Clear, concise, helpful

While this book helped me self-diagnose my earliest menopausal symptoms, I think the authors deserve a real thumbs up for the information on how to find the best doctor - and how to talk to this doctor once you find him or her. Talking to my gyno about the change proved VERY frustrating - but this book made me feel like I wasn't alone and gave tips on how to get referred to a specialist in hormonal issues. What a difference! Thanks Drs Teaff and Wiley!

Really easy to read, yet full of info

This book has helped me a lot - especially the part on how to tell the difference between PMS and perimenopause. The chapter on how to find the right doctor was also right on the money. I am in my mid-forties and trying to conceive. Dr. Teaff and Wiley have more information on middle age fertility and how to keep it going than any of the other dozens of books I've read on the topic.

Helpful, practical advice

This book is lying on my bedside table. I found the authors addressed the symptoms of perimenopause in an easy-to-read, and easy-to-relate to manner. They presented information about hormone therapy but didn't insist that it was the only way to go. I never got the sense they were trying to sell their readers on a particular treatment or point of view, just to rather lay out all the options.

An excellent overview of perimenopause and menopause.

Oprah, surely you have read this book. Don't let your audience members think all of their symptoms should be categorized under PMS. Women in their 20s, 30s,and 40s need more information than the medical profession provides before age fifty. Teaff and Wiley's proactive approach is ideal for professional women. It addresses the real situations--traveling on a business trip, planning late pregnancies in the perimenopausal stage, understanding the hormones, and seeking appropriate solutions. My reading group of doctors, housewives, lawyers, consultants, professors, and teachers has read it and re-read it numerous times. This book has not only stimulated meaningful discussion among the women but also bridged an unnecessary gap between women and men in understanding an important topic. I strongly recommend it for women and for men who care about women--spouse, partner, mother, sister, aunt or friend. C. L. Brown

Excellent

Perimenopause is a subject that most women have never heard of. This book prepares women for the symptoms and changes that occur in their body as the approach menopause. Just as puberty does not just suddenly occur, menopause is preceded by many changes in the body. In a well written and well researched manner, the author describes each symptom and its causes, and discusses treatments, both medical and nontraditional. As a health professional I appreciated it's supportative, "here are the facts, make your own decisions" style. As a matter of fact, I am buying this copy to replace the one that I am always loaning out to friends
