Period problems are not simply to be endured or covered up with pills – they are our body’s way of telling us that something is wrong. And ignoring t...
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Your menstrual cycle is a vital sign of your general well-being, and it is important to recognize that your period is a marker for underlying medical conditions and even chronic disease states. #2 Your period is a reflection of your genetics, lifestyle, and overall health. It is not the same for everyone, and there is a lot of variation out there. By getting comfortable with your cycle, you’ll have a better understanding of what’s going on in your body and what your symptoms mean. #3 The menstrual cycle is a natural cycle that women go through, and it is responsible for four distinct phases. As in the natural world, our bodies are constantly ebbing and flowing. #4 The first phase of your menstrual cycle is the bleeding phase, which lasts for about 3 to 7 days. It marks the start of the follicular phase, during which a region of your brain known as the hypothalamus secretes gonadotropin-releasing hormone, which instructs your pituitary gland to release follicle-stimulating hormone.

Millions of healthy women take a powerful medication every day from their mid-teens to menopause - the Pill - but few know how this drug works or the potential side effects. Contrary to cultural myth, the birth-control pill impacts on every organ and function of the body, and yet most women do not even think of it as a drug. Depression, anxiety, paranoia, rage, panic attacks - just a few of the effects of the Pill on half of the over 80% of women who pop these tablets during their lifetimes. When the Pill was released, it was thought that women would not submit to taking a medication each day when they were not sick. Now the Pill is making women sick. However, there are a growing number of women looking for non-hormonal alternatives for preventing pregnancy. In a bid to spark the backlash against hormonal contraceptives, this book asks: Why can't we criticize the Pill? ,
