The only thing predictable about menopause is its unpredictability. Factor in widespread misinformation, a lack of research, and the culture of shame around women's bodies, and it's no wonder women are unsure what to expect during the menopause transition and beyond.

Menopause is not a disease - it's a planned change, like puberty. And just like puberty, we should be educated on what's to come years in advance, rather than the current practice of leaving people on their own with bothersome symptoms and too much conflicting information. Knowing what is happening, why, and what to do about it is both empowering and reassuring.

Frank and funny, Dr. Jen Gunter debunks misogynistic attitudes and challenges the over-mystification of menopause to reveal everything you really need to know about: perimenopause, hot flashes, sleep disruption, sex and libido, depression and mood changes, skin and hair issues, outdated therapies, breast health, weight and muscle mass, health maintenance screening, and much more.

Filled with practical, reassuring information, this essential guide will revolutionize how women experience menopause - including how their lives can be even better for it!

Thank-you, thank-you, thank- you!Finally, someone is talking about this. I learned so much and can't stop taking about it and recommending it to others. I wish my 45 year old self had read it. I'm 55 now and in full blown post menopausal state. (aka miserable) Several times while listening I was overwhelmed with relief, in tears and practically screaming out loud, "OMG, it's NOT just me!!"
It was a little more medical than I comprehended a couple times while listening, but I'm getting a paper copy for future referencing.

No nonsense, inclusive, evidenced-based take on all things menopause. I am a psych nurse practitioner. Perimenopausal changes come up in discussion daily in my office. I am steering people to this book every day. Well done. Vagina Bible is up next in my to-reads.

Thank you Dr Gunter

Wonderful resource!

I really appreciate this book. It is extensive and informative. Touches probably all subjects I can think of on the matter. I also got the printed book because I will use it as a guideline.
I had hard time listening to her though. I found her tone of voice too soothing to keep following at times. I wish a voice professional did the reading.

Informative, no bullshit, and feminist
