Perimenopause Please: the Psychological Impact of Perimenopause Nancy Whelan

Often unnoticed by many women, "perimenopause" is defined by the Mayo Clinic as the time when a woman's body begins its transition into menopause. In America, eighty percent of women will experience some negative perimenopausal signs and may not understand their cause. Perimenopause Please: The Psychological Impact of Perimenopause takes an in-depth look at the perimenopausal process in the typical American woman. Other medical literature explores the physiological and the outward physical aspects of perimenopause, but Perimenopause Please is unique because it investigates the most important and often ignored aspect of perimenopause: its psychological impact. Women will learn how to anticipate and acknowledge the positive elements of this new stage of life with enthusiasm, as well as how to accept and manage the negative elements. It really does get better!
