EDITORIAL REVIEWS | Product Description I'm too Young for Menopause-So Why Do I Feel Like this? You could be experiencing unexplained weight gain...fatigue...mood swings...loss of libido...fibroids...tender or lumpy breasts...endometriosis...PMS...infertility...memory loss...migraines...very heavy or light periods...cold hands and feet...or a combination of these symptoms. You may have been told they're "nothing," or stress, or even menopause-and offered surgery, antidepressants, or prescription hormones. But the startling truth is that you may be suffering from premenopause syndrome-and there are simple, safe solutions. When John Lee wrote the groundbreaking What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause, younger women started asking if natural progesterone could help them, too. In this book Dr. Lee, with women's health expert Jesse Hanley, M.D., brings you a revolutionary nonprescription "Balance Program" to restore your gynecological health, energy, and sex drive-and even slow the aging process before menopause, and beyond. |

| Must read for women 30 and up! by K. Rock (OH USA) 5 Stars October 21, 2009 I only wish I would have found this book 11 years ago. My problems started in my 30's and prior to my hysterectomy I had four "female" surgeries and was put on some pretty nasty hormones to try and alleviate my symptoms. None of which solved the problems, which progressively got worse with each year. I was suffering was dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia,fibroids and ovarian cysts. I has a multitude of symptoms that had been communicated to my doctors and were ignored. In 2009 I has an ovarian cancer scare that resulted in a partial hysterectomy which found severe endometriosis and a complicated ovarian cyst which was only going to larger and bigger if it wasn't removed. I read this book after my surgery because my doctor wanted me to continue birth control pills to prevent reoccurrence of the endometriosis. My mother also died of breast cancer and I wanted to make life style changes that would lower my risk. This book will educate you on so many levels to what steps you can take to get your hormone levels stablized and live a happy, healthy life. My doctors never took the time to educate me on why or rather what was causing all my problems. After reading this book I now understand.
| | Excellent book, lots of detail and references, easy to understand by C. Anderson (Reno NV United States) 5 Stars October 19, 2009 This book and "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause" have a lot of cross over. I actually wish there was only 1 book because really to get everything that is covered in both books, you have to get and read 2. I didn't really mind though because they are so good.
These books are full of information about hormone replacement, what works what doesn't. Lots of detail and lots of referenced studies and papers. But still esay to read and follow. It's the kind of book where you want to dog-ear half the pages so you don't forget something you read.
All women should read this. I am quite knowledgeable about health, but didn't really understand what progesterone and estrogen do and how they work.
Bottom line is that almost all women (and men too!) in industrial societies are estrogen dominant and need progesterone to balance it. The estrogen comes from petrochemicals and toxins in our environment (plastics, etc) and eating lousy food. As well as from being overweight (fat cells make estrogen because nature wants you to be fertile when food is plentiful.)
| | Wife is Enjoying - Life is Changing and Knowledge is Great by Mario Balestreri 5 Stars September 12, 2009 Helps to have a good idea of what is going on and when. As we get older, its always hard to understand the changes we are going through. We have purchsaed a couple books to make sure we see if there are other views or ideas on what is going on that will work best for my wife. So far things are going well.
| | Invaluable Information by cjpschwartz (Southwest Florida) 5 Stars September 10, 2009 The information in this book was invaluable in determining what to do for pre-menopause. The recommendations and information went well beyond what my own doctor presented me with. I did not need anti-depressants, as my doctor would prescribe. I just needed to make some changes in my lifestyle, eating and a little natural hormone (progesterone), to help me take my life back in my own hands. I highly recommend this book. I have shared it with some of my friends and they were so thankful to see their own problems addressed in this book.
| | So Thankful I Found This Book! by Tahiti Girl at Heart (TN) 5 Stars August 07, 2009 I am in my early forties and had begun to experience bouts of extreme insomnia. I was so exhausted. Once I finally fell asleep, I was only able to stay asleep for a couple of hours at a time. I also noticed that my periods, which had always been like clockwork, were starting to come early one month and late the next. Then, I had my first hot flash. Oh no, I thought. Is this a sign of menopause? I'm too young for this! I began searching the internet for menopause symptoms and came across a recommendation for this book. I purchased the Kindle version and read it in one night. One of the women mentioned in the book had symptoms identical to mine. The book recommends the use of a natural progesterone cream for the symptoms. I decided to give it a try. After only one week using the cream, I was like a different person. My insomnia is now gone! I am able to sleep for 8 hours a night. My energy level is higher than it has been in years. My periods are back to normal and I haven't experienced any more hot flashes. For anyone who is having similar symptoms, I urge you to read this book.
