About this listen

In this engaging book, expert health writer Niki Bezzant shares the latest specialist research and advice along with personal stories from real women to answer the most important questions women have about the hottest of topics.

From bodies to mental health, alcohol to our stressful working lives, fertility to relationships, natural remedies to HRT, she dispels the myths and confusion around menopause - with a healthy side-serve of calling out sexism, snake-oil and bullshit along the way - and explains how to get the best help, for you.

This is a must-have guide to menopause and beyond - the symptoms, the solutions and the stuff that really works.

Includes: when menopause happens early - HRT, MHT and other treatments - periods - hot flushes, night sweats and heart palpitations - weight gain and body changes - migraines - mood changes, anxiety and depression - gut issues - sex, libido and relationships - sleep and insomnia - alcohol - exercise, nutrition and healthy eating - menopause in the workplace - and much more.

Fantastic book! Hitting peri-menopause is tough, made even tougher by the fact that we are just not educated on this like we were at puberty, this book fills that gap. I felt so much more empowered after listening to this, and highly recommend it to any women.

The education we all need at this stage
