Descripción Softcover. Condición: New. Hormonal is a familiar label for any woman exhibiting less than maximum self-control. Eleanor Morgan dismantles the stubborn taboos that exist surrounding women and their health-rejecting the idea that female bodies are mysterious, unknowable, and most importantly, in need of constant surveillance lest they go awry. Morgan rigorously investigates the modern landscape of women and health, from contraception to PMS, anxiety and depression, examining the relationship between our bodies and what goes on inside them over the course of our reproductive lives, our biochemistry, and our psychological wellbeing.<br /><br />With refreshing frankness, Morgan connects the historical stigma of the 'hysterical' woman to the edicts of the medical establishment, the #MeToo movement and more, detailing how women's pain is still systematically dismissed and coded by men. She advocates for more openness and more questioning of the systems that dictate how women inhabit their bodies and the language we use to talk about ourselves, examining why so much stigma and misinformation still exists and how we can learn to accept ourselves as we are. <br /><br /><br />'A powerful and beautifully written account of Morgan's experiences with anxiety and depression . . . courageous and compelling' Guardian on Anxiety for Beginners.

Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. 'The essential hormone handbook . . . it should be made part of the core curriculum up and down the land' STYLIST 'A must read. Informative, funny, moving and wise' JESSIE BURTON We've gotten better at talking about mental health, but we still shy away from discussing PERIODS, MISCARRIAGE, ENDOMETRIOSIS and MENOPAUSE. That results in a lack of vital understanding for women, particularly as those processes are inextricably connected to our mental health. Combining her own experiences with extensive research and expert contributions, Eleanor Morgan explores the relationship between the female body, the female mind and the ways in which women's bodies are being medicalised. HORMONAL explores everything from contraception to PMS, in relation to anxiety, depression and taboos about hysteria and the 'hormonal' woman. It is a compelling portrait of the modern landscape of women and health, showing us how to navigate stigma and misinformation. 'A personal yet scientific, subtle and often lyrical work' THE TIMES 'An essential guide in helping us truly understand our cores' VOGUE 'Both fascinating and a huge relief' GRAZIA A personal investigation into women's hormones, periods, #MeToo and hysteria. An empowering mix of feminism, memoir, psychology and biology, determined to give women control over their own bodies.
