Claire, a Pause & Unite member, Shares her thoughts after reading this book.....
Brief overview of the books perspective on peri/menopause:
With the help of medical experts and her own experience, Kate Muir debunks the myths and damaging headlines that have negatively affected women's health. Muir tackles the science behind hormones and ageing and considers the options available to the female population while confronting the taboo nature of the topic that affects so many of us.
Where were you in your Pausal Journey when you started reading it?
Just reached menopause.
What did you find most helpful or has stayed with you?
The explanation of different types of HRT available, the likely effects of taking HRT and which she would recommend based on findings.
Is there anything you did not agree with or any information you struggled with ?
There was a section on Alzheimer's which I felt less relevant to me but reading the book was not a struggle.
Did the book lead you to research anything else or take specific action ? If yes please provide details…
I started taking HRT as a result of reading the book and having someone clarify what it was I needed to ask or understand.
Any other thoughts or comments about the book or your Pausal journey….
It felt like the most modern book I have read on the topic of menopause and provided a shocking insight into the general lack of clarity and understanding of the topic, both inside and outside the medical community.
