Hormonal
una guía esencial sobre el cuerpo, la salud mental y por qué debemos ser escuchadas
Morgan, Eleanor
"It's the hormones." Often used to dismiss and simplify the endless ways a woman's body affects her mind, this phrase epitomizes the vast misinformation and stigma that still hangs over female biology and its relationship to mental health. Determined to dismantle the clichés related to the reproductive life of women, from the idealization of menstruation to the cold medicalization of biological processes, the journalist Eleanor Morgan explores concepts such as premenstrual syndrome, menstruation from a current and demanding point of view , miscarriage, contraception, endometriosis or menopause and how these experiences affect mental and emotional life. Both critics and the media have enthusiastically received Hormonal for addressing a subject that is still absent from cultural discourse, too often burdened with the contemptuous cliché of female "hysteria", and for denouncing the cultural, political and social factors that convince us, still today, that our body does not belong to us.
