520    The New York Times bestselling author, internationally 
       known ob/gyn, and internet superstar who has become the go
       -to expert for women's health issues now takes on a topic 
       that affects more than 72 million Americans every month, 
       bashing myths about menstruation and giving readers the 
       knowledge they need to make the best decisions for their 
       bodies.   Most women can expect to have hundreds of 
       periods in a lifetime. So why is real information so hard 
       to find? Despite its significance, most education about 
       menstruation focuses either on increasing the chances of 
       pregnancy or preventing it. And while both are crucial, 
       women deserve to know more about their bodies than just 
       what happens in service to reproduction. At a time when 
       charlatans, politicians, and even some doctors are 
       succeeding in propagating damaging misinformation and 
       disempowering women, Dr. Jen provides the antidote with 
       science, myth busting, and no-nonsense facts.   Not 
       knowing how your body works makes it challenging to 
       advocate for yourself. Consequently, many suffer in 
       silence thinking their bodies are uniquely broken, or they
       turn to disreputable sources. Blood is a practical, 
       empowering guide to what's typical, what's concerning, and
       when to seek care-recounted with expertise and frank, 
       fearless wit that have made Dr. Jen today's most trusted 
       voice in women's health.   Dr. Jen answers all your period
       -related questions, including: What exactly happens during
       menstruation? How heavy is too heavy? How much should 
       periods hurt? and provides essential information about 
       topics such as:   * The impact of stress and health on the
       menstrual cycle  * Menstrual migraines, PMS, and period 
       diarrhea (yes, it's totally normal)  * Polycystic Ovarian 
       Syndrome (PCOS) and fibroids  * Endometriosis and the 
       latest treatments  * 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  * Legitimate menstrual 
       products, and the facts behind toxic shock syndrome  Blood
       is about much more than biology. It's an all-in-one, 
       revolutionary guide that will change the way we think 
       about, talk about-and don't talk about-our bodies and our 
       well-being.
