Women’s healthcare is in crisis. It’s time to empower women to fight for the care they deserve.

Female health issues have been an afterthought and sidelined for too long. It’s Probably Nothing exposes the truth about how women seeking help with their health have been repeatedly failed.

Drawing on her own experience of being dismissed, undiagnosed and misdiagnosed, Naga Munchetty explores the devastating outcome of decades of ingrained medical misogyny. She hears from dozens of women and their loved ones who have sought care only to be told that their symptoms are normal or all in their head. These testimonies highlight the consequences of not being heard, which has left so many living in pain, with chronic and life-changing conditions.

This book illustrates the common problems women face and offers insights from doctors and experts on what we’re entitled to at every stage. It will arm women and their loved ones with the information and confidence to successfully advocate for the best health outcomes.

Women want to be listened to. Women want to be healthy. Women deserve to live their best lives now. It’s Probably Nothing highlights the urgent need for change.

‘Sizzling with rage and disbelief, here’s to a much-needed women’s health revolution.’ Emma Barnett 'For too long women and their health needs have been overlooked and neglected causing immeasurable suffering. Naga unpicks this fundamental flaw with our health care system and exposes it for what it really is. She is fighting for and representing all women, spearheading the change towards equality in healthcare.' Dr Naomi Potter 'A passionate and empowering call for women’s understanding of their bodies to be respected, validated, and taken seriously.'

Dr Nighat Arif 'This book will inspire women to be stronger advocates for themselves so they can access the healthcare they both need and deserve.' Dr Louise Newson 'This book will give you the knowledge and confidence to challenge, ask questions and obtain information you need to make your own choices about your health. I wish I’d had it to read a decade ago.’ Dr Linda Gask
