Henry VIII, despite his six marriages, had produced no legitimate son who would live into old age. Three of the reigning Tudors (Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I) died without heirs apparent, the most tragic case being that of Mary Tudor, who went through two recorded cases of phantom pregnancy. If it were not for physical frailty and the lack of reproductive health among the Tudors, the course of history might have been different.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book concentrates on the medical downfall of the Tudors, examining their gynaecological history and medical records.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDid you know that an archival source suggests that Henry VIII may have suffered from venereal disease or a urinary tract infection? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDid you know that overlooked pictorial evidence suggests that Katharine of Aragon may have suffered from prognathism, a trait that ran through her family? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIt is generally assumed that Katharine of Aragon went through menopause by 1524, but primary sources tell a different tale. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDid Katharine of Aragon really die in the arms of her lady-in-waiting, Maria de Salinas, Lady Willoughby? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDid you know that Jane Seymour's coronation in 1537 was postponed and later cancelled because of the plague?
