Perimenopause and menopause mark significant transitional periods in a woman's life, often shrouded in mystery and misinformation. In This Changes Everything by Niki Bezzant, readers are offered an essential, comprehensive guide that demystifies these critical stages. This engaging, easy-to-read book leverages the latest specialist research along with personal anecdotes from real women to provide answers to the most pressing questions surrounding menopause. The author aims to replace confusion with clarity and empowerment, tackling the myths and stigmas head-on.

This indispensable guide provides in-depth insights and practical advice on a broad range of topics. From understanding the physical transformations to navigating mental health challenges, Bezzant addresses it all. She speaks candidly about fertility, relationships, natural remedies, and Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), offering a well-rounded view of what works and what doesn't. The book also confronts societal taboos and sexism, encouraging women to embrace this stage of life with confidence and knowledge.

Among the various subjects covered, readers will find detailed information on:

  • When menopause happens early
  • HRT, MHT, and other treatments
  • Periods
  • Hot flushes, night sweats, and heart palpitations
  • Weight gain and body changes
  • Migraines
  • Mood changes, anxiety, and depression
  • Gut issues
  • Sex, libido, and relationships
  • Sleep and insomnia
  • Alcohol
  • Exercise, nutrition, and healthy eating
  • Menopause in the workplace
  • And much more

Praise for This Changes Everything underscores its impact:

"This book covers everything. No snake oil, no sugar-coating and, above all, a celebration of the greatest change a woman will go through after puberty. Wish I'd read it at 30, 40 and 50." - Robyn Malcolm

"Ever wondered what the f*ck was going on and what was going to happen next? It's all in here. The answers to the questions you have about the thing we're not supposed to talk about. Real stories, expert advice and a celebration of something that turns out to be so natural and normal that the other half of the human race is going to want to experience menopause, too." - Michèle A'Court, writer and comedian

This Changes Everything is more than a book—it's an empowering toolkit that equips women with the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions about their health and well-being during menopause and beyond. A must-read for any woman over the age of 35.
