It took me 12 years to make my menopause transition (age 44-56). In that time I learned a lot about what it takes to make necessary changes to keep healthy and comfortable during this major biological change. I captured the steps I took in my book, Make It a Fair Fight, The Three-Step Battle Plan to Win the War against Menopause symptoms. You can read more in the Book Description tab. I've been an advocate for women's health, and, as a biologist myself, I began to study the science of hormone decline in women.
