Healthy Aging: Well-Being and Sexuality at Menopause and Beyond. Anna Ghizzani

Menopause is a time of challenge for every woman as it causes discomfort and confusion for those who have little information about the changes in their bodies, emotions and relationships, and how to deal with them. The book discusses the impact of hormone deprivation, the psychosocial and relational aspects of this time of life along with age-related conditions such as osteoporosis, mood changes, vasomotor and cardiovascular problems, cancer survival, and the pros and cons of treatments, such as hormone replacement therapy. Armed with valid and helpful information about the inevitable changes and how to take the best from them, the book gives women the key to aging positively. To close the circle on couple sexuality, it adds biological and clinical considerations on male sexuality.
