The New Menopause

24.00 USD

By Dr Mary Claire Haver

Though a woman’s transition through menopause is natural, the drop in oestrogen is associated with discomfiting symptoms that doctors have too often dismissed-from hot flushes, brain fog and weight gain, to less talked about psychological, musculoskeletal and sexual issues. What’s more, it increases a woman’s risk of developing serious conditions, including diabetes, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. Clearly, ‘natural’ doesn’t always mean ‘healthy’- but that doesn’t mean there isn’t something we can do to improve things.
