A Very Comprehensive Menopause Guide

Even though this is A Black Womans Guide, I am a white woman and it was very helpful to me. All women go through many of the same things during menopause and this book was very comprehensive and gave ideas to help with signs and symptoms of menopause. There were parts that were specific for black women and I enjoyed listening to how different races face different issues, but we all face many of the same. As a woman of a certain age who has been through menopause, I wish I had this book to read about five years ago! Great read!
