Description

If you are a woman that wonders if things could be done differently at the gynecologist's office, then this may be just the group for you.

We are a group critical of the highly valued pelvic exam in this society as we do not believe that womanhood is a disease.

Eventhough there are already since years non-invasive, more accurate alternatives invented to check for the HPV virus, these tests are never being offered to women. In the meanwhile women are still placed in the stirrups and left behind in the dark about these innovative tests that could spare them the unnecessary humilation.

That's why we want to offer women more information about the choices they can make that are truly benefitting their health by exchanging articles/websites on the subject that increase our awareness of existing alternatives and scientific facts about gynecological matters.

The group also aims to make women feel secure and selfconfident again of their bodies, instead of being afraid of it. Several women have thanked us before because they gained so much more selfconfidence over their bodies and will no longer tolerate their bodies to be violated in the name of science.
