Menopause Bootcamp: Optimize Your Health, Empower Your Self, and Flourish as You Age by Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz
3.5
I heard about this book and author on Laura Termaine's podcast. There is so little medical information or teaching about menopause out there - we get all this stuff about puberty in high school, but then flail around later in life. And, the sad reality is the medical community doesn't know much either - there's no money in "treatment" so there's no money for research.
This book is definitely written by a California-based doc. She shares her own life and experience, and approaches things from a holistic perspective, but there's not a ton of new information or facts or actionable content.
I started out reading it but ended up skimming by about halfway through. It's not terrible, it's just not great.
