About this listen

 'Louise is a voice you can really trust. I've learnt so much from her and now you can too.' - Holly Willoughby
'Dr Louise is a miracle worker' - Lorraine Kelly
'Louise is my No. 1 go-to when it comes to anything menopause and this book is perfect for when I'm worried about anything.'- Alison Hammond
'Louise Newson is wonderful... a real expert in her field.' - Joe Wicks

Your complete, expert, evidence-based guide to the perimenopause and menopause.

Dr Louise Newson is fast becoming the leading medical expert on hormone health. This revised and expanded edition of her bestselling book has all the information and advice you need to understand the impact of low hormone levels on your perimenopause symptoms as well as on your future health post-menopause. There's an up-to-date guide to HRT doses, how to deal with HRT availability fluctuations, new research on testosterone and its benefits beyond libido boosting and startling findings on how low hormones can increase our propensity towards addictive behaviours, including intake of alcohol. New interviews with experts including Dr Lisa Mosconi discuss pertinent questions such as whether HRT can reduce the risk of dementia, and new case studies from Newson Health reveal essential research on how hormone imbalance can impact the neurodivergent brain.

With the gender pay gap highlighting inequality in the workplace and women's pension pots diminished, it is vitally important that the frightening stats showing almost 60% of women have taken time off work or reduced their hours due to menopause symptoms are broadcast far and wide. This book will empower and inform you to improve your own menopause care as well as understand the bigger societal issues that have been ignored for far too long.©2023 Louise Newson (P)2023 Hodder & Stoughton Limited Aging & Longevity Menopause Physical Illness & Disease

I didn’t know that much about the health effects of hormones. Not just at menopause but throughout my lufe. I found it very useful and recommended it to lots of people.

I very much enjoyed listening to this book and feel I learnt a lot. Will give a few chapters an extra listen as they are so packed with helpful advice and guidance that I will be implementing, as I begin this roller coaster ride that is perimenopause. Well written and accessible language, I found it easy to follow.

Helpful and incredibly informative

Thank You Dr Louise. This book really helped me understand what my body / mind is doing, and more to the point, what it needs to function better. The explanation on how each hormone affects us is brilliant. Well explained, I wish Dr Louise Newson was at my surgery. I am now armed with the evidence and confidence to talk to my GP and NOT be fobbed off with anti-depressants. Please keep doing what you are doing Dr Newson, the word about women’s health and wellbeing is getting out there. Please please can this be taught in medical schools, it’s a game changer for all women, any age as we will all go through this. Fantastic book.

 Whilst the book was brilliant, it was a shame that someone else didn’t narrate it. I found the author’s narration annoying.

Fantastically informative
