Author: Margaret Smith

Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 0


This widely acclaimed book is based on the question most asked by women who are experiencing physical and emotional changes in their middle years (ages 40 to 55). Experience has shown gynaecologist Dr Margaret Smith and psychotherapist Patricia Michalka that not all women need or want hormone therapy at this time and, indeed, not everything that happens at this time of life is due to hormones. In this book, the authors use women's experiences (including their own) to explain how to sort out the confusion caused by the interaction of hormones and life events. Their writing contains practical guidance - both medical and psychological - and reflects the rich tapestry of many women's lives with all their humour, confusion and clarity. This second edition builds on the reputation that Is It Me or My Hormones? achieved with doctors, counsellors and readers for its relevant and compassionate approach to the lives of women. It has been revised and updated, and includes developments in the prescribing of hormone replacement therapy.
