Kensington Books, 2002 - 352페이지
With millions of American women beginning to experience the symptoms each year, menopause is one of today's most widely -- and heatedly -- talked-about topics. It is vitally important that women know all their treatment options in order to make wise, informed choices. "Menopause": Bridging the Gap Between Conventional and Natural Medicine is the only book available that discusses today's conventional and alternative treatment options intelligently and without bias. In this clearly-written, balanced and authoritative work, three experts -- a practicing naturopathic physician, a medical doctor, and a psychiatrist who specializes in women's health -- explain the different symptoms and problems, explore the pros and cons of the various therapies currently used to treat them, and discuss why each may or may not be appropriate for individual women.

By providing all the facts women need to choose the mix of conventional and natural therapies that are right for them, "Menopause": Bridging the Gap Between Natural and Conventional Medicine empowers them to take charge of their own health. . .knowledgeably and confidently.
