Menopause - Miriam Stoppard

Here is the first complete illustrated guide to the menopause - a change that affects every part of a woman's life.
To enable women to be at their best through this crucial time and in the years beyond
Menopause considers the total person.
Written by the bestselling author and popular medical authority Dr. Miriam Stoppard
it distinguishes fact from fiction and informs women about all the health-care choices available to them today.
"Why do I feel so anxious?" "Should I have trouble remembering things?" "Is it normal to wake up drenched in sweat?" Each woman's experience of the menopause is different
so Menopause looks at the full range of symptoms - from tiredness to tearfulness
hot flushes to loss of libido - and the ways to alleviate them.
The long-term risks facing menopausal women and the tests and treatments necessary to monitor and maintain health are examined in detail.
The full range of hormone replacement therapies is described and the advantages and disadvantages of each discussed.
