FDA: For Women

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has a site just for women. Here's an excerpt:

"In their daily lives, women use many products that are regulated by the FDA including medicines, cosmetics, pregnancy kits, microwaves, pet foods, and vaccines. Throughout its 100-year history, FDA has been committed to providing women with up-to-date information on all of the products that it regulates. Check the links in this section for information on women's health topics as well as news about product recalls, safety warnings, and other FDA activities."
