From the author:

I don’t see anything uncomfortable in talking about intimate topics. I talk about vaginas and birth control the way other people talk about their favorite way to make coffee or the TV show they couldn't stop watching all weekend—it's all part of the normal routine for me, and I can sometimes talk about such topics for hours.
Few of us get a detailed explanation of how the human body works, whether at school or elsewhere. And for a long time, I was certainly among the majority. If you have a nun teaching your health class, you don't ask about everything that comes to mind. Right?
Before I started medical school, I had a lot of questions I didn't know the answers to—there was just no place where I could safely get them—which left me with a lot of misunderstandings and doubts. I remember how I longed to ask someone those taboo questions and receive accurate, medically sound answers—without being judged.
At work, I try every day to make my patients feel like this is exactly the kind of place they belong. I also try to create this atmosphere on social media, where I spend a lot of time educating people and debunking myths.
