This should be required reading for all doctors.

Dr. Northrup is my go-to doctor on all things, but especially my female body. She’s intuitive and teaches us to be the same. To use the Intuition that is God-given. I cannot say enough good things about this book. I would love to sit down and have a cup of tea with her but since that will probably never happen, this is second best. I gave copies of earlier editions to my daughters; this will probably be under their Christmas trees this year. And I cannot wait for the audible version due out later this year. Thank you Dr. Northrup and please keep shining your light. I only wish now I could have

A Must Have Book For Women - My Go To Reference

In 2010, I received a wonderful gift from my sister, the 2010 copy of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom. I used the 2010 book often but I was in the middle of raising my young family and didn't take time for myself. I was so eager to purchase the 2020 book as a gift to myself. The book is a gift, written by a gifted woman, Dr. Northrop. I was particularly drawn to Healing Ourselves, Healing Our World. I could feel it in my heart this is what I needed as I am in a new chapter as an empty nester. I have also started working with breath and chakras, which I did in my thirties and found incredibly be

Life changing book for women!

Life changing book! All women should own it. I've had a severe miscarriage that prevented me from ever having kids and I've also survived molestation as a little girl. Dr. Northrup gives amazing advice backed by her medical degree on how this affects your life and how to make it better. She also guides you through changes (such as menopause which I'm coming through at age 44) and helps you understand what is happening to your body and why. This is an amazing reference book and I'm so glad I now own it. Thank you Dr Northrup!

Intimidating length, great content

I must say that when it arrived I was surprised at the thickness of the book (I didn’t even look at the number of pages before purchasing). I’m just 2 chapters in and the insights gained already are thought-provoking. I’ll definitely be reading it to the very end.

Amazing! This book is invaluable

This book is incredible, the new addition speaks to women of ALL ages. It’s an invaluable source for all women, I can’t even tell you how much I highlighted. Sadly a lot of info in this book I definitely did not get from my own mom or in school.The depth of info is beyond anything I could have hoped for. I feel empowered now knowing I am fully equipped to teach my children.I’m looking forward to buying the new Audible version when it comes out in the future as well.Thank you Dr. Northrup!

Good

So excited to read! It’s in great condition. It just is kinda upsetting to see the $5.99 sticker on it… when I paid $15. Might return because apparently if I buy somewhere it would be $6. I get the hustle though. Either way good purchase just didn’t love that the price was on there

Wonderful resource for all women!

Dr Northrup has spent her entire life devoted to women’s health and boy is that evident in this masterpiece. I recently had a minor health issue and my Dr in NYC, as wonderful as she is, could not seem to find a solution for me. Well, I found the answer in this book and now I have no more discomfort. I am extremely grateful for this incredible resource. I feel empowered and in control of my wellbeing like never before. Thank you Dr Northrup!
