Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Is Menstruation Obsolete argues that regular monthly bleeding is not the 'natural' state of women, and that it actually places them at risk of several medical conditions of varying severity.

Consequently, they often suffer from clinical disorders related to menstruation: anemia, endometriosis, and PMS, just to name a few. The authors encourage readers to recognize what has gone previously unnoticed that this monthly discomfort is simply not obligatory. They present compelling evidence that the suppression of menstruation is a viable option for women today, and that it can be easily attained through the use of birth control pills. In fact, they reveal that contraceptive manufacturers, knowing that many women equate menstruation with femininity and that without monthly bleeding would fear that they were pregnant, engineered pill dosage regimens to ensure the continuation of their cycles.

Is Menstruation Obsolete offers women a fresh view of menstruation, providing them with the information they need to make progressive choices about their health. This is a message whose time has come.…
