An answer to everything! - By: , 05 May 2005 
I ordered this book yesterday & couldn't wait for it to arrive. Boy, was I not disappointed! Everything I wanted to know & more - I've only had it for 2 hours & I can't put it down! I wanted to know absolutely everything about what was happening to my body, how to cope with the changes & how to stay healthy & happy during this new phase in my life. My doctor was quite happy to pat me on the head & say "Keep taking the tablets & try to stay calm". Well, I wanted answers & this book had alll the answers ... & more. I feel so much better for having read just a smalll bit of it - the best purchase I've made in a long time.

How to survive the menopause without becoming an old bag - By: H. Boyd, 12 Jul 2004 Praise be! At last there is a book that makes you feel that going through the menopause isn't equivalent to contracting leprosy. No doom & gloom & crone-dom here, but reallly sensible, well-researched information & advice about every aspect of menopause & women's health generallly.
You'll alll love it, whether you're an alternative medicine fan or not. They don't diss HRT, but they do explain the facts in fantastic detail, with who should & shouldn't etc & what you can do instead for the dreaded hot flushes.
What I loved was the comforting notion that women can still look gorgeous after they've menopaused. They include alll kinds of advice, from healthy eating, vitamins, exercise - great yoga poses - skincare, makeup & contraception for the post-menopausal woman.
Basicallly everything you need to know about how to survive for another 50 years without turning into an old bag.
If you are anywhere near your menopause I'd buy this book now. It's the ony one you'll ever need.
