Book Synopsis



From the editors of the classic "Bible of Women's Health," a trustworthy, up-to-date guide to help every woman navigate the menopause transition.For decades, millions of women have relied on Our Bodies, Ourselves to provide the most comprehensive, honest, and accurate information on women's health.

Our Bodies, Ourselves: Menopause provides an in-depth look at subjects such as hormone therapy and sexuality as well as proven strategies for coping with challenges like hot flashes, mood swings, and night sweats. In clear, accessible language, the book dispels menopause myths and provides crucial information that women can use to take control of their own health and get the best care possible. Our Bodies, Ourselves: Menopause is an essential resource for women who are experiencing--or expecting--menopause.



Review Quotes




"So much has been learned about menopause in the last twenty-five years -- what a challenge it had to be to treat the subject in a comprehensive, comprehensible manner, which this book admirably does....A worthy companion to the classic pathfinder book by the same organization." -- Isaac Schiff, M. D., chief of Obstetrics and Gynecology Service at Massachusetts General Hospital
