What Nurses Know ... Menopause
by Karen Roush (9781932603866)

The end of menstruation and fertility is a natural biological process, not a medical condition. Even so, the physical and emotional symptoms of menopause can disrupt a women's life and require treatment if severe. Often, women arrive at their menopause years without knowing anything what they might expect, or when or how the process starts and how long it may last. With confusion over the risks of estrogen therapy, the proliferation of alternative therapies, concerns about osteoporosis and heart disease, and questions about sexual health, the need for clear useful information is endless. What Nurses Know . . . Menopause sheds new light on this natural biological process and its symptoms from a trusted source: nurses. Simply organized and clearly written, it provides individuals, their families, friends, and healthcare practitioners the answers they need and want. Special features include numerous sidebars and call out boxes with "Nurse Notes," definitions of common terms, lists of support groups, and online tools and specific websites to help those living with MS.
