And Other Questions I Ask Myself As I Attempt to Age Without Apology

When Nina Collins entered her forties she found herself awash in a sea of hormones. As symptoms of perimenopause set in, she began to fear losing her health, looks, sexuality, sense of humor-perhaps all at once. Craving a place to discuss her questions and concerns, and finding none, Nina started a Facebook group with the ironic name, "What Would Virginia Woolf Do?," which has grown exponentially into a place where women-most with strong opinions and fierce senses of humor--have surprisingly candid, lively, and intimate conversations.

Mid-life is a time when women want to think about purpose, about how to be their best selves, and how to love themselves as they enter the second half of life. They yearn to acknowledge the nostalgia and sadness that comes with aging, but also want to revel in their hard-earned wisdom.

Part memoir and part resource on everything from fashion and skincare to sex and surviving the empty nest, What Would Virginia Woolf Do? is a frank and intimate conversation mixed with anecdotes and honesty, wrapped up in a literary joke. It's also a destination, a place where readers can nestle in and see what happens when women feel comfortable enough to get real with each other: defy the shame that the culture often throws their way, find solace and laugh out loud, and revel in this new phase of life.

Menopause and the Vindication of Natural Life

A brave, brilliant, and unprecedented examination of menopause Menopause hit Darcey Steinke hard. First came hot flashes. Then insomnia. Then depression. As she struggled to understand what was happening to her, she slammed up against a culture of silence and sexism. Some books promoted hormone replacement therapy. Others encouraged accepting the coming crone. Beyond that, there was little that offered a path to understanding menopause in a complex, spiritual, and intellectually engaged way. She felt lost until she encountered a scientific fact that had escaped her through the early stages of dealing with this life change: the only two creatures on earth that go through menopause, she discovered, are human women and female killer whales. Her fascination with this fact became the starting point for Flash Count Diary, a powerful exploration into aspects of menopause that have rarely been written about, including the changing gender landscape that reduced levels of hormones brings, the actualities of transforming desires, and the realities of prejudice against older women. Steinke learned that in the seventeenth century women who had hot flashes in front of others could be accused of being witches, that the model of Marcel Duchamp's famous Étant donnés was a post-reproductive woman, and that seeing whales in the wild can lead to orcagasms. Flash Count Diary takes readers from Brooklyn to the red light district in Amsterdam, and finally to a watery encounter with a wild killer-whale matriarch in Washington State’s Salish Sea. Flash Count Diary will change the way you think about menopause. It’s a deeply feminist book, honest about the intimations of mortality that menopause signals but also an argument for the ascendency, beauty, and power of the post-reproductive years in women’s lives.

A Positive Approach to Surviving Menopause

"Lonnie Barbach, Ph.D., bestselling author of For Yourself and For Each Other, has written an extraordinary life- and sanity-saving guide that turns the myth of menopause upside down and shows women the way to make the "third third" of life their most productive and fulfilling. Cutting-edge research and the most up-to-date information available distinguish The Pause. Here, for the first time, women have access to options and insights from the foremost authorities in the field of menopause. In addition, drawing on her extensive work on sexuality, Dr. Barbach discusses in detail the sensitive subjects of intimacy, desire, and sexual practices and provides truly helpful advice. You'll find out about early, often-overlooked symptoms of menopause - and what to do about them; managing moodiness, irritability, rage, and feelings of anxiety; herbal remedies and vitamin supplements that work for PMS and menopause-related difficulties; how to get dramatic relief with exercise and diet adjustment; the risks and benefits of hormone-replacement therapy and how to make sure it is tailored to your specific needs; ways to benefit from hormones while you're still menstruating; dozens of remedies for hot flashes and headaches; explicit suggestions to ease sexual difficulties - and even make sex better than ever; Chinese herbs, acupuncture, and homeopathic treatments; and how to handle physicians who may not offer the information or help you need. Plus, there's a chapter for men to help them cope - and truly understand." "In The Pause, Lonnie Barbach revolutionizes menopause - just as she revolutionized female sexuality with her groundbreaking work on sex and intimacy. Drawing on firsthand testimony from hundreds of women and the most up-to-the-minute medical research available, Lonnie Barbach provides invaluable guidance to help us feel in control, to empower us to make informed choices about the options facing us, and to let us fully understand and experience this major turning point, not with fear and discomfort but with strength, confidence, and glowing good health."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Overcome Menopause by Solving Your Hidden Thyroid Problems





From New York Times bestselling author and nationally recognized patient advocate Mary J. Shomon comes a groundbreaking guide to safely managing menopause through a better understanding of and better care for your thyroid.

If you're one of the forty million American women struggling through menopause, you probably know all about the symptoms of fatigue, weight gain, and depression. But what you may not know is that the drop in reproductive hormones frequently triggers a thyroid slowdown--a "thyropause"--that can be the main cause for those troublesome symptoms. In fact, you may not even need hormone therapy, wild yam and progesterone creams, or herbs like black cohosh for a symptom-free menopause. What you really need is to begin to pay attention to your thyroid.

In The Menopause Thyroid Solution, Mary J. Shomon will help you:

 * Recognize the symptoms of a thyroid problem versus those of menopause
 * Learn how to get your problems diagnosed and treated
 * Find out what and how to eat, what medications to consider, what supplements to take, and what lifestyle changes to make
 * Improve your metabolism and increase your energy

The Trusted Women's Resource with the Latest Information on HRT, Breast Cancer, Heart Disease, and Natural Estrogens

This book is needed more than ever. The National Institute of Health interrupted their huge HRT (hormone replacement therapy) study in July 2002 after they found that Prempro, a combination of estrogen and progestin, had detrimental health effects which include an increased risk for breast cancer, heart disease, and stroke.

This new edition examines the latest information about HRT and the safer alternatives. It completely validates the author's long-held bias against HRT and shows women, whether perimenopausal, menopausal, or postmenopausal, how they can maintain and improve their health and well-being without the use of synthetic hormones.

The book offers complete information on menopausal symptoms and effects and ways to alleviate them. Updated sections cover heart disease (including hormonal effects, the role of cholesterol, diet, and supplements), osteoporosis, and breast cancer. The section on exercise and nutrition for health and weight is completely rewritten. The latest information on non-hormonal remedies to balance hormones is what is needed by every woman wanting to avoid HRT.

Cruising Through Menopause with Attitude and Style

"A sassy, accurate, and enormously helpful romp through the midlife transition known as menopause . . . I highly recommend it to all women who want to embrace all the possibilities offered by this change, including vibrant health, a sense of humor, a renewed sense of purpose, and the best sex of your life."--Christiane Northrup, MD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Wisdom of Menopause
 
Brit-pop icon and outspoken menopause ambassador Meg Mathews refused to move quietly into this stage of midlife. Rejecting the idea that we should live in fear, suffer silently, or medicate ourselves unnecessarily through this natural hormonal shift, Mathews set out to get answers and advice from the medical establishment, alternative therapists, and her many friends in the midst of "the change." When she launched the Megs Menopause website, it quickly became the trending online destination for pre- and menopausal women all over the world. The New Hot is her no-holds-barred guide to menopause, designed to empower and entertain in equal measure, including:

* The latest information about hormone therapy and bioidentical hormone therapy
* Her best tips and techniques for coping with menopausal symptoms (There are officially thirty-four possible symptoms; Mathews has personally dealt with thirty-two!)
* Dishy, girlfriend-to-girlfriend advice about what to really expect when you're aging 

Honest, stylish, and informative, The New Hot will help you take on menopause--and keep you sense of self, style, and humor intact.
