Your Perfectly Pampered Menopause: Health, Beauty, and Lifestyle Advice for the Best Years of Your Life

This is a lighthearted approach to understanding a serious subject. I have purchased numerous copies to share with friends. I highly recommend this book to those whodo not want a clinical outlook. This book will make you laugh out loud at some of her experiences. I have found it to be a great resource asI sift through the "pause".

I read two free excerpts of this book on WebMD and they were both wonderful - filled with great information and very helpful suggestions. So I bought the book - and I wasn't disappointed - it was even better than what I read online. It is definitely one of the only menopause books I know of that discusses all treatment options - both traditional and non-traditional, plus it also is a great resource for mid-life health in general. It not only covers traditional menopause symptoms - like hot flashes and night sweats and memory loss - it also offers important information on bone health, on mid-life weight gain, fatigue, women and heart disease, hair loss, incontinence, reducing cancer risks, - so it's really so much more than just a meonpause book. In fact, you really get your money's worth with this one! But again, that's what I've come to expect from what I read on WebMD - they always feature the best and most informative articles. Wow - a great book!

Of all things, my husband bought me this book! He knew I was suffering with so many symptoms - and thought this book would help!At first I was angry- but I got over it, and when I read this book it practically changed my life. It eased my mind about many problems, and offered concrete solutions for others. It's also hysterically funny - made me look at my life in a whole new way! This book should be REQUIRED READING by every woman over 45! It's also easy to read and understand, and follow - plus it has a fabulous website that also offers a lot of help. If you are having any type of menopause related problems - or perimenopause - don't miss this book - it's the best one,and I've read them all!

Your Perfectly Pampered Menopause coincided with my hot flashes, bizarre itching, weird memory loss and irrational meltdowns, culminating with one in Amy's Bread because they let ONE PERSON buy all their brioche loaves. So, even though I just turned 48, it never occurred to me that I might be going through perimenopause--duh--until a friend turned me on to this fantastic book. I knew I was on to something when I looked at chapter 9 Your Brain on Menopause...Or, why you cry when the bakery is out of rye bread. No coincidence. This book is hilarious and chock full of comforting information--I'm not losing my mind!!!--and sound advice. I now carry it around with me and not just because I keep forgetting to take it out of my bag...okay, I do forget...But this is an awesome book!
