There is a well-known social narrative that women of each generation internalize and believe to be true: it claims that being middle-aged means spending an entire decade at the mercy of our hormones. We learn to withstand the symptoms and never let others see us sweat (literally, because of the hot flashes.) If we go to our doctors for help, we often leave their office feeling disappointed after hearing that these symptoms are "normal" and "we are fine." So, we accept it: life as we knew it is over, and this is our new reality. To Doctor Tasneem Bhatia, "fine" isn't good enough, and menopause isn't the end. A woman's life is a spectrum of hormones in constant change, and menopause is but a mark in this spectrum. Hormone levels are fluid and exist in a continuum over which we can have plenty of control, and she can show us how. In The Hormone Shift, Doctor Tasneem analyzes exactly what is happening behind the scenes in a woman's body throughout her life, and explains how almost all aspects of her health are connected to hormones, from metabolism to mental health. This book offers a profound immersion in Western modalities, such as different tests to measure hormone levels and hormone replacement therapy, which will allow us to make knowledgeable decisions with the aid of our doctor. It also includes a vast amount of information regarding Asian healing modalities, such as Chinese traditional medicine and Ayurveda, techniques that could heal the body as a whole. It all comes down to a customizable plan to reset your hormones in thirty days, a specific strategy to make small lifestyle adjustments: diet, sleep hygiene, stress management, and more, since they can make a great impact by minimizing symptoms in each stage women go through.
