The menopause. An emotionally complex issue that can trigger a whole host of physical and mental side effects. So why aren't we talking about it?
This is the book that Andrea McLean wished for as she found herself in uncharted territory, grappling with the physical aftershock of a hysterectomy and the psychological fallout of a difficult menopause. Typically candid, covering all you need to know, including tips and tricks on diet, exercise and even your sex life, Andrea brings her trademark humour and honesty to a very hot topic.

As a young-ish woman experiencing the bewildering, unsettling and sometimes extreme symptoms of peri menopause, all I’ve wanted is to be able to talk to a girl friend who understands the journey. Someone who’s been there, seen it, done that. Someone who can hold your hand, tell you not to worry, and reassure you that you’ll come though the other side in time. That is exactly what Andrea has achieved with Confessions of a Menopausal Woman. Her warmth and characteristic sensitivity shine through in her honest account of her own suffering - not to be a bleeding heart, but to be a guiding light for other women who are right behind her. Part memoir, part self-help, this book is must-have-menopause-manual for every girl who wants to feel her best in a time of change.
Anna Richardson, TV presenter, writer, mental health warrior
