Cracking the Menopause: While Keeping Yourself Together

It's a useful and necessary book. There was a lot of other peoples experiences and stories about menopause a bit too much. I personally prefer fact driven books, so if you are looking for more facts and research, then this might not be the book for you. Mind you, there's so little proper research, a fact driven book might be thin reading :-)

Excellant read funny and informative

I liked that this book is a mix of scientific / medical information but contains the experiences of real women as well. There is plenty of helpful information explaining what to expect during menopause ( and afterwards) and what solutions you might find. If you buy one book about menopause I'd suggest this one is a pretty good choice. Its certainly reassured me. There is a lot in the news about menopause recently and I was starting to get concerned that I was about to experience something terrible ! I now feel more informed and prepared and a lot less worried.

Well written, well researched, fun to read as well as being extremely balanced and informative. Highly recommend reading this book - or even better, listen to the audio book of it which is read by the author herself. I do this on any long journey where I don’t have the kids/husband in the car. Great narrator with a good sense of humour. Found it life-affirmative and good to be reminded of healthy habits and tips that aid the transformative years/decades of perimenopause; there were good all-round examples of different people approaching it in different ways. Found it extremely helpful to have read most of it before approaching the nhs doctor for advice on symptoms.

Excellent for any menopausal lady - a great read, really informative with good advice. Products are recommended to help ease symptoms and information on HRT.
