How to Not Have a Period

The beach vacation you have been looking forward to for months. The 22 hour plane ride to Tokyo. Your honeymoon. What do these things have in common?

Top 10 Health Tips for Women

She might tell you the same things that OB-GYN Alyssa Dweck, MD, co-author of V Is for Vagina, wants you to know. Consider Dweck's tips your prescription for a lifetime of wellness. 1. Zap your stress. "The biggest issue I see in most of my patients is that they have too much on their plates and want to juggle it all.
