Review: Author Nisha Jackson, Ph.D., has specialized in women's health since 1991. She has dedicated her practice to hormonal wellness and is owner of Southern Oregon Health and Wellness, PC. Aside from her role as an author, Dr. Jackson is a radio and TV personality, national lecturer, spokesperson, and women's health advocate.

A nationwide survey by the National Women's Health Resource Center, released in November, 2003, revealed that close to 70 percent of women are confused about the safety of hormone therapy for menopausal-related symptoms. Almost half of them receive the majority of their information from media sources rather than their own healthcare provider. THE HOMONE SURVIVAL GUIDE is the perimenopausal woman's answer to any question or concern she may have related to this phase of her life. Dr. Jackson offers readers a 7-step program designed to balance hormones in this down-to-earth, easy-to-understand book chock-full of information related to perimenopausal issues. Hormonal fluctuation, hormone testing, hormonal treatment, diet as an effective way to create hormonal balance, stress, PMS, libido, thyroid problems, hot-flashes, and many more symptoms related to this syndrome are discussed, as well as ways to deal with them. No question goes unanswered and every symptom is addressed in this edifying book.

Any woman who is seeking a natural way to relieve perimenopausal symptoms should read this wonderfully clear, self-educating book. A book that should be in every doctor's office, as well as every home, to be read by women approaching or engaged in this phase in their life and shared with others.

Summary: Excellent!
Review: This book is a godsend. After reading it I learned that I'm not losing my grip on sanity...just on my hormones. Now when I go to the doctor, I'll be aware of the tests that should be ordered, how to understand their results, and what alternatives I have for treatment.

I love the fact that the book doesn't have to be read cover-to-cover. I can turn to the chapter about whatever concerns me most about my health. Dr. Jackson has written the medical information in an easy to understand manner, and her advice sounds like something my best friend would say.

I definitely recommend this book to every woman who has concerns about not only menopause, but hormone problems at any stage in life.
