The Good News About Estrogen

The Truth Behind a Powerhouse Hormone

By: Uzzi Reiss, Billie Fitzpatrick

Narrated by: Sean Pratt

The latest information about estrogen, the body's enlivening powerhouse hormone.

Why is estrogen crucial - and so misunderstood? How do I know if my estrogen level is "normal"? What is the best treatment for a hormonal imbalance? How does estrogen impact my reproductive cycle? Is hormone replacement therapy right for me? Is it only useful at menopause? How can I be my best, healthiest self now and in the future?

Understanding estrogen - its function and interplay with all your other hormones and body systems - is key to a healthy, vibrant life. But far too many women remain unaware of the benefits of estrogen, and how it can be supplemented in natural, bioidentical form.

This audiobook, written by an expert in the field of OB-GYN and integrative medicine, offers an authoritative yet accessible approach to hormonal health. In The Good News About Estrogen, Dr. Uzzi Reiss draws upon the most up-to-date scientific research, as well as women’s stories from his decades of practice, to explain:

• How hormones - and your levels of estrogen - change over time, and what you can do to achieve balance naturally or with hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
• The good news about estrogen - how it can enhance energy, sexuality, and memory; alleviate premenstrual syndrome (PMS) or the side effects of menopause; help fight weight gain, anxiety, depression, and more.
• Bioidentical hormones - why they are safe and crucial to your well-being at any age or stage, and how to choose which treatment plan is right for you.
• How your everyday habits - what you eat, drink, wear, and breathe - can affect hormonal health, and which small lifestyle changes can make a big difference.
• Nutrition and exercise - learn how each works hand-in-hand with hormones and can help you to achieve maximum physical and emotional fitness, promote bone health, prevent cardiovascular disease, and boost brain power.

Uzzi is fabulous

I have had difficulty balancing my hormones with my regular doctors. It’s more complicated for some people with thyroid issues. He is the only one who helped me so I read the book before my appointment to be up to speed with his current information. If you are struggling in menopause don’t suffer, you may have to re-think hormones to save your quality of life.

Information every woman needs to know!

This book will provide valuable information if you are considering bioidentical hormone therapy. A must read!

Excellent Book

This book was very helpful and answered many questions I had on bioidentical and prescription drugs for estrogen/HRT Therapy.
I feel better informed of the great benefits and risks (low) of HRT therapy for most menopausal women

Bio identical friend

Overall good information didn’t care for the forcefulness in the author/reader’s tone. Passion for one’s work is great but I felt there was too much time spent on persuading the audience of your authority.

Very Helpful!

Very helpful and educational! I highly recommend for anyone wanting or needing to learn more about hormone optimization!

There’s no such thing as post menopausal!

I learned so much! I’d recommend this to ALL women. Young and old. If you want to remain fit, healthy, and vibrant until the end of your life—this book tells of the incredible impact of how hormones keep you youthful and disease free. One thing I’d change is the Title—I don’t think it’s accurate as this is about so much more than estrogen.
