Given that millions of women have entered menopause each year since the dawn of time, it's bizarre that it still feels like uncharted territory for the women who are going through it. Dr. Heather Hirsch is committed to changing that. Unlock Your Menopause Type helps women cut through the informational noise and learn how to manage their symptoms most effectively by identifying their personal Menopause Type(s).
This is not a one-size fits all solution. Unlock Your Menopause Type features a helpful quiz to identify women's individual Menopause Type(s) such as:
-Premature
-Sudden
-Full-Throttle
-Mind-Altering
-Seemingly Never-ending
-Silent
Each type gets a full prescription for exercises, diet and strategies to regain mental focus and make menopause a routine part of maturity rather than a rollercoaster ride of unexpected symptoms and discomfort.
The book also includes:
-The last word on whether to replace declining hormones
-What to do if you're a combination of types
-How to get on top of (as it were) changes in your sex life
-Crowd-sourced tips and tricks from Dr Hirsch's friend group and patients
Dr Hirsch addresses the physical and emotional challenges of menopause and provides solutions from her years of practice. With knowledge, priorities and a plan, you can feel great through midlife and beyond.
This book provides some excellent advice about how to handle menopause. It even includes detailed plans based on whether you choose to use hormone replacement therapy or not.
The audiobook is decent until you get to the individuals plans for each menopause type. It was at that point I wish I had the physical book so I could mark it up and make notes. That part of the audiobook felt a bit repetitive.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
