Reviews / Votes

"Timely and insightful, Sally King exposes and challenges deeply engrained myths that distort our understanding of menstruation. With sharp scientific analysis and engaging writing, King makes complex ideas accessible, while calling for a rethink of how we approach women's health." Gemma Sharp, University of Exeter "Part re-education, part manifesto, this is a must-read for medics, social scientists and anyone who menstruates. King's evocative and thought-provoking analysis makes a compelling case for revisiting the way we think about menstrual physiology." Kathleen Riach, University of Glasgow





"Sally King cuts through millennia of misconceptions. Everyone should read this - clinicians, academics, educators, students. If you have periods or know someone who does, this book is for you." Bee Hughes, Liverpool John Moores University "This is a groundbreaking book that tackles pervasive menstrual myths with clarity, compassion, and scientific rigor; it has the power to challenge ingrained biases and pave the way for a more informed society." Heather C. Guidone, Center for Endometriosis Care





"Sally King's astutely written book grapples with the vast menstrual illiteracy in public, academic, and biomedical circles, and her analysis offers readers action for meaningful change." Saniya Ghanoui, University of Texas at El Paso
