DIY Depo is Not Reproductive Justice

DIY Depo is Not Reproductive Justice

Holy Hormones Journal: This is one DIY that could cause you to DIE - physically, mentally, or emotionally. It may be easy and convenient to use - but the shot can have many adverse side effects.  And once it is in your bloodstream - all you can do is wait for three months until it wanes. “Depo Provera (made by the Pfizer Corporation), the most deadly contraceptive (according to the FDA), is … [Read more...]

Postpartum Suicide – Why?

April 8, 2018 by Leslie Carol Botha Leave a Comment

Postpartum Suicide – Why?

Holy Hormones Journal:  We can no longer ignore the fact that hormonal birth control may indeed be behind perinatal depression, and anxiety. We can no longer ignore the fact that women going into pregnancy do not have the nutritional status to maintain their health as well as the health of their developing fetus. We can no longer ignore that fact that maternal mortality in the United States is … [Read more...]

Mental Health and Pregnancy – Due to Birth Control?

Mental Health and Pregnancy – Due to Birth Control?

Holy Hormones Journal: - Pretty compelling picture right? What do you think this artist had in mind - women bringing children into a world that is not our reality - that is crumbling around us? That is one thought - and certainly in some parts of the world this is applicable. However, chances are this is not the entire story - even though data and stats show that women are more abused during … [Read more...]

What You Really Need to Know About Depo Provera

  The Depo shot; aka the birth control shot; aka the birth control vaccine. Holy Hormones Journal: Since I hear from so many women struggling on Depo - see article and comments here - "Depo Provera Withdrawal – A Woman’s Worst Nightmare," I have taken the time to compile credible links where I get my information to respond to the hundreds of women who struggle on Depo and coming off of … [Read more...]

Birth Control – Suicide and Informed Consent

Birth Control – Suicide and Informed Consent

  Holy Hormones Journal:  As I have mentioned before - birth control is the largest uncontrolled experiment in medical history. Sadly, much of the information coming out today in research and studies was documented in the 1970 Nelson Pill Hearings - the Senate hearings held on the risks associated with the birth control pill. Too many women are prescribed birth control and then in a … [Read more...]

Drop in Teen Pregnancies Due to IUD Sterilization

Drop in Teen Pregnancies Due to IUD Sterilization

  Holy Hormones Journal: Called a public-health home run - IUDs are being administered to low-income teen girls in Colorado to reduce teen pregnancy and abortions. Not sure about you - but somehow this sounds like eugenics. And if a girl has not sexually active, and is inserted with an IUD - it also sounds like a legal form of rape.  We are not teaching these girls the values they need to … [Read more...]

Study: Mammograms Ineffective in Reducing Deaths

Study: Mammograms Ineffective in Reducing Deaths

  Holy Hormones Journal: How can flattening our breasts and irradiating them be beneficial? I think mammograms have had their run- too many women injured with a higher risk of developing cancer - and too many breasts removed because of overdiagnosis. Time to stop fighting the patriarchal fake "war on cancer" - and to go back to the woman's way of healing. It's Time to End Mammograms, … [Read more...]
