An amazing, wonderful book!

In my opinion, this is a Terrific book for women! It is very well written, and not at all condescending to women. There are millions of women that should read this book. Many women deal with this subject in silence, as I did, because of embarrassment and a hard thing to share with your friends. Everything is explained so well in plain language that we can all understand! This is a book and "Subject" that needs to be on "Oprah"! Bravo! Well Done! Thank you for writing the book.
