Publisher's Summary

'The menopause is a weird one, as a woman you know that the likelihood of it happening to you is pretty inevitable, but no-one really tells you what to expect.'  

So says Jenny Eclair, who, with her trademark humour, will share her experience of what can be a difficult time for many women, from the emotional side of life - missing the woman you were, the empty nest, mood swings - to the health aspects of the menopause, starring the hot flush and also periods (lack of), weight problems, insomnia and other issues.  

Upbeat and honest, Jenny shares her new-found hobbies, the joy of pets and how to make the best of the different but still-fabulous you.

Explains so much!

Loved this book. As a 57 year old female it sure explained a lot. Thanks for writing it!

Depressing

I understand this is suppose to be a comical outlook on menopause but i found it depressing.
Life with or after menopause doesn’t have to be all weight gain, moodiness and down hill endings.
I should have looked for a book that gives hope and understanding not one persons out loud thoughts of giving up, looking back with regret and giving in without effort . But These our only my out loud thoughts.
Her voice is very calming & soothing as she’s telling you its all shite.
