THE CHANGE BEFORE THE CHANGE Dr Laura E Corio & Linda G Kahn
You're in the prime of life. As far as you know, the menopause could be years away. So why is your body sending you such weird messages? Irregular periods you haven't seen since your teenage years; stubborn extra pounds you just can't shed; mood swings, irritability and worrisome memory glitches - these are just some of the symptoms that could indicate the perimenopause. The Change Before the Change outlines the symptoms of the perimenopause, the change that precedes the menopause by up to ten years, and often remains undiagnosed by doctors. Dr Laura Corio explains why this subtle hormonal shift occurs, how to get your symptoms under control and the impact of stress and diet. 448pp, 153mm x 234mm, softback, 2005
