Womens Health Quotes

“It's a bittersweet feeling to finally name what ails you after so long. On the one hand it's a relief because you can finally take action. On the other, endometriosis can feel overwhelming. There isn't enough useful information about it, nothing that encapsulates its all-encompassing nature or defines the all-involving path to recovery - except this book which is mind-blowingly relatable, relieving, and helpful.”

“Endo doesn't just affect the pelvic region. The body's response to the inflammation it causes sensitizes the central nervous system, and if you don't know what's going on - as I didn't - this sensitization ***** with your head. If your head's not right, there's a good chance you're in distress. This is where endo crosses the line from a physical ailment to an emotional one too. -- from the forward, written by Bojana Novakovic”

“Choosing to spend energy on your relationships will be much more fulfilling than wasting it on unnecessary clutter and accumulating "things" that in the long run don't really matter anyway. Most of us will not be canonized in history books nor have monuments built in our honor because of what we owned or the things we accomplished at work. Our legacy will be found in the lives and endeavors that were enriched while we were passing through this life.”

“The technology exists for a male contraceptive pill. We have the drugs to switch off testosterone and prevent sperm production. These drugs have never gone to market because developers know that men would never take something like that. Men would never agree to switch off their hormones. They would never put up with the side effects such as depression and low libido. And, honestly, why should they put up with it? Why should women?”

“You may have to shun the world's definitions of material as well as personal success. But don't be afraid to do it your way, to personalize your life. After all, it's your life, isn't it?”

“Let me be very clear. A prostitute in a brothel deserves the exact same justice as a virgin living in her parents' house with her nannies. The amount of shelter a woman receives in life is not indicative of the justice she is owed in death. The worth of one's passing is not framed and bought by the shelter given her in life. We are all born differently and into different circumstances. Any one of us could have become a prostitute if only born differently. I refuse to lean to the notion that any woman's untimely death may be put on trial in accordance to her living.”
