is particularly useful for younger people to have a look at. (Teens etc.)

With the way society is as a whole, this book is definitely another much needed read with lots of information presented in a friendly manner.

The author has done a brilliant job and cannot fault at all. Thank you.

Sonia Maria Barroso Zainko: É tão bom estar bem informada, e nós mulheres somos bombardeadas com idiotices sobre nossos corpos que podem ser muito perigosas. Então, recomendo o livro da Dra. Jen!

Lenora G.: Oh. Em. Gee!!! A friend of mine, a retired MD, suggested I read this, and he also suggested it should be required reading for all medical students. As a lay person, I agree. I could hardly put it down.

It does read more like a textbook than a novel, but Dr. Gunter talks about a subject with ease, and humor, that many still find almost embarrassing to bring up. Myself included. I was raised in a very conservative family, and one just didn’t talk about such things unless in euphemism. For me, this book is a godsend, and I truly wish I’d had it when I was young and in child-bearing years!

If you think there is nothing humorous to write about a vagina, start with the cover of the book, a pink zipper, opened. All those teeth!!! ;-) And go from there. I laughed out loud often.

I read this book cover to cover, but it would also be a great book just to keep on your reference shelf. Or, read it cover to cover and then put it on your reference shelf.

I believe Ayelet Walman said it bed, “But this book if you have a vagina or if you spend any time at all in reasonably close proximity to one.” If you have a vagina, or know someone who does, I heartily...

loving5kids: A book recommended by my OB/Gyn. Not my typical reading. It was interesting. She has "science" to back her up. Even though "science" doesn't always follows common sense i.e. I like chicken broth if my throat hurts even though it is not based on science. So thanks for the explanations why the medical community thinks the way they do. I don't necessarily agree with all. But very thorough.
