Book Description
An authoritative guide to understanding and navigating the hormonal changes and health issues women experience in midlife and beyond, from one of the leading medical experts in the field. The physical changes that occur after women turn forty are unavoidable—and can be unnerving. Menopause affects every aspect of life—from sex and sleep to mood and mental clarity to weight and body temperature. While there are a number of resources available, many are confusing and contradictory. Now, Manhattan gynecologist Dr. Tara Allmen, an experienced, nationally board-certified menopause practitioner and the recipient of the 2015 Doctor’s Choice National Award for Obstetrics & Gynecology, shares her knowledge to help women be their happiest and healthiest, and turn this challenging time into an exciting one. Written in her effervescent yet assured voice, Menopause Confidential provides simple strategies and cutting-edge information on: hormonal changes and the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause; the health risks associated with midlife—from cutting through the conflicting opinions and advice about health screenings (Do I really need a colonoscopy? How often should I get a mammogram?) to common medical conditions, such as osteoporosis; various remedies, both allopathic and natural, to combat symptoms and empower women to make the best choices for their individual needs; practical tips and resources for mitigating the effects of menopause. Fifty-one-year-old Dr. Allmen knows firsthand what women are going through, and shares stories of her own personal travails and solutions. Women can’t turn back the clock, but they can take control of their health and flourish in midlife. Menopause Confidential encourages them to be informed, be proactive, and be their greatest selves.

Hot flashes. Vaginal atrophy. Social stigma. The comics in this unapologetic anthology prove that when it comes to menopause and its attendant symptoms, no one needs to sweat it alone. Featuring works by comics luminaries such as Lynda Barry, Joyce Farmer, Ellen Forney, and Carol Tyler, Menopause is the perfect antidote to the simplistic, cheap-joke approach that treats menopause as a cultural taboo.

Other contributors include Maureen Burdock, Jennifer Camper, KC Councilor, MK Czerwiec, Leslie Ewing, Ann M. Fox, Keet Geniza, Roberta Gregory, Teva Harrison, Rachael House, Leah Jones, Monica Lalanda, Cathy Leamy, Ajuan Mance, Jessica Moran, Mimi Pond, Sharon Rosenzweig, Joyce Schachter, Susan Merrill Squier, Emily Steinberg, Nicola Streeten, A.

Book Description
As I approached my early forties I started to experience symptoms from my body and mind that I had not experience before, with the emotional rollercoaster and the cold and hot temperatures of my body. So I got tired of these effects and started researching what was going on with these high emotions. After describing these symptoms to a client who's an OB-GYN specializing in Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), I discovered I was going through peri-menopause. It was then that I began my journey with menopause, and after finding several tools, and self help factors I wanted to share this experience with women all over the world. In this way, I began my "marathon for menopause, ." I found myself experiencing a major change in life, a change quite unfamiliar to me. I embarked on new, unexplored territory with weight gain, hot flashes, moodiness, which taken together-made me unpleasant to be around. Then it hit me; I was experiencing what my mother and countless other women before me had experience; the unknown and unwanted guest of menopause. I am sharing mine, and other women experiences with others in the hope that they too can feel great and look great while going through the "change." Not everyone will be open to the challenge. However, getting better through healing and embracing menopause is worth the effort.

Book Description
In Flying Up the Stairs! What You Need to Know About Menopausal Arthritis to Break Free, the author presents a natural, self-healing plan for addressing the joint aches and pains so widely experienced by women at and after menopause. In this comprehensive book, cutting-edge research is presented that provides the basis for natural healing. Unique exercises are also presented that are specifically designed to alleviate and to prevent menopausal arthritis. Although the joint aches and pains accompanying menopause are often thought of as being simply a form of osteoarthritis (viewed as a wear and tear disease of aging), the author shows you why current research demonstrates otherwise. Learn how your metabolism at menopause, and hormones such as leptin, are highly involved in fostering joint aches and pains. Learn, too, why inflammation is intricately a part of menopausal arthritis. Discover psychological factors that are associated with arthritis, and how emotions may affect arthritis pain. Finally, learn how to heal naturally through diet, exercises, weight loss, lifestyle changes, external healing, and stress-reduction techniques. Innovative, original, and insightful, this book will help you free yourself of joint pain at and after menopause.
