This is a good Menopause 101. She lists the myriad symptoms you might be having, along with possible treatments, both pharmacological and not. Several symptoms that I did not know might be associated with menopause. Each section begins with a woman briefly describing her own symptoms and feelings, which made me feel like I wasn‘t alone and I wasn‘t crazy. Good starting point.

CBee I highly, highly recommend the menopause sub on Reddit. It‘s helped me so much! 2w
HeatherBookNerd @CBee thanks for the rec. Menopause has been kicking my ass! 2w
CBee @HeatherBookNerd oh honey, me too. I‘ve been dealing with a myriad of things for years now 😩😩😩 2w

If you have a uterus and are over 40, I recommend this!! I found out a lot of my lingering symptoms after treating my mast cell activation syndrome are due to menopausal changes. From sleepless nights to a burning mouth, it‘s good to know I‘m not alone. She makes concrete recommendations to take to your doctor. I feel so much more informed and ready to plan with my doctor at my next appointment. 5⭐️

So many books acquired this week! I got a few from the Amazon sale, including the tagged, which I‘m super excited about. My pre-ordered All Fours arrived, too, for #CampLitsy24. I‘m excited for Mother Doll and Murder Road from the longlist. The one that‘s hard to see is The Best American Essays 2023. Happy reading weekend everyone!!

Ruthiella Very interested to hear what you think of Mother Doll! That was my longlist pick, but I haven‘t read it yet. 4mo
Megabooks @Ruthiella I have not started it yet, but it sounded really good. Thanks for nominating it! 4mo
