In this definitive guide, Dr Newson lays out everything women need to know to understand and reclaim their power during this stage of life: what to expect, how best to manage symptoms, and what help is available. Menopause isn’t simply about hot flushes. Symptoms can include memory loss, migraines, joint pain, insomnia, fuzzy brain and depression – all brought on by a severe reduction in hormone levels. Those hormone levels never recover. Women who think – as many do – that they should put up with their menopausal symptoms until they ‘get to the other side’ are sadly misguided. There are also increased risks of long-term health problems for menopausal women – including diabetes, heart disease and osteoporosis. So menopausal women shouldn’t suffer silently. They should look for help.
