| book description |

An eye-opening, no-holds-barred guide to contraception, written by campaigner, journalist and documentary-maker Kate Muir Everything You Need to Know About the Pill (but were too afraid to ask)Â is the thinking-womanâ€™s guide to contraception, bringing you answers to all those questions that have been hidden behind a veneer of misplaced shame, bad science and centuries of patriarchy.Â What's happening to my body - and my mind? Which method of contraception is best for me? Do I really need to take a pill break every three weeks?Â What about men - where's their pill?! Muir draws on interviews with the leading medical experts in the field, interlaced with her own tumultuous journey with different types of contraception and the personal stories of women from all walks of life, sharing their varied experiences and hard-earned wisdom. Muir also questions why the current medical establishment is getting contraception so wrong, as she debunks the myths and exposes the sloppy science and hysterical headlines that have had a negative impact on womenâ€™s health for the last twenty years. This ground-breaking guide is a social, cultural and scientific exploration into a criminally overlooked and under-discussed part of women's lives. It is a manifesto for change, calling for equality in healthcare and an entirely new - and long overdue - approach to womenâ€™s health.Â _________________ *Praise for Everything You Need to Know About the Menopause (But Were Too Afraid to Ask):* â€˜I have huge respect for Kate.
