Format:Paperback
So, at the age of 44, and still looking like I was about 32, I found myself smack dab in menopause. I couldn't understand my lack of patience with those I encountered in the world. I had absolutely no inclination to please anyone by extending myself emotionally. I just wanted to be alone....needed to be alone....absolutely by myself. I just wanted to stay in my bed and rest. I cried alot; and, I kept rethinking my past and the things that had caused me unhappiness. I felt that I didn't have anything to live for. I felt old and undesireable. Then, one day, in the organic health food store, I came across this wonderful book. Since I was at the brink of accepting my menopausal status, I wanted to read as much as a could on the subject. All I can say is thank God I found this book. It spoke to me and identified all of the things I was feeling. It taught me that it was ok to be menopausal and that there is a place in the world for me. I felt better. I began on my herbal therapy and now I feel much better. The only problem that I have now is that since I appear so youthful, I still don't get the respect I believe I deserve as I begin to function in my crone role. Well, I guess wrinkles will catch up with me in a bit. Read this book. Buy this book for a loved one who you think is nearing menopause. Heck, buy this book for any young woman so she'll know what to expect.

I am an perimenopausal woman who found out the hard way I can't take HRT, as it caused pulmonary emboli for me. I have found this book to invaluable as I traverse the course of the menopause years. The book is encouraging and informative, containing information I found no where else. I particularily like the way it is formatted by symptoms and also by in-depth explanations of herbs and what they do. As each woman experiences different symptoms and may be looking for their own specific situation, this book allows you to quickly locate what is of value to you. The basic recommendations for diet and health are excellant. This book is a real find for the "baby-boomer" women who want to be in control of their bodies and minds and know what is happening to them and take an active role in dealing with the issues that arise.

I have probably bought 20 copies of this book over the last few years, but I just can't seem to keep it on my shelf. Susun Weed has given us a fun and information-filled guide to our change of life and offers a multi-faceted approach to problems solving and symptom management. Her science is great regarding the calcium supplement problem, and of course her herbal suggestions and recipes are right on and doable. Not only a must read, but you'll refer to it again and again.

Sorry I can't buy this philosophy. No offence but I have no wish to glory in the revolting process called menopause or to use the correct term female hypogonadism. Read more
