Recommended Reading for Menopausal Women
For women suffering from the effects of Menopause, any
information that helps to alleviate the pain and suffering of
this terrible affliction is most welcome. There are countless
books on the market that profess to have the answers you seek.
Every other author claims to have new, groundbreaking material
that will completely change your life. These claims are
optimistic at best and misleading at worst. Of all the books I
have read on the subject of Menopause, the following are by far
the most informative and insightful. Make yourself a cup of tea,
put your feet up, and enjoy the read!
