Now in her groundbreaking new book, The Wisdom of Menopause, she will forever change your views on menopause. Filled with remarkable new health choices, research, and Dr. Northrup's own candid personal experience, The Wisdom of Menopause is the ultimate guide for every woman ready to come into her own.

Dr. Christiane Northrup exposes the unsettling correlation between menopause, relationship tumult, and physical illnesses in The Wisdom of Menopause. In this eye-opening read, Northrup -- the esteemed author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom -- describes how hormonal changes that accompany menopause contribute to a woman's heightened awareness of the satisfaction or dissatisfaction she experiences in her personal relationships.

A woman's reaction to these new feelings can determine both her emotional and physical well-being as she enters the postmenopausal years. If feelings of discontent are smothered and locked away, they may eventually manifest themselves in the form of physical illnesses including heart disease and breast cancer. But if the newfound feelings are examined, and relationships reassessed, there is the chance that the effects can be quite devastating.

Northrup herself went through such a "midlife crisis" and in offering up her own very personal account, the author affirms that armed with courage and wisdom, women can indeed come out on the other side of The Change happier and healthier. Far from a cautionary tale about the uncontrollable havoc menopause can wreak in women's lives and marriages, The Wisdom of Menopause is an empowering look at the ways in which women can embrace their own self-knowledge and better their lives.
