Product Description
Product Description
Despite the increased attention in the media to women's health, hormone connections are not being routinely evaluated and as a result, critical information is still being missed. Women are suffering needlessly, often being given costly medications that cause side-effects. In this revised and updated edition, Dr. Vliet continues her crusade to debunk the myths and misinformation on women's health, and to inform readers about premature menopause, increasing hormone problems in young women, new natural hormone options, over-the-counter herbs and supplements, "Syndrome W": perimenopausal weight gain and insulin resistance, progesterone the pregnancy hormone, and the relationships between hormones and diseases.

If you think you are going crazy, you are not. You feel rundown, you are not interested in sex, you need more sleep, your mind handles information like an Intel 80386. This book is the answer. I have bought copies for my family and friends. I have recommended it to my business school class, and the MEN referred it to other women they know. Vliet gave me the ammunition to say, "No, it's not just that I'm getting older, and it's not just that I have young children, it's that something is wrong." I had my hormones tested, and despite lab results showing them to be "normal," they were all BELOW NORMAL for optimal function according to Vliet's clinical experience. This book is the best money you can spend on women's health. A literal lifesaver.

I had forgotten I had ordered this book back in March 2000 when it suddenly arrived. I didn't know what I had been missing - It is difficult to believe that doctors in this country can be so blinkered with all this evidence - which supports what us women have been thinking - it WAS our hormones all along! An exceedingly long overdue book - shame it didn't come in time to help my grandmother and great grandmother!

As a 38 year old woman who had a complete hysterectomy 2 yrs. ago, I have been researching hormone replacement, natural and synthetic for two years, as well as all the hormone loss related symptoms/health problems that go along with tah/bso.
Dr. Vliet's book presents hormonal connections and physiology within a woman's body in a very clear, complete and easy to understand manner.
A must read for anyone attempting to understand the huge scope of hormones within a woman's body and how they effect our entire health and well being.
