A Comprehensive Guide to Maintaining Hormonal Balance After Age 40 for Women

Nina Nusbaum: This book is well-written, very informative, and backed by science, research, and case studies. It is empowering and hopeful. It offers valuable strategies, advice, nutrition, and guidance to help women take control over hormonal changes and the inevitable stages of peri menopause, menopause, and post-menopause. I have been recommending this book tp friends, family members and colleagues. Every woman regardless of age must read this!

Amazon Customer: I can't say enough good things about this book - I've learnt so much from reading it.

First of all - the fact it is science based is great - Briden backs up insights with current studies, viewpoints from other doctors in the field and her own substantial clinical experience.

It also draws on a wide related field of health. I've learnt the skin issues a close friend has been having are more than probably related to her perimenopause; the heavy bleeding I had several years ago WAS in fact related to perimenopause (when my gynaecologist had assured me I was too young for that - 42 at the time, NOT too young it turns out), and ways to deal with a variety of annoying symptoms that have been emerging of late. The general approach is holistic - she recommends supplements, gives advice on medications and hormone therapy, and talks about lifestyle changes / how to support one's health.

She never patronises the reader - she's polite, insightful, straightforward and warm. I also enjoyed her re-framing of what this period can mean for us. Seriously, is anyone else tired of endless doom and gloom approaches to the whole darn thing? Why on earth is menopause endlessly...

xx: So I know to take magnesium and taurine, do these completely eliminate symptoms? No, of course not, but then does anyone really expect some vitamins to completely eliminate their symptoms, the hot flashes, the night sweats etc.? Do they help, who knows, can't hurt, I have tried it, and find it hard to say whether it helps or not, maybe sleep is somewhat better.

I have no idea how to take progesterone from this book, as it only seems to talk about women with regular periods or in menopause (12 months without a period I assume). Yea there are somewhat under 2 years of my life this book would have been helpful maybe, before that I had no symptoms at all worth noticing, but now, at 45, periods are too irregular and infrequent. And I think I hate natural progesterone from how it seems to act in my body, wow i might hate that hormone, but maybe that's just me. And I have little idea when estrogen would be appropriate, only in the first year without a period? How on earth would one know? And there are weird parts that talk about how you are still cycling your first year without a period. Excluding hysterectomy which wasn't what was being talked about, what does that even mean?...
