A thorough and classic examination on tried and true herbal treatments for common gynecological problems, as well as great basic sexual health info. It begins, "Patriarchy sucks. It's robbed us of our autonomy and much of our history. We believe it's integral for women to be aware an in control of our own bodies." Diagrams and herbal remedies teach you how to diagnose and heal many basic problems from bladder infections to inducing your period to ease cramps to even dealing with pregnancy. Learn herbal remedies to ease every stage of the menstrual cycle. There's references to further reading, descriptions of herbs, and even a section on aphrodisiacs. The sections include: Body Mapping (in brief), About Menstruation, Love in the Age of Aids, 35 years of fertility, STDs and Other Aliens, The Ovaries and the Uterus, Aphrodisiacs, How to Prepare and Use Herbs, Picking Your Own Herbs, Herbal Properties and Dosages, Interesting Reading, Useful Addresses. This book deserves to sit next to your copy of Our Bodies, Our Selves.

Industry Reviews

"Hot Pantz provides readers with an understanding of anatomy, recipes to conquer yeast infections and hormonal imbalances, an extensive glossary of self-healing herbs, a list of aphrodisiacs, and it provides instructions on how to give foot massages that will alleviate cramps! I can't tell you how often I consult this zine, or how excited I've been to share information from this zine with a friend in need." --Bitch Magazine

"Hot Pantz, the DIY gynecology zine that's been on the bookshelf of every savvy riot wiccan and herbal grrrl since it was first published in 1994. If there was one object I'd like to place lovingly in the hands of every woman I meet, it's this guide to, as the authors put it, "knowing more about your cunt than your doctor does." With herbal recipes for everything from treating STIs to brewing aphrodesiacs, it's a well-researched, clearly-written, non-condescending booklet that has helped me, at least, feel like my "area" isn't a foreign country that I have to learn a whole new language to visit." --Active Distribution
