Womenopause (Stop Pausing and Start Living)

Every single day six thousand American women reach menopause. The prospect of menopause may strike fear into even the most self-assured woman. Perimenopause and postmenopause encompass more than one-half of a woman's life and unnecessarily conjure visions of decline and demise. WOMENOPAUSE presents a clear fresh voice to the controversy of hormone therapy for menopausal symptoms. Over the past thirty years, Dr. Lovera Wolf Miller has witnessed public fascination swing from one trend to the next. Through it all, women have benefited, and at times suffered, whenever new treatment strategies have come into vogue. WOMENOPAUSE invites readers into the intimate conversation that takes place between a woman and her female gynecologist. In this book, all of the hype, all of the marketing, and all of the ill-informed opinions are exposed. WOMENOPAUSE is the menopause makeover.
