The Wisdom of Menopause: Creating Physical and Emotional Health and Healing During the Change Hardcover – 6 March 2001

It is an excellent book that every woman should read. I love every page of it. So human.

The author has an easy style, she writes as though you were sitting in front of her at her surgery, going into the smallest of detail on how to use medications etc. She really leaves no stone unturned in her wish to help women at this point in their lives and sees it as a very positive time.She is a very knowledgeable gynaecologist who uses her own experience as well as those of her patients to illustrate the many different 'symptoms' of menopause and the years round it, with recommendations on how to deal with them. She uses her knowledge of medical, nutritional, psychological, emotional, spiritual and holistic methods to give a good range of possible routes through this important period in a woman's life.An excellent read and I think an important book.

This is exactly the perfect book I need,it was at a great price and in very good condition.Thank you so much...

Dr. Northrup gives us a lot of not only emotional insight; but, more importantly and why I bought her book, she gives so much factual information that doctors are too busy to give their patients (it would take hours to relay half of this information!) The information is even more valuable with all of the references and notes she has printed in the back of the book. I have ordered the saliva and urine tests she suggested and will see if I learn anything new; but, even if I don't, I feel better about taking responsibility in educating myself about my own health! A TREMENDOUS EDUCATION - even if you want to supplement it with other informational sources!

I bought this used, so what. I gave it to my friend who is questioning her menopause.

The book is awesome, exactly what I wanted. It gives a lot of information and awareness of that period of time ina women's life. I love the way of the approach and the conextion between the body and illnesses. The proper book wasn't in not so good state but this is not a problem of the writer.
