New Releases by Carrie Anton

A straight-talking perimenopausal primer for women navigating their changing bodies as it goes through the midlife hormonal roller coaster. What’s a gal gotta do to get some hormone info around here? Pubescent girls may be given books like Our Bodies, Ourselves or American Girl’s The Care and Keeping of You to catch a clue about what’s on the horizon. But ladies in their late thirties to early fifties have been left in the dark, with a laundry list of physical, emotional, and mental symptoms and not a resource in sight—until now. It’s Probably Perimenopause is a much-needed Perimenopause 101 that feels akin to an on-the-couch convo with your best (doctor) friend, filled with laughter, tears, and all the feels in between.
