While drugs are life-saving in some situations, we can treat or even prevent many conditions with non-drug strategies and lifestyle changes. As a pharmacist, I believe it is better to prevent an illness or treat it early, than to wait until you need life-saving treatment. The more we understand the causes of disease and lifestyles that reduce risk, the better we can do this.
Part of a pharmacist's job is answering questions about health problems and how to prevent them. And, being a curious pharmacist, I have many questions of my own too. I love to read about new scientific developments that promote longer, healthier lives and about controversies that help improve treatment decisions.
Several years ago, I started writing about what I learned in a weekly blog. I also write articles for a national pharmacy journal and an American Nurse Practitioner website. This book is a collection of a few of the interesting questions I've researched, such as:
Are natural medicines safe?
Is it dangerous to be overweight?
Are microbes in our gut important?
What can I do to improve my memory?
What activities help us live longer?
How can I reduce my risk of anxiety, depression and stress?
How can I prevent heart disease and stroke?
What can I do to enjoy life more?
There are many general books on menopause. But this book is for those who want to know more than the basics. The information in Can I Speak to the Hormone Lady is based on scientific studies, 40 years experience as a pharmacist, and my work as a hormone specialist for over 10 years. Some have referred to me as “The Hormone Lady”.
As a pharmacist, I have knowledge of prescription and non-prescription menopause treatment, including herbal medications. I have also learned from and for the hundreds of hormone clients I treated over the years, many of whom came to me after experiencing problems with standard prescription treatments. In addition to referenced information and detailed descriptions of hormones and how they work, I have included the system for analyzing hormone imbalances I successfully used in my practice for years, with easy to read explanations of what to look for and what it all means.
The purpose of my book is to enable women to understand what is happening when hormones become imbalanced, and what they can do to get back to normal.
