Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Klaiber, a physician who considers himself a psychoneuroendocrinologist, stresses that hormones are critical regulators of the brain. His book is written for women who experience one or more of the following: bouts of depression that they do not understand and cannot control, sudden and patterned memory loss, difficulty in making decisions, and a decline of sex drive. Klaiber's thesis, which is supported by cited research studies as well as a multitude of anecdotal tales, is that an individualized regimen of hormone therapy can provide relief of these symptoms, and more. He urges diagnosing a person's unique hormonal imbalances and correcting them with hormonal preparations tailored to meet that individual's needs. While much of what he writes about refers to perimenopausal, menopausal or post-menopausal women, he also discusses estrogen therapy to remedy PMS. Klaiber's book is important because it exemplifies a cross-disciplinary approach to medical care, advocating the use of antidepressant drugs where necessary, or thyroid medications if indicated, as well as estrogen/progesterone therapy. Klaiber's "cures" are impressive, and his viewpoint is worth considering in conjunction with advice from a woman's personal physician. A broad approach; recommended for consumer and women's health collections. Linda M.G. Katz, Florence A. Moore Lib. of Medicine, MCP Hahnemann Univ., Philadelphia

From Booklist
Self-styled psychoneuroendocrinologist Klaiber has devoted 30 years to investigating problems involving the elements in his compound characterization, especially in psychiatric settings. His thorough report imparts much scientific information enlivened by many brief case histories. Throughout, Klaiber stresses that hormone therapy is not unnatural. This is a comforting attitude because directed use of hormones can prevent heart disease, Alzheimer's, premenstrual tension syndrome, and many other difficulties women face. Moreover, hormone therapy doesn't increase the risk of cancer, Klaiber says, if published figures are correctly considered, and in addition to bestowing the benefits listed in the subtitle, can boost brainpower. It also promotes healthy menopause. Klaiber carefully points out that in most cases more research is needed to confirm the results he describes and that each case is unique and requires variations in procedures. William Beatty
