EXPERT-DRIVEN, GIRLFRIEND-APPROVED - The menopause manual that cuts through the chaos so you can take back control of your body, your confidence, and your life, from Emmy award-winning journalist, documentary filmmaker, and social media powerhouse Tamsen Fadal.
What´s happening to me? Is anyone else feeling this way? Why did no one tell me about this?
If you´re ready to feel like yourself again, this book is "the talk" you never had.
How To Menopause is packed with actionable steps and evidence-based tools from a team of 42 experts including neuroscientists, menopause-certified physicians, sex and relationship therapists, sleep doctors, and a variety of lifestyle mentors.
Synthesizing research, stories, and strategies in a way that only an investigative journalist can, Tamsen Fadal helps you
- be your best advocate in a medical system not designed to treat women in midlife,
- understand the options that tame your symptoms, whether it´s hormone therapy, supplements, or lifestyle changes,
- have science-backed strategies to get the best sleep of your life,
- be able to talk to your partner about sex, low libido, painful intercourse, or how your hormones might be impacting your relationship,
- update your style (hair, makeup, clothes) to match your changing body,
- learn simple workouts, skincare tips, and delicious recipes to deal with belly fat, dry skin, and hair loss (and don´t worry, it´s not all kale salads)--and much, much more.
How to Menopause answers all the questions you´ve been too nervous to ask, and brings you into a conversation with millions of other women. Together, we can embrace a stronger, sexier self at every stage of midlife-from perimenopause through menopause and into our "bolden" years.
"How to Menopause is more than just advice--it provides a lifeline. Through her honesty, humor, research, and relentless commitment to women´s health, Tamsen Fadal has created a guide that is both practical and deeply personal. Whether you´re just beginning to experience perimenopause or well into this transition, these words will leave you feeling more confident, more informed, and most importantly--never alone." --Lisa Mosconi, PhD, New York Times bestselling author of The Menopause Brain
