Description

It's easier than ever to fine-tune our health. We can access the latest science in diet and exercise to inform our decisions. Yet our knowledge and provision when it comes to contraception is woefully inadequate.

The choices we make with our contraception can have wide-ranging consequences for our health, and yet nearly 80 per cent of women suffer with side effects, often because we don't know about the full set of options available. From being offered the full range of brands of pill, to trying to get an appointment to get a coil fitted or removed, choosing the right option is a frequently bewildering journey, littered with trial and error and misinformation. And then once we do find a method that suits us, we are often left in the dark as our needs change over the course of our lives: if we have children, or develop health issues, or when we start to go through the menopause.

Based on the invaluable advice from the thousands of users of The Lowdown's website, the medical expertise of their in-house team, and the very latest scientific research from scientists around the world, CONTRACEPTION is a book for anyone who wants to take control of their health choices. With zero bias or BS, this book will give readers the clarity we desperately need.
