Synopsis
The complete one-stop guide to the peri-menopause and menopause, by Dr Philippa Kaye, with a foreword by Vanessa Feltz.
Menopause is the last taboo. But it does not have to mean the end of your libido, of sex, of work, or of feeling like who you used to be
With modern treatments and evidence-based knowledge, no woman need suffer or “just about” manage. You are still who you are - let’s celebrate that. Let’s get informed and get empowered to make our own choices about our symptoms, our treatments, our minds and our bodies.
The M Word covers everything from understanding symptoms to managing relationships to which treatments really work. Discussing HRT as well as self-help and lifestyle tips, this book will be your companion through the years before, during and after the menopause.
Topics covered include:
Hot flushes and other physical symptoms; Psychological symptoms; Sex, libido and contraception; HRT and other treatments; Lifestyle changes; Health after the menopause . . . and much more!
Written in a positive, uplifting and light-hearted style, with plenty of quotes from real women, this book shows you how to not just survive, but thrive through the menopause, letting you remain you.

External Reviews
"An excellent read on everything you need to know about the menopause - informative, easy to digest and well balanced." - Dr Sara Kayat, resident GP for This Morning.
"I'll be recommending this book to my patients - an eminently sensible and evidence-based guide for everyone to understand the menopause." - Dr Ellie Cannon, GP and The Mail on Sunday columnist.
"Turns out it's the menopause; less exciting than the ability to fly or disappear but seemingly just as mystical. This book is here to de-mystify the menopause.
Dr Kaye is my GP and over the years she has proved to be empathetic, interested and straight-talking. She's the mate who's always got your back, she knows her stuff and tells you exactly how it is.
In this book she walks you through the maze of the menopause, and guides you through all the twists and unexpected turns your menopausal journey will take you on. Talking about periods is no longer done in hushed tones - my teenage daughter and I loudly discuss her period and her little brother knows all about them - we need to achieve that openness around the subject of menopause, and this book is a very good place to start." - Sara Cox.
