It argues that women doctors were pivotal in developing a holistic approach to family planning and transmitting this knowledge across borders, playing a more prominent role in shaping scientific and medical knowledge than previously acknowledged. The book locates women doctors' involvement within the changing landscape of national and international reproductive politics. Illuminating women doctors' agency in the male-dominated field of medicine, this book reveals their practical engagement with birth control and later family planning clinics in Britain, their participation in the development of the international movement of birth control and family planning and their influence on French doctors. Drawing on a wide range of archived and published medical materials, Rusterholz sheds light on the strategies British female doctors used and the alliances they made to put forward their medical agenda and position themselves as experts and leaders in birth control and family planning research and practice.This book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 5, Gender equality. 410 0$aSocial histories of medicine. 606 $aFamily planning$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWomen in medicine$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWomen's health services$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y20th century 610 $aGender equality. 610 $abirth control. 610 $acontraception. 610 $acontraceptive technologies. 610 $agender. 610 $ainfertility. 610 $amedicalisation. 610 $aprofessionalisation. 610 $asexual counselling. 610 $atransnational. 610 $awomen doctors. 615 0$aFamily planning$xHistory 615 0$aWomen in medicine$xHistory 615 0$aWomen's health services$xHistory 700 $aRusterholz$b Caroline$01347878 801 0$bN$T 801 1$bN$T 801 2$bOCLCO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996552361803316 996 $aWomen's medicine$93084721 997 $aUNISA
