The M Word: Everything You Need to Know About the Menopause
 
The menopause does not have to mean the end of your libido, of sex, of work, or of feeling like who you used to be.
 
The M Word is a complete one-stop guide to the perimenopause and menopause, covering everything from understanding symptoms and managing relationships to figuring out which treatments really work. 
 
Topics covered include:
Hot flushes and other physical symptoms
Psychological symptoms
Sex, libido and contraception
HRT and other treatments
Lifestyle changes
Health after the menopause
 
Written in positive, uplifting and light-hearted style, with plenty of quotes from real women, this book shows you how to not just survive, but thrive through the menopause, letting you remain you.
