You are not crazy. You are not overreacting. And no, you do not just need to try yoga and drink less wine. Perimenopause hits women between thirty-five and fifty-five, sometimes a decade before menopause itself. Most general practitioners are still trained to dismiss it, and most women spend years sleeping badly, gaining weight, losing focus, and being told the labs are normal.
This book gives you the conversation your GP probably will not have. The 2002 Women's Health Initiative study, what it actually found, and how a press conference distorted twenty-three years of HRT prescribing. The exact lab tests to request, with the values that signal perimenopause versus menopause. Brain fog, rage, anxiety, and insomnia, with the receptor-level mechanism and the studies behind it. Transdermal estradiol versus oral, with the named clinical trials side by side.
Skriuwer writes for women who want the names, the doses, the studies, and the scripts to use at their next appointment. Inside you will find the eight clinicians by name who are pushing menopause medicine into the twenty-first century. The book will not tell you what to decide. It will give you the information your doctor probably has not.
