Your complete, expert, evidence-based guide to the perimenopause and menopause.

Dr Louise Newson is fast becoming the leading medical expert on hormone health. This revised and expanded edition of her bestselling book has all the information and advice you need to understand the impact of low hormone levels on your perimenopause symptoms as well as on your future health post-menopause. There's an up-to-date guide to HRT doses, how to deal with HRT availability fluctuations, new research on testosterone and its benefits beyond libido boosting and startling findings on how low hormones can increase our propensity towards addictive behaviours, including intake of alcohol. New interviews with experts including Dr Lisa Mosconi discuss pertinent questions such as whether HRT can reduce the risk of dementia, and new case studies from Newson Health reveal essential research on how hormone imbalance can impact the neurodivergent brain.

With the gender pay gap highlighting inequality in the workplace and women's pension pots diminished, it is vitally important that the frightening stats showing almost 60% of women have taken time off work or reduced their hours due to menopause symptoms are broadcast far and wide. This book will empower and inform you to improve your own menopause care as well as understand the bigger societal issues that have been ignored for far too long.©2023 Louise Newson Medical Writer Ltd

Clear and abundant useful information,

Lots of approachable, actionable and useful information. I wish I had read this the day I turned forty, I would have been much better prepared for the changes ahead and could have saved myself a lot of worry that something was truly the matter and the expense of numerous doctors appointments (without a single mention of the menopause transition being a possible reason for the symptoms).
I appreciate Dr. Newson’s calm and clear approach, love hearing her voice, feel empowered to begin HRT and look forward to sharing this resource with friends, colleagues and family.
Thank you for your good work, Dr. Newson.

Very empowering and inspiring.

This is one of the most comprehensive guides to midlife transition for women. I wish I’d read it 8 years ago! Thank you Louise for your generous sharing. We need Doctors like you in South Africa.
