Menopause: A New Zealand Guide by Beverley Lawton

Menopause is a 'hot' topic for many women today. Older women make up a great and growing proportion of the population. With modern obstetrics, medicines and good public health, a New Zealand woman reaching fifty today would expect to live another 33. 5 years or 26 years for non-Maori and Maori respectively. This means that menopause and its sometimes difficult associated symptoms is extremely important as women strive to live a quality life. This book outlines in clear, no-nonsense language the issues that menopausal women confront and helps them through the maze of medical advice on offer. It covers: * Changes at menopause * Treating symptoms without HRT * The role of HRT * You want to try HRT - what next? * Getting fatter, getting thinner * Sexuality and menopause * Osteoporosis and how to beat it * Breast cancer and HRT.
