Doctora Ribes

Hello! I’m Myriam Ribes, although you may also know me as Doctora Ribes: a gynaecologist, sexologist, health educator and writer.

For more than thirty years, I have listened to women in my consulting room and talked with them about everything that affects their health, sexuality and wellbeing. This includes the questions we still find difficult to ask, the concerns we keep to ourselves and those things our bodies do without asking permission.

In my books, I combine medicine, clinical experience, personal stories and humour to explain complex subjects in a clear, approachable and practical way. Without frightening or judging anyone, and without turning every stage of life into an illness.

I have written about sexual desire, pleasure and conscious breathing. My aim is to help you understand what is happening to you, explore what you can do and provide the information you need to make your own decisions about your body and health.

Science, awareness, clarity and zero drama.

I also write romance novels under my own name, Myriam Ribes, including Agua de mar para corazones heridos.

I live and work in Menorca, an island that finds its way, in one form or another, into almost everything I write.
