Androgen Disorders in Women Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I would highly recommend this book to women who suffer from pcos, hirsutism, obesity, infertility, menstrual irregularity, alopecia or hair loss, acne or oily skin, anxiety and depression. All of these symptoms dealwith high testosterone levels and can be dangerous if not treated asmentioned in the book. She addresses all the issues except for some herbswhich is why I rated this book a 4 instead of5. Clearly androgendisorders are a big problem not being taken seriously by the medicalprofession and others in the field. I suffer almost all of these symptomsand it helped me to realize that something is starting to be done or atleast someone like Theresa Cheung is taking these issues serious.The hightestosteronewhich she points out in the book can lead to diabetes,hypertention and cancer unless treated. I am grateful for the book and thedetailed explaination about the endocrine systems and how they play a rolein the body. One note, she mentions Saw Palmetto in the book as being anherb for body building due to the fact it raises testosterone levels. In myresearch this is not the case! I have found that Saw palmetto can possiblybe used to treat androgen disorders, which is not even mentioned in thebook. In my studies I have read that Saw palmetto can be used by women whohave an excess of androgenic hormones. Some of the indications for sawpalmetto include hirsutism, infertility, acne, amnenorrhea, pcos, debility,and deficiency. It helps to stimulate breast growth and to bring onmenstruation. Saw palmetto has demonstrated anabolic, antiandrogenic, andestrogenic activity.Theresa cheung addresses western medicine treatmentmethods quite clearly and there are many options. This book answered mostall of the questions I had dealing with excess testosterone.

Sex, Lies, and Menopause: The Shocking Truth About Synthetic Hormones and the Benefits of Natural Alternatives Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I read this book early in September, hot off the press, I immediately felt my heart and soul cry "yes, yes, yes". I have suffered terribly through menopause with lack of sleep, hot flashes, weight gain and an underlying depression, anxiety and irritibility that was driving me and my loved ones apart. After reading the book I got right down to business - convinced my brave gynocologist to prescribe the creams (I signed a release form), used a direct lab service for the blood testing, waited for the cycle of the moon to be correct and began the protocol on September 29.I've been on it for a month and am astounded by the changes - hot flashes gone, blessed sleep returning (7 hours straight last night), brain fog lifting, creativity returning, and my good humored old self coming home.Some breast tenderness during the last part of my cycle has been the only side effect. It has also been absolutely fascinating to know where I am in my hormone cycle each day and to understand and recognize the shifts as the hormones peak and ebb.
Yes, this book is controversial...I'm willing to be the guinea pig because I want my life back...I understand the risks of an unknown protocol...all my friends are watching and waiting.I've sent about 20 copies of the book so far.
The only criticism of the book for me is that the protocol is not as clearly presented as it could be.You really need to decipher exactly what tests are needed (measure total estrogen not estradiol levels), how much cream to buy total each month (it's 9 3ml syringes of each cream)and how to use all the blood sugar info (I haven't tackled that one yet.)My costs have been about $90 for the cream per month and $75 for each blood test (only needed for the first 3 months).I have chosen to do this outside my insurance.
The book also contains vital information for younger women about pregnancy, breast feeding and birth control pills.Many questions are also answered about cancer, puberty, weight gain,carbohydrates, yearly cycles, body systems etc.I loved the book just for knowledge gained about the totally of a woman's biological life.
I encourage everyone to read this book - analyze it, discuss it, share it, give it to your daughters.
I salute T.S. Wiley for her new approach, her evolutionary perspective and for the options she has given women of all ages.

Product Description:

Turning thirty years of medical and cultural wisdom on its head, Sex, Lies, and Menopause challenges both the medical establishment and modern feminists to prove that menopause does not have to be deadly.


In this revolutionary work -- a landmark that signals the true beginning of feminist medicine -- a doctor, a philosopher, and a scientist prove that by postponing marriage and motherhood, women have accelerated the aging process, resulting in earlier menopause and, ultimately for thousands, earlier death.


In Sex, Lies, and Menopause, T. S. Wiley, Julie Taguchi, M.D., and Bent Formby, Ph.D., offer strong evidence that the use of synthetic hormones leads to cancer and advise women to turn to natural hormone-replacement therapy -- derived from plants, not drugs -- to help them elevate their estrogen level for greater energy, libido, and intellectual capacity.


Provocative, empowering, and scientifically sound, Sex, Lies, and Menopause addresses the inherent benefits of natural progesterone, reveals the lies advanced by the medical and drug establishments, and challenges women to demand a medical future where their health comes first. The research presented in Sex, Lies, and Menopause will at last allow women to create their own plan of action to put themselves safely on the path to better health and hormonal balance at any stage of life.

Natural Hormone Balance for Women: Look Younger, Feel Stronger, and Live Life with Exuberance Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Dr Reiss obviously LOVES women...I have read over 25 menopause books and this is the BEST. It is written for all women to understand with great patience and caring. He has separated the hormones and clearly explains what each does and the symptoms of their imbalance. He includes contacts to locate a Dr in your area to help with the tests you will need to find out what you will need...not a "one size fits all" approach, but a customized just-for-you regimen of health to truly grow old gracefully....without the hot flashes, weight gain, fuzzy thinking, and loss of interest in your romantic life.
I would also recommend T.S. Wiley's book "Sex, Lies, and Menopause" which explains why we are seeing so much female cancer and how to protect yourself and your daughters from the problems our generation is experiencing.
Women who breeze thru menopause have had low estrogen levels all their lives, so the absence is not much of a shock. If you are contemplating a hysterectomy and your Dr does not do saliva hormone testing and have BIOIDENTICAL hormones ready for you to take afterwards, FIND a Dr thru the Women's International Pharmacy. You will avoid all the symptoms that are joked about....they are NO JOKE. These BIOIDENTICAL hormones DO NOT CAUSE CANCER!!!!!! They cause good sleep, weight loss, and finding yourself again.
