The book delves into the personal and systemic issues surrounding women's healthcare in America, illustrated through Anushay Hossain's harrowing childbirth experience. After facing severe pain and near-death during labor, Hossain embarks on a quest to uncover the pervasive medical misogyny affecting women, particularly women of color. Drawing parallels with feminist literature, it serves as a powerful call to action, urging women to challenge the status quo and advocate for transformative changes in healthcare. Meticulously researched, it highlights real women's stories and aims to inspire a revolution in women's health.
