Description
Dr. Sarah Hill (@sarahehillphd) is a leading researcher in the dynamic and rapidly expanding field of evolutionary psychology, and the author of This Is Your Brain on Birth Control: The Surprising Science of Women, Hormones, and the Law of Unintended Consequences.
What We Discuss with Dr. Sarah Hill:
How hormonal birth control affects women -- and the world around them -- in ways we are just now beginning to understand.
Why a woman will be attracted to a certain partner while taking hormonal birth control -- and the problems this could cause for a relationship when she stops taking it.
On a hormonal contraceptive, a woman is twice as likely to have attempted suicide as a woman who was not on a hormonal contraceptive.
Why, in spite of its drawbacks, Sarah credits the pill to her own ability to achieve a doctorate and career success.
Why these new findings should be a rallying cry for women to demand more information from science about how their bodies and brains work and to advocate for better research.
And much more...
