<div> Women approaching midlife are plagued with insomnia, fatigue, depression, forgetfulness, low<BR>libido, and a general sense of malaise. Yet no matter what they try, they are unable to find true (or<BR>lasting) relief. They are dismissed by doctor after doctor without a definitive diagnosis—told that their<BR>symptoms are either in their heads or just an expected part of the aging process. But Dr. Kathy Maupin<BR>knows that this isn’t true.<BR> As one of the country’s leading experts on hormonal balance—and as a woman who experienced<BR>these symptoms herself—Dr. Maupin has identified a debilitating and largely unknown health condition<BR>that is affecting millions of women: testosterone deficiency. While most people associate testosterone<BR>with men, it's one of the most vital hormones in women, and one of the first hormones that women begin<BR>to lose as they enter their 40s. Dr. Maupin’s own research has shown that the symptoms of aging are<BR>initiated and accelerated by testosterone loss.<BR> The book’s highlights include:<BR>• Tips for dealing with mood swings, changes in sex drive, and maintaining healthy relationships<BR>• Surprising information on the long-term effects and health risks of testosterone loss<BR>• Common myths and misconceptions regarding estrogen and testosterone replacement therapy<BR>• Questionnaires throughout to help readers determine their individual hormone deficiencies<BR>• Real stories and personal experiences Dr. Maupin’s patients share<BR> In The Secret Female Hormone, Dr. Maupin and therapist Brett Newcomb bring vital information<BR>about testosterone to the general public for the first time as they share the latest research on testosterone<BR>replacement therapy for women and its effects. Speaking in clear and practical terms, they show readers<BR>how to find the right treatment plan for their individual needs. This authoritative guide is bound to be a<BR>bible for women everywhere in their quest to understand the importance of testosterone in their own<BR>lives, so they can reclaim their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.<BR></div>
