Why people recommend it
Sarah Hill's "This Is Your Brain on Birth Control" explores the surprising science of women's hormones and the unintended consequences of the birth control pill on behavior, psychology, and relationships. David Buss recommended the book on "The Joe Rogan Experience," praising his former student's research and noting its relevance to understanding how hormonal contraceptives influence women's mating choices. Steven Bartlett also referenced the book on "The Diary Of A CEO," noting how the pill changes various aspects of life, while Chris Williamson discussed the title on "Modern Wisdom," sharing how his perspective on hormonal birth control shifted significantly after speaking with the author. Dr. Robert King later appeared on "Modern Wisdom" to reference Sarah Hill's work while analyzing the biological mechanisms of the female body. On "The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast," Jordan Peterson examined the first chapter of the book alongside Dr. Sarah Hill, using the text to explore broader questions about female identity and the widespread impacts of hormonal medications. Through these podcast appearances, the book has become a key reference point for discussions surrounding the intersection of endocrinology, modern relationships, and women's health choices.
