"The book my patients have been waiting for." (Dr Peta Wright, gynecologist and women's health advocate)

Hormone Repair Manual is a practical guide to feeling better in your 40s, 50s, and beyond. It explains how to navigate the change of perimenopause and relieve symptoms with natural treatments such as diet, nutritional supplements, and bioidentical hormone therapy.

Topics include:

  • Why everything is different after “second puberty".
  • How perimenopause can be a tipping point for long-term health.
  • The four phases of perimenopause.
  • The role of testosterone and insulin in weight gain.
  • How to speak with your doctor about hormone therapy including natural progesterone.
  • Treatment protocols for all common perimenopause symptoms including night sweats, insomnia, migraines, and heavy periods.
  • Risk reduction for osteoporosis, heart disease, and dementia.

Written by best-selling author and naturopathic doctor, Lara Briden, the book is backed by evidence-based research and real-world patient stories.

I can’t stop recommending this book to friends and loved ones. Very minor tweaks I’ve made because of this book have already relieved brain fog and indigestion. I feel I will revisit this as I make my way towards menopause.

Every woman in her forty’s should read this

T her information reinforces a lot of what naturopaths and the functional medicine world says about taking care of yourself. Eat well, get sufficient rest, reduce stress, and exercise. Not a long list, but definitely lots of lifestyle choices to get us off course. Narrator sounded a little robotic.

Interesting read on preparing for menopause

My CNM recommended this book and I loved every minute of it. So informative. Wish this was information taught to all girls in school.

The author reads the book and her voice is so calm and soothing. Highly recommend.

It is an excellent book to recommend, not only for women in peri-menopause or menopause, but also for those who are closer to these stages, with the aim of becoming aware of the changes that are coming and an excellent book to recommend to men for that they can understand us from a more empathetic position and can support us and understand how wonderful a woman's body is.

The body speaks to us and tells us what it needs, we have to learn to listen to it

Great info, narrator has a beautifully calming voice. Wish I had read this earlier. Would have saved me lots of experimenting with supplements.

One nit: should have read this 5 years earlier :)

Seriously, I learned so much from this book. I’m 49. I wish I read this years ago. I have been telling everyone I know to read this. I’m going to start giving it as a birthday gift for all my 40-something friends! Such a great guide to what’s happening to our bodies and what to do about it, including how to talk to our doctor.

Gift for your friend’s 40th birthday

If you want to beg or bargain with your doctor for treatment, this is the book for you. While the author delivers an amazing amount of information, I found myself continuously mad and yelling back at my phone.

Menopause is generally presented in the book as a wonderful, peaceful transition filled with temporary minor symptoms, which was far from my experience. I imagine that any woman with that experience is not looking for the advice in this book.

And if you do want to act on the author's advice, her "how to talk to your doctor" sections all suggest to say, "doctor, I've heard progesterone is good for sleep, is it okay if I take some?" Like you are a 12 year old asking to go to a party.

I understand the author isn't a doctor and needs to protect herself, but the continuous "talk to your doctor" advice is bogus. I had to go to 4 doctors before one would consider hormone replacement therapy for a menopausal woman.

So just fair warning. Lots of information here, but you're still basically on your own.

Edit: I just finished the book and decided to get some of the supplemental information the author suggests the reader print out. I also wanted to review recommended dosages of supplements since there is no possible way to remember it all when listening. We'll.... There are no supplemental articles, PDFs or appendices included with this book. So frustrating.

I am so tempted to lower my rating, but instead, I'll just suggest you purchase the paper copy instead of the audio book. At least you'll get all the info that the book includes.

Too much and yet not enough
