For over 50 years, the birth control pill has been one of the most widely used methods of contraception. It was celebrated as a liberation of female sexuality and enabled many women to choose their own contraception. However, for just as long, women have also been struggling with unpleasant or even harmful side effects, about which they were often not informed beforehand.
Isabel Morelli brings clarity to the topic with this book. She traces the development of the pill and contextualizes its social significance, risks, and side effects. What exactly does the pill do to the body? How does it disrupt the hormonal balance? How does it affect the natural cycle and thyroid function? And how does it impact the liver and intestines? And what hormone-free contraceptive alternatives are available if I want to avoid the pill?
