TAKE THE VAGINA iQ QUIZWords are Powerful.
So, why do we (women included) often use such unserious words when we talk about our bodies?
Do we have to?
It’s time to ask: why are “vagina” and “vulva” and “menopause” and “labia” flagged and stigmatized in common conversation and media?
It's time to
RAISE
YOUR
VAGINA iQ
We’re not against nicknames,
we love them and use them! But our
VAGINAS AREN'T JUST A PUNCH LINE.
- the lips above should.
- respect the labia below.
Women are powerful:

Understanding the vagina
There’s hardly another body part as misunderstood—and shrouded in mystery—as the vagina. Stunningly intricate, many women (and most men) go their whole lives without a true knowledge of how the vagina works—its various elements, its processes and attitudes. For instance, what most call the vagina is actually the vulva, which is the proper term for all the external beauties: labia, clitoris, urethral opening. For women especially, it may surprise how empowering an intuitive sense of proper terminology can be. It allows you to communicate more effectively with your health care professional, take control of your health, and become closer with your own body. When your vagina iQ gets higher, so does your confidence—women who speak like a pH-D often feel like one, too.
The daily cleanser of your dreams.
Feminine health starts here: ritual showering or bathing with a boric acid foam wash so soft, so instantly comforting.
pH balanced to perfection. Offers odor-neutralizing boric acid with every cleanse. Leaves your labia with lavender-kissed freshness.
It’s no wonder your vulva luvs it so much.

Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor black tobacco farmer whose cells--taken without her knowledge in 1951--became one of the most important tools in medicine, vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, and more. Henrietta's cells have been bought and sold by the billions, yet she remain virtually unknown, and her family can't afford health insurance. This phenomenal New York Times bestseller tells a riveting story of the collision between ethics, race, and medicine; of scientific discovery and faith healing; and of a daughter consumed with questions about the mother she never knew.
