Think perimenopause is just hot flushes and the odd missed period? Bless. Think again. This is the first ever Aussie guide to perimenopause that says it like it is-raw, real, and ridiculously funny. Health advocate and journalist Shelly Horton went from media powerhouse to a hormonal hot mess in the ICU, all because she had no idea what perimenopause actually was. Spoiler alert: it’s not just for “old ladies” and it’s definitely not just a few sweaty nights.
I’m Your Peri Godmother is your ultimate survival guide through the hormone hurricane – with expert advice from menopause legends like Dr Louise Newson, Dr Mary Claire Haver, and Dr Kelly Casperson. Plus, it’s stacked with evidence-based treatments, laugh-out-loud stories, and brutally honest truths that’ll have you yelling “same!” Now, she’s breaking the silence and dishing up everything you really need to know with zero shame and a whole lotta sass.
The truth about HRT (and whether it’s your new bestie)
How to handle insomnia, anxiety, mood swings, weight gain and bleeding like a crime scene
Which supplements actually help (and which are just overpriced snake oil)
Why your vagina needs TLC – and we’re not kidding
How to survive work without rage-quitting on the daily
Shelly’s your fierce, fabulous, no-bullshit peri godmother. She’s here to wave her magic wand (and maybe a bottle of shiraz), hold your hand, and get you through perimenopause without losing your mind – or your sense of humour.
Buy it. Read it. Share it. Let’s smash the silence together.
