Description

Hot Pants, long an underground classic, offers great basic sexual health information along with tried and true herbal treatments for common gynecological problems. Patriarchy sucks, the authors begin. It's robbed us of our autonomy and much of our history. We believe it's integral for women to be aware and in control of our own bodies. In that spirit, diagrams and herbal remedies teach you how to diagnose and heal many basic problems, including bladder infections, inducing your period, easing cramps and PMS, aphrodisiacs, and dealing with pregnancy. You'll learn herbal remedies to ease every stage of your menstrual cycle. This book deserves a place next to your copy of Our Bodies, Ourselves.

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
