Preview books - Understanding the Menopause and HRT
An invaluable guide for every woman seeking to take charge of her own body at a time of critical change. Many women approaching the ‘change of life’ fear the upsets and disturbances. Others look forward to new-found freedoms. Most women adjust to the menopause easily, but still need to know what is happening and how to cope. For many women hormone replacement therapy is the answer; for others it is not. Dr Anne MacGregor explains the hormonal changes which cause the menopause and clearly sets out the pros and cons of HRT.
Dr MacGregor works in Reproductive Medicine and Sexual Health at St Bartholomew’s Hospital and is an instructing doctor for the Faculty of Family Planning and Reproductive Medicine. She is also Director of Clinical Research at the City of London Migraine Clinic.
