Books

Here are some respected, popular books to browse in alphabetical order, with Dutch followed by English. As always, we encourage you to order from a local, independent bookseller!

In NL:

Claim je Cyclus, Alexandra Pope & Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer
“Een baanbrekend boek over je menstruatie, hormonen en je maandelijkse cyclus. Het idee dat je altijd maar op een constant niveau moet presteren doet vrouwen geen recht. We hébben nu eenmaal die maandelijkse cyclus en we zíjn iedere maand ongesteld! Er is een andere weg: leven in het ritme van je cyclus. De auteurs laten je nadenken over de vraag waarom je je hormonen en menstruatie niet zou eren in plaats van ze te negeren. Want als je eenmaal die keuze maakt zul je ontdekken dat er een grote kracht in je huist. Dat betekent dat je onderscheid leert maken tussen de periode van sterke wil en controle en de tijd van kwetsbaarheid in intimiteit. Je leert je innerlijke seizoenen kennen en je ontdekt hoeveel energie er vrijkomt als je de juiste periode van de maand inplant voor organiseren, plannen, feesten en terugblikken. Deze manier van leven is niet nieuw, maar in onze 24-uurs economie waarin constant op een hoog moeten presteren de norm is, wel ondergesneeuwd.”

De complete HST gids, Ellie Cannon
“De overgang was jarenlang iets waar vrouwen maar mee moesten dealen, nu is er eindelijk meer ruimte voor hulp via hormoonbehandelingen. In De complete HST-gids geeft Dr. Ellie Cannon uitleg over de voor- en nadelen van deze behandeling, en leert je alles wat je moet weten over de overgang.
Dit boek geeft heldere, nuchtere en onpartijdige informatie en tips over de voor- en nadelen van deze behandeling.
Tijdens de (peri)menopauze neemt de productie van oestrogeen en progesteron af. Deze hormonale schommelingen kunnen leiden tot klachten als stress, stemmingswisselingen, depressie, prikkelbaarheid, slechte concentratie en geheugenverlies. Met hormoonsuppletietherapie (HST) kan dit hormoonverlies worden gecompenseerd en kunnen de klachten worden verminderd.”

De Cyclus Strategie, Maisie Hill
“In De Cyclus Strategie laat bestsellerauteur Maisie Hill zien hoe het samenwerken met je hormonen je dagelijks leven kan veranderen. De Nederlandse editie van Period Power.
De bestseller De Cyclus Strategie van Maisie Hill leert je samenwerken met je hormonen. Het biedt een no-nonsense uitleg van wát er nu exact in je lichaam gebeurt elke maand en hoe je elke fase van je cyclus in je voordeel kan laten werken. Na het lezen van dit revolutionaire boek ervaar je je hormonen niet langer als een last maar als een kracht, en zal je je afvragen waarom niemand je dit eerder heeft verteld.”

Grip op je Cyclus, Lara Briden
“Heb je vaak last van menstruatie- en hormoongerelateerde klachten? En is je cyclus daardoor een bron van stress? In Grip op je cyclus legt natuurgeneeskundig arts Lara Briden helder uit wat je hier zelf aan kunt doen op het gebied van voeding, leefstijl en suppletie. Je leert ook over de effecten van hormonale anticonceptie en hoe je het beste bij je huisarts hormoongerelateerde klachten aankaart.”

Menopauze, alles wat je dokter je niet vertelt, Barbara Havenith en John R. Lee
Het biedt uitgebreide informatie over de menopauze, inclusief veranderingen in menstruatiepatronen.

Be Period Positive, Chella Quint
“This informative, irreverent, and absorbing book covers all your period-related questions – why they’re taboo (and needn’t be) and how to navigate the whole bleeding thing, from first periods to fertility, euphemisms to uteruses, menstrual products to menopause. Let’s get period positive. It’s about bloody time.
A frank, funny, and fascinating menstruation guide from Period Positive movement founder and menstrual researcher, Chella Quint, this book offers:
– A practical, science-backed guide to your period with arresting infographics, and anatomical diagrams
– Answers to all your period-related questions, exploring topics like the functions and effects of hormones, when periods “normal” or “abnormal,” hormonal birth control, sex, fertility, pregnancy
– Explanations of common female health conditions such as PCOS and endometriosis”

Menopause Manifesto, Dr. Jen Gunter
“Dr. Jen Gunter, Canadian OB/GYN and the internet’s most fearless advocate for women’s health, brings us empowerment through knowledge by countering stubborn myths and misunderstandings about menopause with hard facts, real science, fascinating historical perspective, and expert advice. The only thing predictable about menopause is its unpredictability. Factor in widespread misinformation, a lack of research, and the culture of shame around women’s bodies, and it’s no wonder women are unsure what to expect during the menopause transition and beyond.
Frank and funny, Dr. Jen debunks misogynistic attitudes and challenges the over-mystification of menopause to reveal everything you really need to know about:
* Perimenopause * Hot flashes * Sleep disruption * Sex and libido * Depression and mood changes * Skin and hair issues * Outdated therapies * Breast health * Weight and muscle mass * Health maintenance screening * And much more!”

New Blood: Third wave feminism and the politics of menstruation, Chris Bobel
New Blood offers a fresh interdisciplinary look at feminism-in-flux. For over three decades, menstrual activists have questioned the safety and necessity of feminine care products while contesting menstruation as a deeply entrenched taboo. Chris Bobel shows how a little-known yet enduring force in the feminist health, environmental, and consumer rights movements lays bare tensions between second- and third-wave feminisms and reveals a complicated story of continuity and change within the women’s movement.

Out for Blood: Essays on menstruation and resistance, Breanne Fahs
Finalist for the 2016 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award in the Women’s Studies category/Winner of the 2017 Distinguished Publication Award presented by the Association for Women in Psychology.
Transporting the reader to worlds in which Komodo dragons prey on menstruating women, artists prowl the streets of Spain in blood-stained pants, and the myths of women bleeding in synchrony with each other are drawn and redrawn, these eleven essays on menstruation and resistance evoke thought-provoking tensions between silence and confrontation, shame and rebellion, and compliance and disobedience. Fusing together gender and feminist theory, critical body studies, political activism, and menstrual anarchy, Breanne Fahs illuminates the troubling omissions of menstrual coming-of-age narratives in the museum, the outdated terminology of “feminine hygiene,” and the moral panics about blood that erupts from in and outside of our bathrooms, classrooms, and cell phones. Borrowing from a multitude of voices—single moms, trans teenagers, zine makers, menstrual artists, college students, tour guides, French philosophers, and culture jammers—Fahs forcefully argues for a new culture of menstruation, one where the joys, rhythms, and controversies of menstrual cycles collides with the defiant, shameless, and bold new possibilities of menstrual resistance.

Period Power, Maisie Hill
“Period Power is a profound but practical blueprint for aligning daily life with the menstrual cycle, to give women a no-nonsense explanation of what the hell happens to their hormones every month and how they can use each phase to its full advantage. The hormones of the menstrual cycle profoundly influence our energy, mood and behavior, but all too often we’re taught that our hormones make us unreliable, moody bitches, or that it’s our lot in life to put up with women’s problems. Maisie Hill, a women’s health practitioner, knows the power of working with the menstrual cycle and refuses to accept this theory. Instead, Maisie believes that our hormones are there to serve us and, if utilized correctly, can be used to help you get what you want out of life. Yes, we are hormonal, and thats a very good thing. This revolutionary book reveals everything you need to know about taking control of your menstrual cycle and outlines the Cycle Strategy to help us perform at our best, throughout our cycle.”

Period Repair Manual, Lara Briden
“Period Repair Manual is your guide to better periods using natural treatments such as diet, nutritional supplements, herbal medicine, and natural hormones. It contains advice and tips for every age and situation. If you have a period (or want a period), then this book is for you.”

Pussypedia: A Comprehensive Guide, Zoe Mendelson (Author), Maria Conejo (Illustrator), Heather Corinna (Foreword)
“Written by the creators of the popular website, this rigorously fact-checked, accessible, and fully illustrated guide is essential for anyone with a pussy. There is still a shocking lack of accurate, accessible information about pussies and many esteemed medical sources seem to contradict each other. Pussypedia solves that with extensive reviews of peer-reviewed science that address old myths, confusing inconsistencies, and the influence of gender narratives on scientific research––always in simple, joyful language. Through over 30 chapters, Pussypedia not only gives the reader information, but teaches them how to read science, how to consider information in its context, and how to accept what we don’t know rather than search for conclusions. It also weaves in personal anecdotes from the authors and their friends––sometimes funny, sometimes sad, often cringe-worthy, and always extremely personal––to do away with shame and encourage curiosity, exploration, and agency.

A gift for your shy niece, your angsty teenager, your confused boyfriend, or yourself.”

Taking Charge of Your Fertility, Toni Weschler
Provides information about fertility awareness methods and how they interact with the body’s natural cycles.

The Wisdom of Menopause: Creating Physical and Emotional Health During the Change, Christiane Northrup

Trans Bodies, Trans Selves, Laura Erickson-Schroth
Provides information on various aspects of transgender health, including the effects of hormone therapy on the body and menstrual cycles.

We Need to Talk About Vaginas, Dr. Allison K. Rodgers
“Do you know the difference between a vagina and a vulva? If you’re not sure, We Need to Talk About Vaginas by TikToker Dr. Allison K. Rodgers could be for you! There are lots of reasons why we don’t talk about vaginas. It can be embarrassing to discuss your vagina with your parents, we can feel confused about the changes that are happening to our bodies, and nobody else talks about vaginas—so why should you? But KNOWLEDGE IS POWER people! The more we know about our vaginas and vulvas the better equipped we will be to deal with our bodies in the future. In this beautifully illustrated book Dr. Allison K. Rodgers simply explains everything from why we have periods to sex and consent in the age of social media. You’ll learn the correct names for everything, realize pubic hair is TOTALLY NORMAL, and discover the magical self-cleaning properties of vaginas.”
