Women tell their stories

No one asks a woman: ‘How’s the menopause?’ Unlike pregnancy, it is a private, sometimes lonely time, and often distressing for a woman and her uncomprehending family. Debra Vinecombe has interviewed twenty women whose honesty, warmth and touches of humour take the reader into their homes, doctors’ rooms, and work places to tell of sweaty sheets, memory fade-outs, anxiety attacks and treatment options.

‘Every woman should read these stories. So should her partner.’ – Susan Duncan
