About The Book

Menopause is a hot topic. By debunking myths, banishing shame, and demanding more equitable health care and workplace policies, celebrated journalists Mariella Frostrup and Alice Smellie have sparked a global dialogue and a menopause revolution.

Renowned journalists Mariella Frostrup and Alice Smellie are here to tell readers everything they need to know about menopause, with a mix of smart humor and comforting reassurance. In this guide that doesn’t shy away from any topic, the authors open up about their own menopause journeys, and provide the latest science and advice from America’s leading experts on everything from dealing with hot flashes to pursuing hormone therapy.

Diving into the history of menopause up to the present day, with stories from women from across the world at various ages and stages of their menopause journey, Menopause Is Hot opens a much-needed conversation about a topic half the population will go through but are only just starting to chat openly about. It’s designed to equip readers with the know-how to handle symptoms starting from perimenopause onwards, separating myths from the facts, all while offering hope, support, and friendly advice. Menopause Is Hot reframes the conversation and is an essential companion for women during menopause and beyond—not an end, but a beginning.
