Do you think you are too
young for
menopause, but wonder why you feel so bad?
You could be experiencing
unexplained weight gain...
fatigue... mood swings... loss of libido... fibroids... tender or lumpy
breasts.... endometriosis... PMS... infertility... memory loss...
migraines...
very heavy or light periods... cold hands and feet... or a combination
of these
symptoms. You may have been told
they’re “nothing,” or stress, or even menopause – and offered surgery,
antidepressants or prescription hormones.
But the startling truth
is that you may be suffering from
premenopause syndrome – and there are simple, safe solutions. When John
Lee
wrote the groundbreaking What Your Doctor May NOT Tell You About
MENOPAUSE,
younger women started asking if natural progesterone could help them,
too. In
this book, Dr. Lee, with women’s health expert Jesse Hanley, MD, brings
you a
revolutionary nonprescription “Balance Program” to restore your
gynecological
health, energy, and sex drive – and even slow the aging process before
menopause, and beyond.
Three
Women, Different Lives... One Problem
Susan.
At
thirty-seven, married, and with a three-year-old son, she was about
twenty
pounds overweight, most of it in her stomach and hips.
She complained of fatigue, heavy
periods, and an inability to get pregnant again. An
exam discovered a fibroid tumor on her uterus. Her
doctor said she needed surgery...
Anne,
A
forty-four-year-old schoolteacher, she went to her doctor complaining
of weight
gain, depression, and headaches.
The prescription hormones she was given made her depression
worse and
headaches intolerable. When her pap smear revealed cervical dysplasia,
her
doctor recommended a hysterectomy....
Marie. Thin, attractive, and always in motion,
the thirty-nine-year-old attorney had night sweats, severe cramps in
the middle
of her menstrual cycle, and spotty bleeding throughout the month. A minor exploratory surgery uncovered
cysts on her ovaries. Her doctor
removed one ovary, and yet her symptoms are back....
These
women
were suffering from premenopause syndrome. Today they are symptom-free
and
healthy – without surgery or prescription hormones.
