Your Sexual Health: A Guide To Understanding Loving & Caring For Your Body

Your Sexual Health: A Guide To Understanding Loving & Caring For Your Body by Kate White M.D.

Your Sexual Health: A Guide To Understanding Loving & Caring For Your Body - Get bite-sized sex health tips from the gyno who’s seen it all. Dr. Kate White, M.D., M.P.H., OB-GYN gives front-line advice on gyno health, period health, sex health, and reproductive health, dispelling old-wives’ tales and offering fresh research.

Dr. Kate fills in the gaps left by modern sex education in an accessible and prescriptive way. Your Sexual Health provides answers to your burning questions about your reproductive health (and yes - even questions about vaginal burning!) and tells you things you may have never even thought to ask.

As one of the country’s leading gynecologists, vice chair of academics, director of the Fellowship in Complex Family Planning at Boston Medical Center, and associate professor of OB-GYN at the Boston University School of Medicine, Dr. Kate White arms readers with questions to ask of their own “doctor downstairs.” Addressing topics like taking care of your vaginal health, regulating your menstrual cycle, eliminating painful periods, choosing the right birth control, and achieving orgasms, you’ll understand your body in a new way through 69 easy-to-digest sections. And while many books about women’s health care focus on the experiences of heterosexual women, Dr. Kate provides a friendly, inclusive guide for all readers with female parts, regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation.

Throughout Your Sexual Health, you’ll learn how to:

• Understand how your body is normal — and notice when it’s not.
• Have periods that don’t ruin your life — or your clothes.
• Get in touch with your body and your partner for the best sex of your life.
• Protect your body from STDs and STIs.
• Learn the often-normal causes for occasionally abnormal pap smears.
• Discover the right contraception for your body.
• Pages: 128
• Book Binding: Hardcover

Your Sexual Health is the perfect high school graduation gift or college graduation gift. It’s filled with trustworthy and approachable information, making it your board-certified bedside confidante until you can see your gyno.

REVIEWS:

"Dr. White writes with conversational frankness, decades of sexual healthcare experience, and deep respect for her readers and patients. This book feels like talking to an old friend; it’s the kind of pocket resource I wish I could have shared with my loved ones when we were adolescents. I’m making up for it by telling everyone I know now :)" - Emma

"This book is everything a person with a vagina and uterus needs and more, when it comes to their sexual health! Dr. White has done a splendid job of making stigmatized topics so accessible and fun to read. I loved how she articulates the different phases of sexual health by categorizing them in 5 parts. This is a book that will benefit everyone in understanding their own (and perhaps their partners’) sexual behaviors and expectations! I highly recommend this book." - Rushina
