Now in its fourth edition, the groundbreaking, New York Times bestselling classic that has challenged and inspired an entire generation of women with a dramatically new vision of midlife—and that will continue to do so for generations to come.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"The Bible of middle-aged womanhood . . . a masterwork." —The Atlantic

Newly revised and updated for this fourth edition, this groundbreaking book has inspired more than a million women with a dramatically new vision of midlife—and will continue to do so for generations to come.

As Dr. Christiane Northrup explains, the "change" is not simply a collection of physical symptoms to be "fixed," but a mind-body revolution that brings the greatest opportunity for growth since adolescence. The choices a woman makes now—from the quality of her relationships to the quality of her diet—have the power to secure vibrant health and well-being for the rest of her life.

In this fourth edition, Dr. Northrup draws on the current research and medical advances in women's health, including:

  • Up-to-date information on hormone testing and hormone therapy, with new options and new research
  • A whole new take on losing weight and training your mind to release extra pounds
  • New insights on the relationship between thyroid, Hashimoto's Disease, and Epstein-Barr Syndrome
  • New, less invasive, and more effective fibroid treatments
  • Which supplements are better than botox for keeping skin looking youthful
  • How taking the supplement Pueraria mirifica can optimise many aspects of midlife health and wellness
  • Why older women don't need the HPV vaccine

With this trusted resource, Dr. Christiane Northrup shows that women can make menopause a time of personal empowerment—emerging wiser, healthier, and stronger in both mind and body than ever before.
