'''Gynopedia''' is an open resource for sexual, reproductive and women's health care across the globe. Our mission is to provide information that is practical and non-judgmental so that users can make informed decisions. It’s a wiki, so everyone is invited to contribute, and please, please do! The basic idea is that you search for a city -- for example, New York City -- and Gynopedia provides information based on that location. So, let’s say you want to buy tampons in Seoul, or find an LGBT-friendly gynecologist in Istanbul, or you need the morning after pill in Lima. Well, Gynopedia is the resource for you. | '''Gynopedia''' is an open resource for sexual, reproductive and women's health care across the globe.

We organize information based on location. So, for example, check out the [[New York City]] page. You'll find practical information related to contraception, the morning after pill, STD tests, gynecological exams, pregnancy, abortion, counseling, insurance and more. You'll also learn about costs, any social/legal issues, and any special recommendations from our users. If you have any information to share, we wholeheartedly welcome your contribution. It's easy to create a profile and get started. We also encourage editing and moderation, if you happen to find any information that seems incorrect or outdated. This is a community, and we want lots of people to get involved! | We organize information based on location. So, for example, check out the [[New York City]] page.
