The Menopause Plan: A Guide to Aging Gracefully and Maintaining Sexual Vibrancy

The dynamic nature of menopause is revealed through the stories of twelve women, from Sofia who experiences early-onset menopause at 43 and chooses a natural organic route, to Nadia a sexually active 79 year old with a boyfriend 25 years younger than herself. Menopause is shown to be a decades-long process that with proper guidance and treatment can be a gentle turning of the wheel instead of a difficult life experience. The Menopause Plan explains menopause from the first skipped period, hot flashes, mood swings, insomnia and more. But it also reveals the Silent Menace of Menopause that is the worst effect of the change-of-life, vaginal atrophy. Vaginal atrophy begins with the first skipped period and continues unabated until the most senior of years. It causes loss of sexual desire, difficulty in achieving orgasms and painful or difficult intercourse. It is both progressive and permanent. This is true for all women. Dr. Tracey Fein’s The Menopause Plan guides women through all the phases of menopause with treatments designed to alleviate the traditional symptoms of menopause while preventing and reversing vaginal atrophy including the Mona Lisa Touch laser vaginal rejuvenation treatment. It is a must-read for women over 40 approaching menopause as well as older women seeking guidance for existing symptoms.
