Our mission is to provide practical, stigma-free information so that users can feel empowered and make informed decisions. The basic idea is that you search for a city -- for example, [[New York City]] or [[Seoul]] -- and Gynopedia provides free information on birth control, the morning after pill, STI tests, menstrual products, gynecologists, obstetricians, prenatal care, abortion access, crisis support, and more in that city. So, let’s say you need a low-cost clinic in New York, or an LGBTQ-friendly gynecologist in Bangkok, or the morning after pill in Lima. Well, Gynopedia is the resource for you.
