Gynopedia is an open resource wiki for sexual, reproductive, and women's health care across the globe. Our mission is to provide practical, nonjudgmental 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 and treatment, menstrual products, gynecologists, obstetricians, prenatal care, abortion access, counseling resources, 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.

How do we get all this information? Contributions from real people, along with research and community outreach. So, we would love if you can contribute! You don't need to create an account to contribute. Simply search for a city, click "Edit," and then add information. You can let us know which pharmacies, clinics, or gynecologists worked out for you (or any to avoid). You can let us know any local taboos or customs that are important to consider. Share your local wisdom and help people around the world!

Here's a video to help you get started.

Since this is a wiki, no page is ever "complete" -- all pages should be updated and improved over time. However, if you would like to review which pages have been created so far, we invite you to check out our Gynopedia Index.

Are you interested in helping the project as a volunteer? We're always looking for more translators, researchers, moderators, and fact-checkers. If this sounds appealing to you, please reach out via email (gynopediawiki@gmail.com) and we'll work to find a good fit.

We also also accept donations via our Donate page.
