Without a doubt, the 'normal uterus' is a social construct … we are also beginning to understand that for many women – and even for some men – the uterus can look different, declare itself in different ways, and do some rather unusual things.

Introduction
The mystery of the womb, its inner workings, and its idiosyncrasies are chronically under-studied and under-appreciated.
In her 2023 book, Womb, Leah Hazard draws on her experience as a midwife and activist to unearth the history, social identity, and unexplored potential of the womb.
Through history, science, and personal anecdotes, Hazard examines how the womb has been talked about, disreputed, and mismanaged through the ages and looks to a brighter, more progressive future for those who have one.
