The Change

Germaine Greer

1991

In this study of the real and fundamental change which women experience during the menopause and which, like other fundamental changes, needs mental preparation and acceptance if it is not to be found unbearable, Dr Greer examines medical theories and treatment over the ages, and finds them often contradictory, excessive and, at times, dangerous. She responds to the traditional attitude of men and society which has been responsible for the creation of an image of the older woman as fake damsel or old crone. Dr Greer has weighed up the facts, the theories and the outright fabrications.

Perimenopause

Nancy Lee Teaff, Nancy Lee Md Teaff, Kim Wright Wiley

1994

The symptoms associated with menopause can begin fifteen years prior to the onset of menopause. During that early stage, called perimenopause, many women experience bewildering symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, irregular menstrual cycles, sleeping disorders, and what some describe as "PMS all month." Perimenopause has often been ignored in the past, and even the medical community is just becoming aware of its widespread presence in pre-menopausal women. Given that fact, it is wise to learn as much as possible about this process. In a jargon-free, reader-friendly style, "Perimenopause--Peparing for the Change discusses: - What perimenopause is, when it occurs, how to diagnose it, and what it means - Symptoms and solutions and natural versus medicated treatments - Wellness: stress relief, weight control, excercise, diet, and nutrition - Finding the right doctor and what to expect during an office visit - Fertility and infertility - Psychology, sexuality and perimenopause - Talking with other women: support groups and how to tell if you need them - The pros and cons of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) In order to be proactive in your health care you need to educate yourself. Menopause may have once changed women. But, when informed, women can change menopause. About the Authors Nancy Teaff, M.D., is a Fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology. As a female infertility specialist, she saw a need for more information on menopause. Kim Wright Wiley is the best-selling author of "Walt Disney World with Kids. She is a contributing editor to Working Mother magazine and writes regularly for "Family Fun, "Parents and"Parenting magazines.

Come as you are

Emily Nagoski Ph.D.

2015

***A "NEW YORK TIMES" BESTELLER*** An essential exploration of why and how women's sexuality works--based on groundbreaking research and brain science--that will radically transform your sex life into one filled with confidence and joy. Researchers have spent the last decade trying to develop a "pink pill" for women to function like Viagra does for men. So where is it? Well, for reasons this book makes crystal clear, that pill will never exist--but as a result of the research that's gone into it, scientists in the last few years have learned more about how women's sexuality works than we ever thought possible, and "Come as You Are" explains it all. The first lesson in this essential, transformative book by Dr. Emily Nagoski is that every woman has her own unique sexuality, like a fingerprint, and that women vary more than men in our anatomy, our sexual response mechanisms, and the way our bodies respond to the sexual world. So we never need to judge ourselves based on others' experiences. Because women vary, and that's normal. Second lesson: sex happens in a context. And all the complications of everyday life influence the context surrounding a woman's arousal, desire, and orgasm. Cutting-edge research across multiple disciplines tells us that the most important factor for women in creating and sustaining a fulfilling sex life, is not what you do in bed or how you do it, but "how you feel about it." Which means that stress, mood, trust, and body image are not peripheral factors in a woman's sexual wellbeing; they are central to it. Once you understand these factors, and how to influence them, you can create for yourself better sex and more profound pleasure than you ever thought possible. And Emily Nagoski can prove it.

Hormone therapies and natural alternative treatments.

Estrogen

Spanish Edition by Lila E. Nachtigall, Joan Rattner Heilman

1986

En la actualidad, la terapia de sustitución hormonal suscita un notable desconcierto y confusión en multitud de mujeres e incluso entre los médicos. Si se sigue correctamente, el tratamiento con estrógenos constituye uno de los medios más eficaces para afrontar los cambios físicos que sobrevienen en la mujer a lo largo de la menopausia, desde los sofocos y el insomnio hasta el entumecimiento de manos y pies. Esta guía, que incluye las investigaciones científicas más recientes, así como las terapias alternativas de que se dispone, ofrece información sobre la eficacia del tratamiento hormonal --junto con sus efectos secundarios y posibles problemas-- para aliviar los síntomas de la menopausia, prevenir la osteoporosis, mejorar la memoria, mantener una vida sexual activa y reducir la probabilidad de desarrollar la enfermedad de Alzheimer o un infarto de miocardio.

Menopause without medicine

Linda Ojeda

1989

This book is needed more than ever. The National Institute of Health interrupted their huge HRT (hormone replacement therapy) study in July 2002 after they found that Prempro, a combination of estrogen and progestin, had detrimental health effects which include an increased risk for breast cancer, heart disease, and stroke. This new edition examines the latest information about HRT and the safer alternatives. It completely validates the author's long-held bias against HRT and shows women, whether perimenopausal, menopausal, or postmenopausal, how they can maintain and improve their health and well-being without the use of synthetic hormones. The book offers complete information on menopausal symptoms and effects and ways to alleviate them. Updated sections cover heart disease (including hormonal effects, the role of cholesterol, diet, and supplements), osteoporosis, and breast cancer. The section on exercise and nutrition for health and weight is completely rewritten. The latest information on non-hormonal remedies to balance hormones is what is needed by every woman wanting to avoid HRT.
