The Psilocybin Handbook For Women

The Psylocybin Handbook demystifies magic mushrooms while speaking to those assigned female at birth—with zero mansplaining or bro-isms. The Handbook guides readers through sex-specific questions about how psilocybin affects menstrual migraines, endometriosis, premenstrual dysphoric disorder,  hormones, sexual health, and more, but it is also a great resource for everyone, discussing the history, medicinal and recreational benefits, research, legal issues, and practices—like microdosing and trip sitting—around psilocybin. Written by Jennifer Chesak, an award-winning freelance science and medical journalist, editor, and fact-checker.
