Book Description

October 11, 1998

A true resource for women in their 30s and 40s, The Perimenopause Handbook defines perimenopause, outlines what happens to the body during perimenopause, and shows the reader how to identify whether or not they are experiencing perimenopause. It includes "What You Can Do" segments that provide the important information women need to make the best treatment decisions, and advice on how to find the right doctor if symptoms become severe.

The Perimenopause Handbook also includes essential information on hormone replacement therapy and alternative treatments, pregnancy during this time, and advice on exercise and nutrition. Appendices include major resources, organizations, and hotlines concerning women's menopause/health issues. There are also a list of Websites providing perimenopause information and a bibliography of the most recent books and articles on the subject.

By A Customer
This review is from: The Perimenopause Handbook : What Every Woman Needs to Know About the Years Before Menopause (Paperback)
As a woman going through perimenopause, this book was sorely dissapointing. The author presented theinformation in a vague and unorganized manner and did not give the very latest information that women need to know, even though it was publised in 1998. The book, Could it be Perimenopause by Dr. Steven Goldstein is so much better.
