Initial Thoughts: There aren't many actionable steps here. A large portion of the book is dedicated to explaining why periods shouldn't be taboo and why period pain and complications can be considered "common" but shouldn't be considered "normal." This is all uplifting but not overly helpful if you already agree. Then there's the standard advice about having an overall healthy lifestyle (sleep, exercise, diet, mindfulness) to help your problems and only a single chapter with specific steps about what to do for problems like endo or menopause. (Weirdly there was not a generic "painful cramps" section.) The book otherwise does largely feel like an ad for the author's own products, services, and apps--which you basically would have to check out if you actually want to do something about the problems you're experiencing because the book itself isn't that detailed.
