1) Paperback Book Menopause Guidebook by The North American Menopause Society. It isn´t easy wading through the numerous publications and websites that are authored by self-proclaimed "menopause experts". I didn´t know what was accurate. That´s why I´m glad I found this book. I knew I could count on sound medical advice from these menopause experts with medical credentials who backed up their words with scientific research. This book presents all the options - including the specifics on nonhormonal remedies and self-care information - without telling me what I "should" do. I like that. I visited their website, too, and found all kinds of information including referral lists of menopause discussion groups and doctors who passed a menopause exam. I read this book cover to cover, then took it with me when I visited my doctor. I really felt prepared to make decisions about my health that were right for me.¤

2) Paperback Book Menopause Guidebook by The North American Menopause Society. This book is written from a medical slant and although it´s very good at doing that, it lacks specifics of what women can do to make their menopause a positive experience. As Host of Bellaonline´s menopause web site, I hear from women every day asking how to reduce hot flashes without taking hormones, whether they should use black cohosh, what they should eat, and a million other questions. I wish this book would have provided more specific self-care information by asking menopausal women what they found useful.¤

This updated version reflects the impact of recent studies on current practices related to hormone therapy and provides evidence-based information about treatment options including prescription and non-prescription drugs, as well as complementary and alternative therapies. The additional resources listed provide other recommended sources for information. The Menopause Guidebook is required reading for informed decision-making about the many choices women face related to menopause and mid-life health.¤

4) Paperback Book Menopause Guidebook by The North American Menopause Society. As a physician and educator I find the new menopause guidebook an excellent if not indispensable resource for myself and my patients. The information is current, suberbly researched and easy to understand.

This recently updated booklet is a product of the North American Menopause Society (NAMS) and includes information about the menopause transition, midlife health issues, traditional and nontraditional treatments and more. The tone of the booklet is positive and unbiased and respects the uniqueness of each woman´s menopause experience. NAMS is a medical society dedicated to consumer and professional education, menopause research and advocacy. This booklet is an example of their important work and a must have for women entering the midlife phase of their lives.¤
