Estrogen Matters: Why Taking Hormones in Menopause Can Improve Women's Well-Being and Lengthen Their Lives -- Without Raising the Risk of Breast Cancer Hardcover – September 4, 2018

The Bible for women who want answers on hormones from one of the few professionals who understand our needs.

Excellent and informative. If you like research, all of the authors information is research driven and it shows you how flawed much of the world of research is. Also, shows us how the numbers and the outcomes can be manipulated in favor of whatever it is you want to sell or promote. This book was a real eye opener.

Highly recommend this book for every woman in peri and post menopause

Women over 70 still should be on hormone replacement. It does not cause Cancer.

This book has great information. A lot of technical information that is geared toward those in the medical profession. Any woman 40 and over should read this.

If I could send a copy of this book to every woman I knew over 30, I would absolutely do it! It’s filled with the right amount of information needed to make your own informed decision on whether HRT is for you. Grateful to learn so much I didn’t know and have the DATA to back it up. Now to have more doctors on board and as knowledgeable as we are after reading this book. THAT would be fantastic too!

As a surgical oncology nurse navigator, I was against taking estrogen. However, my hot flushes and insomnia were life-altering. I found a women’s clinic, run by female doctors and nurse practitioners, and reluctantly started HRT. They suggested this book. My opinion has changed! Shame on the WHI for their scare tactics. My hot flushes are now almost nonexistent and my sleeping patterns are greatly improved. I highly recommend this book, especially if you’re on the fence regarding HRT.

I believe every woman 35 (that's when your hormones start decreasing) and up needs to read this book if she wants to have a good quality of life (avoiding diseases of hormone deficiency) for as long as possible. I'm buying this new edition because I'm always lending out my current copy to the women I know. This book is written by Avrum Bluming MD who devoted his life to breast cancer research and caring for patients, and Carol Tavris MD who is an also distinguished science (among other subjects) writer. The writing is so clear. The facts so solid. Look up their names and listen to interviews with them. Take this book to you GYN (who probably is totally clueless and thinks HRT is poison).
