The Bitter Pill

Ellen Grant, Mb.Ch.B 1958

Hormonal contraception usually prevents pregnancy but is also a comprehensive health disaster. Since the 1960s progestogens and oestrogens, whether given for contraception or suppression of menopausal symptoms as HRT, have caused dramatic increases in cancers, vascular diseases, mental illnesses and immune diseases in hormone taking countries. 

Concerns about world overpopulation have prevented acceptance of the basic research of the underlying mechanisms explained in this book.
