Wandering Womb Pin
$10.40
This pin playfully illustrates the strange, and thankfully outdated, historical concept of hysteria. For centuries, unexplained health issues in women were attributed to a "wandering uterus." Doctors believed the uterus could move freely within the body, causing various symptoms. Thankfully, modern medicine has debunked this idea. Originally released in 2018, this pin quickly became a fan favorite, selling out almost immediately. We're excited to bring it back for those who missed out the first time. This hard enamel pin is about 1.25 inches wide and 3/4 of an inch tall and features double clasps so it doesn't go wandering. DETAILS Hard enamel pin Dimensions: 1.25 inches by 0.75 inches (3.175cm x 1.9cm) A SciShow classic pin inspired by this episode
