Burning Up, Frozen Out

What Every Man Needs to Know About the Menopause (But No One Told You)

De: Joe Warner, Rob Kemp

Let's be honest: most men feel completely unprepared for the menopause. And it can come at you fast. One moment, life feels normal. The next, everything's changed - her mood, her sleep, her energy, your connection. You want to help, but you don't know how - and you're worried you'll only make things worse. Sound familiar? You're not alone. But it's time to stop guessing - and start getting it right.

Burning Up, Frozen Out is the first practical, expert-led guide to perimenopause written specifically for men. It's not about fixing her - it's about understanding what's really going on, learning what helps, and becoming the partner who shows up when she needs you most. Clear, compassionate and refreshingly straightforward, it demystifies the science, explains the symptoms, and gives you the tools to navigate everything from hot flushes and hormone therapy to stress, sleep, sex and communication - without putting your foot in it. Again.

But it's not just about her - men go through big changes in midlife too. You'll also learn what's happening with you - hormonally, physically, emotionally - and get science-backed advice on sleep, stress, food and fitness to help you both build a fitter, happier, healthier future together.

Written by award-winning author Joe Warner and Rob Kemp, and packed with insights from world-leading experts including Dr Louise Newson, Dr Stacy Sims and Dr Kelly Casperson, Burning Up, Frozen Out will give you the clarity, confidence and game plan for getting through menopause together - more connected and better prepared for whatever life throws at you.©2026 Joe Warner and Rob Kemp
