The purpose of this book is to provide invaluable information about the biological, emotional, and social risks to women who take antipsychotics and, specifically, to address an often-unrecognized risk to women taking antipsychotics—pseudocyesis, a condition that causes a woman to feel or experience pregnancy without being pregnant.

More specifically, this piece explores a vital intersection of mental health treatment, trauma, and its gendered impacts, particularly concerning women or girls prescribed antipsychotics. It raises questions about the broader effects of these medications on reproductive health, sexuality, and emotional well-being, while also examining how trauma intersects with medication-induced effects in female born body.
