About this item
Detailed information on birth control, STIs, emergency contraception, and more: a guide to what today's young women need to know about their bodies, from a compassionate, experienced practitioner. Access to reproductive healthcare is no longer guaranteed, and information on the internet is increasingly unreliable, so it's more crucial than ever to be armed with the knowledge to make informed decisions about reproductive health. In It's Your Body, Dena Moes provides a compassionate and informative roadmap to the complex landscape of reproductive health. She explores topics ranging from birth control methods, emergency contraception, and STIs to consent and safe abortion access. Helpful graphs and diagrams make information easy to digest, while thoughtful journal prompts encourage readers to reflect on newfound knowledge, feelings about a changing body, and self-care.
