While the Pill is taken by most women and girls at some stage in their lives, few realise the disastrous side-effects. Clear links have been made to depression, nausea, headaches and migraines,
as well as a loss of libido.
Contrary to popular belief, it is not failsafe – around 2 in 10 women conceive while taking the Pill, while others experience difficulties conceiving after coming off the drug. There are also nutritional concerns which can affect the health of subsequent children long after women have stopped taking it.
Written in a gentle, engaging style and full of real women’s stories, this book gives women true informed choice about chemical contraception exploring side effects, alternatives to chemical contraception and natural ways to heal menstrual problems. |
