THE PILL

Changes your brain

Can increase your risk of depression

Hormonal birth control is taken by millions of women around the world every day. Yet until recently we knew very little about how the Pill affects the non-reproductive systems of the female body, because research on these other systems was conducted almost exclusively on men. In her trailblazing book, Dr Sarah Hill uses the latest science to reveal how the Pill is changing women and the world, for better and worse. She puts the power back in your hands to make smarter, more informed choices about your health and your hormones.

Review

That book was so exciting. I learn a lot of things about my own body that I didn’t know (my body is fantastic!)

It’s easy to read as she uses the language of every day, some doodles and charts, and a lot of humor. It’s a well-documented book with a lot of facts that are sometimes difficult to accept; however, they are real.

This book should be available to every young woman to have all the keys to choose their birth control.
