| Transitions Through the Perimenopausal
Years is about the journey all women make leading up to and
through menopause. This book addresses the changes that women face
between the ages of 40 to 55 during the perimenopausal years and beyond,
preparing women for a long and healthy life. Midlife and perimenopausal
changes can be complex and frustrating and Transitions Through the
Perimenopausal Years is a new way of looking at this time of life
for women. It recognizes that the number of signs associated with
perimenopause, partly determined by a woman’s health and history,
are further affected by her particular social relations, economic
demands and position, career path, and spirituality. Together these
create a unique perimenopausal experience.
This book defines the terms of perimenopause, including the biology of being a woman, and it offers the most recent scientific findings concerning Ovarian Hormone Therapy and menopausal women. It explores some of the questions women ask: What are hot flushes? Why can’t I sleep at night? What can I do about moodiness? What can I do or take? What is good for me? Should I add something to my diet or exercise to my life? How much is too much? Is there sex after menopause? This book answers these questions and offers alternatives for action from lifestyle changes to alternative therapies to traditional medical therapies available. It also provides a great way to track what is happening through a personal daily diary: we can chart our own journey of change so we can determine what to expect. This book is based on women’s own stories and concerns. It was written by women about women for women: it is our story. Enjoy and bon voyage! The video/CD/DVD Transitions
Through the Perimenopausal Years is also available. |
