Relax, This Won't Hurt : Painless Answers to Women's Most Pressing Health Questions

Summary: The only thing that bothered me about this book....
Review: ... is that it is sectioned off according to age groups, like 20s, 30s, 40s, and so forth... which makes it difficult to pin- point a particular topic that you're interested in UNLESS it just happens to fall in your catagory OR you read the book from cover to cover. The layout of the book also suggests that if you are in your 20s, you need not worry about facing the types of probelsm listed for women in their 30s, which may not necessarily be true in all cases... It depends on the individual health profile of each female...

Summary: A Concise Book About Women's Health
Review: This is a wonderful book for any woman from Teens to Age 100! It is like sitting down and having a chat with a friend who happens to be a doctor. There is no stuffiness, institutional reading but a concise place to learn about what is happening to your body as a woman ages, what tests she needs and what the results could be and possibly mean without causing panic. The reader doesn't feel like she is either being spoke down to or that the information is so technical, it flies over one's head.

The reader is not only treated to knowledge to empower her to good health to grow old by but the material is also practically related in Dr. Reichman's sharing of her own stories.

I think this is a must have for any woman's personal library!

Summary: TONS OF INFORMATION
Review: What is impressive about this book is that it covers a wide range of women's health issues: hormone changes, osteoporosis, menopause, bladder infections, fertility/infertility, cancer, fibroids, endometriosis, high blood pressure, heart disease, and the importance of diet and exercise. While the book covers a vast variety of issues, there are some topics that are quite brief and not as detailed as you will find in other books. Although there are topics which cover virtually every age of a woman's life, the emphasis is placed on the teen years through to the thirties. If you are looking for a more in-depth book, you may find what you are looking for in "Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom" by Dr. Christiane Northrup, and if approaching menopause, be sure to read, "The Wisdom of Menopause" also by Dr. Christiane Northrup. Northrup's books are complete, in-depth, extremely well written and both are more than deserving of five-star ratings.
