Pathologised. Controlled. Exploited\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn The Body Myth, feminist writer and women's health campaigner Milli Hill exposes the stories we’ve been told about being female and replaces them with a new narrative: women are powerful, strong and perfect just as we are.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom menstruation to menopause, female biology has been misunderstood, medicalised, sexualised and sold back to us as a problem to fix. The result? A world in which women doubt their own strength, knowledge and instincts — while industries profit from their insecurity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoving from the mirror to the clinic, from the clitoris to childbirth, Milli reveals how culture, medicine and history have misread women’s lives and why reclaiming a new understanding of female power is long overdue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBold, eye-opening and deeply empowering, The Body Myth invites women to see themselves differently.
