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 female body, because research 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.

How the Pill Changes Everything
By Sarah E. Hill
Review by Kazia
Sarah E. Hill achieves with this book the impressive feat of being terrifying but not in a scare-mongering, fascinating in a gut-turning way, and somehow keeps it incredibly easy to understand for a book on biological and neurological processes. This is a book I wish I had access to as a teenager. I want to magically put this book in the hands of anyone who is on the pill, considering the pill, or even those who simply have loved ones on the pill. Hill expertly highlights all the things we should know about how birth control pills can affect us and does so with an enjoyable (in my opinion) number of bad jokes sprinkled in. This book champions the notion that we should all be empowered to make informed decisions about what is right for ourselves. I hope Hill's work inspires others to dig into this important topic. An essential read!
