The Menopause Brain: The New Science Empowering Women to Navigate Midlife with Knowledge and Confidence by Dr.Lisa Mosconi

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

Menopause and perimenopause are still baffling to most doctors, leaving patients exasperated as they grapple with symptoms ranging from hot flashes to insomnia to brain fog.

As a leading neuroscientist and women's brain health specialist, Dr Mosconi unravels these mysteries by revealing how menopause doesn't just impact the ovaries - it's a hormonal show in which the brain takes centre stage. The decline of the hormone estrogen during menopause influences everything from body temperature to mood to memory, potentially paving the way for cognitive decline later in life. To conquer these challenges successfully, Dr.

Mosconi brings us the latest approaches - explaining the role of cutting-edge hormone replacement therapies like 'designer estrogens,' hormonal contraception and key lifestyle changes encompassing diet, exercise and self-care.

Best of all, Dr Mosconi dispels the myth that menopause signifies an end, demonstrating that it's actually a transition. Contrary to popular belief, if we know how to take care of ourselves during menopause, we can emerge with a renewed, enhanced brain - ushering in a meaningful and vibrant new chapter of life.

'For so long, women experiencing menopause were saying "I don't feel right, my mind's gone, my memory's gone," and people laughed us off. The Menopause Brain shows that we were right, and it's heartening. Thank you, Dr Mosconi.' - DAVINA McCALL MBE, bestselling author, presenter, fitness guru and mother
