It's Probably Nothing - Critical Conversations on the Women's Health Crisis

...or it could be everything. Throughout history, women''s pain and health issues have often been dismissed and viewed simply as an innate part of being female. Whether blamed on a wandering womb, witchcraft or still, to this day, being ''all in our heads'' - women''s health has been consistently misunderstood. As a result women have, and still are, missing out on receiving the healthcare they deserve. In ''It''s Probably Nothing'' , Naga Munchetty explores the difficulties of being heard, diagnosed and treated. She writes candidly about her own experience of poor care and speaks to women directly affected by undiagnosed and untreated health issues. Speaking to doctors and experts at every step of the way, Naga will uncover what people need to know and ask for when advocating for themselves and their loved ones. Women deserve to be heard and have the healthcare they need to live full lives. This book places much overdue focus on how the system has been built without women in mind and the urgent need to balance the scales. It''s the book you''ll want to press into everyone''s hands.
