Rating:  - I had immediate results/improvement! Thank God!
I am just about to turn 40. For the past two years, I've had insomnia and severe PMS symptoms every month. I've been to a sleep specialist, an endocrinologist, the gynocologist, all to no avail except money spent on meds that didn't work. I threw the meds out when a friend handed me this book, tried just the vitamin and mineral supplement suggestions (one of the perizappers) plus the magnesium suggestion for insomnia, and got relief within two weeks. Make sure the magnesium you get has a high ... Read More
Rating: - Wish I'd found this 5 years ago!

Rating:  - Say "no" to perimenopause
Perimenopause is a marketing construct, intended to sell drugs, books and other products by instilling self-doubt and insecurity. Resist the effort to pathologize everything about women's bodies.
Rating:  - Cutting Through the Questions
I had heard about this book from many of my friends, all of us just over the 50 Mark....and it turned out to be very informational and helpful and encouraging. There are so many books out on the subject of menopause and all the blood, sweat and tears that are part of this time in a woman's life....going into a bookstore is like going into Toys R Us and looking for a Barbie outfit....quite overwhelming.....this book is one of the smart ones to have and to hold and to keep.
