Our Bodies, Ourselves – The Classic Feminist Health Guide for Women

Sensual Wellness Spotlight

More than a book—Our Bodies, Ourselves is a movement.

This landmark guide offers a sweeping, inclusive, and empowering look at women’s health through a deeply feminist lens. Written by the original Boston Women’s Health Book Collective and expanded with voices from diverse communities, it provides practical, honest, and politically informed information on everything from reproductive rights to sexual health, menopause to mental wellness.

Rooted in the belief that knowledge is power, Our Bodies, Ourselves encourages women to become advocates for their own health and to organize collectively for systemic change. Whether you're exploring your body for the first time or looking to better navigate a complex healthcare system, this book is a foundational resource in reclaiming health and autonomy.
