Coming Off the Pill, the Patch, the Shot and other Hormonal Contraceptives: Learning How to Restore Menstrual Cycle Health and Endocrine Balance after Stopping Use of Hormonal Contraceptives Paperback – November 28, 2014

as described

Excellent collection of knowledge! I was seeking help from all angels after coming off the pill, so glad this was first on my list to healing! SM

This was a good and well researched overview of how hormonal contraception impacts the body and some idea of what can happen when you come off. However, the title suggested to me that it was more of a how to guide. While there were recommendations scattered throughout the book, it was more of a narrative than a self-help book.Also: there's a clear bias against hormonal BC and even their forms of medication. That's part of why I'm reading it but it's good to know.Honestly at this point I feel MORE overwhelmed about what to expect and how to help myself. I hope that when I'm in the midst of going off, I'll be able to refer to this but don't quite feel the organization lends itself for use as a reference guide

This book had some good advice for coming off the pill, but I had already learned much of it doing my own research about the Justisse Method online. Most of the book is women's stories, which didn't apply to me, and nutritional advice, which was ok, but I didn't need to spend $20 to get it.
