Perimenopause is Ghetto
Perimenopause Is Ghetto
A Loud, Funny, Science-Filled Guide to Hormones, Hot Flashes & Losing Your Ever-Loving Mind
Nobody warns you about perimenopause.
Nobody tells you that one day you'll walk into a room and forget why you're there. That you'll cry because someone looked at you funny. That you'll be exhausted but unable to sleep. That you'll gain weight despite eating the same foods you've eaten for years. That your anxiety will suddenly show up uninvited and act like it pays rent.
And when you finally drag yourself to the doctor looking for answers, you're often told:
"Your labs are normal."
"That's just part of getting older."
"Maybe you're stressed."
Helpful.
After spending 26 years in the compounding pharmacy industry, working alongside pharmacists and helping women navigate hormone testing, hormone replacement therapy, thyroid issues, adrenal dysfunction, and the confusing world of perimenopause and menopause, I realized one thing:
Too many women are suffering because nobody explained what was happening to their bodies.
This book breaks down the science without making your eyes glaze over. You'll learn about:
✔️ Perimenopause and menopause symptoms
✔️ Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone explained in plain English
✔️ Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
✔️ Progesterone vs. synthetic progestins
✔️ Thyroid health and hormone balance
✔️ Stress, cortisol, and adrenal chaos
✔️ Brain fog, weight gain, anxiety, and mood swings
✔️ Hormone testing and how to advocate for yourself
✔️ How to find a provider who actually understands BHRT
Written with humor, honesty, and a healthy amount of sarcasm, this isn't a textbook. It's the guide I wish every woman had before her hormones decided to start throwing folding chairs.
