For years, Our Bodies, Ourselves has provided readers with indispensable information on women's health and sexuality. Now the book's authors, the nonprofit Boston Women's Health Book Collective, has brought the same knowledge and perspective to their new book, Our Bodies, Ourselves: Menopause. The book combines up-to-date medical information, anecdotes from a diverse group of women, and informed perspectives on the emerging health issues that affect women's lives.
Hot Topics include: Female sexual dysfunction at midlife myth or reality? How do commercial interests affect treatments for menopause? Is hormone treatment safe? And who should take it? What do women need to know about heart disease and osteoporosis? Are natural or bioidentical hormones better than synthetic hormones? Can herbs help with hot flashes or insomnia?
We will be carrying excerpts from the book and blogs from OBOS website on Vibrance's sites. Read the first except : "10 Myths for Women Over 40".
