Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As I approached my early forties I started to experience symptoms from my body and mind that I had not experience before, with the emotional rollercoaster and the cold and hot temperatures of my body. So I got tired of these effects and started researching what was going on with these high emotions. After describing these symptoms to a client who's an OB-GYN specializing in Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), I discovered I was going through peri-menopause. It was then that I began my journey with menopause, and after finding several tools, and self help factors I wanted to share this experience with women all over the world. In this way, I began my "marathon for menopause, ." I found myself experiencing a major change in life, a change quite unfamiliar to me. I embarked on new, unexplored territory with weight gain, hot flashes, moodiness, which taken together-made me unpleasant to be around. Then it hit me; I was experiencing what my mother and countless other women before me had experience; the unknown and unwanted guest of menopause. I am sharing mine, and other women experiences with others in the hope that they too can feel great and look great while going through the "change." Not everyone will be open to the challenge. However, getting better through healing and embracing menopause is worth the effort.

Book excerpt: “Hot and Bothered removes the shame, disdain, and mystery that’s surrounded menopause….An informative, entertaining and desperately needed book.” —Jen Sincero, author of You Are a Badass When Jancee Dunn hit her mid-forties, she was bombarded by seemingly random symptoms: rampant insomnia, spring-loaded nerves, weirdly dry mouth, and Rio Grande-level periods. After going to multiple doctors who ran test after fruitless test, she was surprised to finally discover the culprit—perimenopause. For more than two decades, Jancee had been reporting on mental and physical health. So if she was unprepared for this, what about all the women who don’t write about health for a living? Hot and Bothered is the book she wishes existed as she was scrambling for information: an empowering, research-based guide on how women can tackle this new stage of life. Menopause isn’t a disease, but a natural, normal life transition. Why, then, are we still speaking in whispers about something that affects half the earth’s population? Through in-depth interviews with renowned menopause experts and trusted authorities, Dunn peels back the layers on this still-mystifying topic with her trademark humor and unpacks the science on both hormonal and nonhormonal treatments. She provides actionable ways to improve sleep, sex, moods, mental clarity, and skin; details the latest treatments for hot flashes; and explores the best practices to stop “peezing” (that would be peeing when you sneeze, thanks to your new urinary issues). Dunn’s clear, easy-to-follow advice will help you reclaim yourself—and fully embrace life’s next chapter.
