Abstract

Gynecological issues have a special position in the eyes of the general public. Women - apart from the natural concern for their own health - are extremely interested in everything related to human reproduction.

On the one hand, it is sexuality, including contraception, and on the other, the ability to conceive and deliver a child. Gynecological infections, or the issue of menopause and menopause, and last but not least, self-care are also a very important area.

Thanks to the Internet, information on various gynecological topics is more abundant for the general public today, but their problem is their lack of clarity and often their unprofessionalism and unreliability. The main authors of the prepared book, MUDr.

Jiří Slíva (pharmacologist) and MUDr. Tomáš Fait (an experienced gynecologist and obstetrician), together with a team of co-authors, have prepared a clear and understandable book that can be a reliable guide for lay people, an endless range of over-the-counter medicines and food supplements used in gynecology.
