The Wisdom Of Menopause: The complete guide to physical and emotional health during the change

Are you a female? Then you should own this book. period. end of discussion. There is so much valuable info here that it should be a manual for women of most any age. I have gone back to it over and over. Thank you Dr. Northrup!

This book is highly recommended to women who are going through menopause, in fact the information in this book would help any women after 45 years of age. Dr Northrup has explained everything that happens in the mind and body, making it easier to go through this natural but difficult transition. For a women like myself who needed some guidance as to what was happening, i found this book extremely useful, educational and life changing. As it is the wisdom of menopause i feel it is a great title as it really has made me a wiser women. I liked the references to natural alternatives, the resources provided, independent tests which back up alot of the content. I highly recommend this book to other women who feel lost at this time, as they feel there mind and body are not the same as it used to be.

*****This latest book by Dr. Christiane Northrup is one that should interest every woman over 35 (as it covers not just menopause, but perimenopause). It covers the author's own health journey, our psychological and physical well-being, maintaining health as a mature woman, as well as what you'd expect---everything you'd ever want to know about menopause and perimenopause. It also covers pelvic health, our breasts, sleep, depression, memory, healthy bones, everything about hormone replacement and much, much more.It is not an alternative health book or conventional medical book, but what would be better called an integrative medicine book, as it covers lifestyle modifications, alternative health treatments that have been scientifically validated (e.g., bioidentical hormones), as well as conventional medical approaches. It is more a health bible, though, than a medical book, written not just for reference, but as an empowering read to help mature women feel good about themselves and the changes their bodies are going through. When you read it, you'll not be just very well informed, but entertained as well---the writing is excellent and enjoyable. Dr. Northrup does not present one viewpoint or push an agenda but explains the pros and cons of all current approaches and encourages you to make your own decision.As a woman who has passed through menopause, it has made me feel better and more excited about the changes I've experienced than any other book has! It was a joy to read all 631 pages!Highly recommended.*****

Parfait!

Full of information. The new age bits weren't for me so i just didn't take them to heart. Apart from that a really thorough and book.
