At long last! A readable book on HRT and its alternatives

A friend sent me a copy of this book from the USA. It really made me think about HRT.The author has set it out so clearly,with personal examples and lots of bite-sized information. I really liked this, as so many books have too much info in long paragraphs. She asks the reader to consider if she's at risk of certain conditions e.g osteoporosis,whereas lots of books and magazines seem to say all of us women are going to become osteoporotic. As well, there's valuable info about HRT and diabetes, bowel cancer,breast cancer and Alzheimer's disease.(I was amazed to read the research about the latter) The alternatives part was very revealing, I had no idea menopausal symptoms could be helped by herbal remedies and acupuncture.It's informative, practical, and accessible. It really helped me make a decision about whether or not to try HRT.Must mention the layout and photos - they are fabulous!
