The goop hormone authority breaks through negative assumptions and offers an empowering new approach to taking charge of hormone shifts through every stage of a woman's life--especially menopause.For too long, women have been approaching menopause with a sense of dread and finality. Often, they don't want to talk about it until they're undeniably experiencing it--and even then might suffer symptoms in silence, either embarrassed to speak openly, or dejectedly resigned to thinking that years of discomfort and mood swings are just unavoidable. An M.D. with an appealing east-meets-west approach to women's health, Dr. Tasneem (known as Dr. Taz) has spent her career battling these outdated stereotypes and mindsets. Instead of framing menopause as an “ending” when everything suddenly changes, she sees a woman’s entire life as a spectrum of ever-shifting hormones, and menopause as just one point along that spectrum. The Hormone Shift breaks down what is happening behind the scenes in a woman's body throughout her life, explains how to prepare for whatever is coming next, and offers plans to keep the body in balance and minimize unwanted symptoms. Dr. Taz uses the wisdom of eastern modalities like Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine and integrates modern medical treatments for specialized acute care.  There's so much that women can do in the years leading up to perimenopause and menopause to prepare their bodies for the changes ahead, and make the shift smoother than they ever thought possible.
