This is a wonderful book! It is packed with so much information and tips that it can make your head spin. Just about anything to do with a women's body is in that book. All of the uneasy and embarrassing questions are answered. Not only does this book tell you, in detail, what can happen with your body; but, it also helps you through the emotions that go along with it. This book has excellent information on fertility, infertility, hysterectomies, and menopause. There were excellent mantras and positive thinking verses included. There were also stories of women, in different situations, that really brought her advise to heart. I truly felt Dr. Northrup was helping me make the body and mind connection while reading this book. I would recommend this book to every woman. I would also suggest leaving it in the open and re-reading it whenever possible. It is absolutely the best reference guide for women. As Dr. Christine Northrup said "..All help is self help".
