The most up-to-date and comprehensive international work on menopause and postmenopause, this text has been assembled by recognized opinion-leaders throughout Europe. Current Management of the Menopause explores what menopause is exactly and its affect on different systems in the body, but it also discusses the non-medical aspects of the condition, such as women's reactions to making a transition into a new phase of life. The experts fully explain the medical issues, addressing controversies, such as that over the place of HRT in treatment of menopausal patients, head-on. This volume is ideal for gynecologists, general practitioners, and students in those fields.
