| Zusammenfassung: | "Most of us know about as much about how the uterus and ovaries function as we do about how the liver works. Add in societal shame around the menstrual cycle and it's not surprising that misinformation is widespread. But, as women's health advocate and trusted OB-GYN Dr. Jen Gunter writes, "you don't have to think about your liver 5 days a month for 30 years, so I'd argue people should know more about the uterus." Enter Blood. In her new book, Dr. Gunter offers a clear, no-nonsense guide to reproductive anatomy and answers all the questions you never knew you had about menstrual bleeding--for example, where does the blood come from? And where does it go if you miss a period? With her expertise and trademark wit, she debunks myths and challenges patriarchal attitudes toward this natural bodily process, shedding light on the endometrium's (the uterine lining's) fascinating connection to the immune system, different cultural perceptions of menstruation, and how they affect girls and women, menstruation and trans and non-binary experiences, and more. Surprising, funny, fact-filled, Blood is an essential and empowering resource from the doctor who "takes the mystery out of women's health and replaces it with evidence-informed concrete recommendations."
