A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The menopause is an inevitable - and natural - part of every woman's life. Some of us breeze through it without a problem. Most of us are not so lucky: two-thirds of women suffer from one of the many characteristic symptoms and one in five finds that it profoundly affects their mood and quality of life. The irony is that, partly because of the well-publicised dangers of HRT, many of us put up with more pain and discomfort than we need to. This useful book shows that there are many ways we can improve and even banish our symptoms. Dr Currie answers over 160 questions from real women in this down-to-earth guide. She encourages you to use the information in this book to manage your menopause in a way that best suits you and your lifestyle. This book includes key features such as: the real facts about HRT which gives the medical evidence, debunks the scare stories and explains whether it could be right for you; advice about contraception, sex, diet, and alternative therapies; answers to questions that you may not have the time or desire to ask your doctor; and, details of where to go for further information and support.
