I'm a guy thats perfectly happy riding on women's saddles and my road bike has a high performance woman's saddle on it at the moment although my utility bikes have regular saddles on them. You don't NEED to change it. Just ride it to start with and see how you feel about it. In all honesty it just MAY be the saddle you need to start with and as you develop you will change to a harder saddle. Until you have done at least several hundred miles on it don't change it.
