Summary

The menopause is a completely natural, normal life event, but a lack of information exists around how best to manage it. Using the latest evidence and her own experience, GP and menopause specialist Dr Louise Newson has created a one-stop guide to give you the facts, bust the myths and help make choices on how to have your best possible menopause. Includes an easy-to-understand guide to signs, symptoms and health implications of the menopause, advice on holistic treatments and why it’s time to rethink hormone replacement therapy (HRT), tips on getting the best out of your medical appointment, support with your menopause at work and home, plus coping strategies for family and friends.

GP and menopause specialist Dr Louise Newson runs her own menopause and wellbeing centre in Stratford-upon-Avon. An experienced medical writer, editor and media commentator, she founded the popular My Menopause Doctor website to help women and health professionals access up-to-date, accurate information.

Super useful

This is a very concise and to the point guide book to women living in the UK. It explains menopause in simple terms and explains the best treatments, including alternative therapies (briefly). It also points us to many different websites that will give us more information, what we should expect from the NHS and even how to address a GP that refuses to prescribe us hormonal therapy. Louise mentions many of the myths surrounding hormonal therapy and explain the truth.
It would have been better if it had a pdf with all the sites in it, but I'm not going to complain as in 1,5h (I listen to it fast) I learned alot.
Narration was excellent.

Who knew!

As a male partner to a very much loved and now more understood woman, this audio book gave me both the time and now knowledge to understand the what’s, why’s and when’s of such a significant psychological and physiological change she and we are experiencing. From Taboo to tea time talking! Priceless.
