The Menopause Companion

The Menopause Companion is a steady, intelligent guide through a phase of life that’s too often dismissed, medicalized, or wrapped in false cheer.

Rather than treating menopause as a problem to be fixed this book explains what’s actually happening in the brain, hormones, metabolism, sleep, mood, and temperature regulation as reproductive cycling winds down.

Grounded in physiology and clinical reality, The Menopause Companion helps readers understand their options clearly: lifestyle changes, hormone therapy, non-hormonal medications, and what evidence does and doesn't support. It also names the cultural silence and confusion that leave many people feeling unprepared and isolated at exactly the moment they need clarity.

This is not a manifesto and not a miracle cure. It’s a calm, practical companion for people who want to understand their bodies, make informed choices, and move through menopause with less fear, less noise, and more agency.
