My rating: 4 of 5 stars
If you were born with uterus or will experience menopause at some point in your life, you owe it to yourself to get educated. What Fresh Hell is This? Perimenopause, Menopause, Other Indignities, and You by Heather Corinna is great is you are pissed off (especially at the patriarchy) and/or maybe don't fit into a neat box of the type of person who would experience menopause. I am fortunate to have found a doctor who understands perimenopause but many don't. You might not ever realize that it is what you are going through until you've been suffering for a very long time. The problem is many of the signs of perimenopause overlap with, well, everything else. This book can help you start to identify what might be perimenopause or menopause versus everything else. It is also going to offer you some basic options for dealing with the myriad of things being thrust upon you.
What I found most helpful about this book is Heather is angry. Were you born with a uterus and find that you suddenly have RAGE ALL THE TIME? Did you think it is because we are living in a dumpster trash fire world? It might be, or it might be perimenopause. Heather gets you.
Think you are too young to read a book about menopause? Think again because it will creep up on you before you know it.
