Synopsis

Menopause, estrogen, hot flashes, weight gain, lagging libido, waning sex, leaky bladder, diet and exercise, sleepless nights, depression, breast cancer, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, strokes, heart disease, blood clots…

When most women hear the word menopause, it fills them with dread—and for good reason. With so many giant implications for health and so little clear information, it’s easy to become overwhelmed and discouraged.

But while menopause is inevitable, it doesn’t have to be inevitably terrible. Emine Cay Masters, MD, a board-certified OB-GYN with more than three decades of experience caring for menopausal women, lays out in clear and credible language everything a woman needs to know about this transitional time in life, so that every woman can make informed and empowering decisions about her health and future.

Addressing the myriad ways that estrogen works in a woman’s body, Dr. Masters provides valuable and profound insight into female hormones. While sifting through all the myth, facts, and controversy linked to estrogen replacement therapy, she candidly discusses options for mastering menopause.

To enjoy a pleasant passage through this hormonal transition, as well as secure a healthy future with dignified longevity, a woman has to get real about her menopausal journey. This book helps her do just that.
