Summary: This is Not Simplistic Reading
Comment: "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Pre-Menopause," What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause," and "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Breast Cancer" are books that every woman needs to read.
Dr. Lee's books are thorough and medically detailed, they are not simplistic reading. Patience: if you are a woman, you need this information. Do you consider anything more important than your health? You may want to start with the book "Dr. John Lee's Hormone Balance Made Simple," by Dr. John Lee and Virginia Hopkins, which is much less technical and can serve as a good handbook companion. The three books mentioned above have important additional information.
In an era before the latest studies, Dr. Lee was advising against artificial estrogen and the combination tablets that are made of Premarin with artificial progesterone for relief of pre- and menopause symptoms. These are not bio-identical and now they have once and for all been proven dangerous in the highly publicized studies.
The late Dr. Lee had nothing whatever to sell except some very important information. You make the best decisions when you have the most competent information.
Dr. Lee's outstanding main contribution was in making known the many uses of natural progesterone cream, information you probably will NOT hear from your doctor, since this extremely beneficial natural cream happens to be available over-the-counter without prescription.
You can begin benefitting from this cream, available in most health food stores, as early as your 20's or as late as your 90's but as there are many imitation products, you need Dr. Lee's book(s) to guide you correctly.
Unlike the synthetic prescribed "progestins," (fake progesterone), this cream is bio-identical, having the same chemistry as progesterone made by the body. It is derived from plants and is applied on the skin, being well-absorbed.
It is a wonderful supplement with many benefits, the most important of which regards our skeletal structure. For women, bone is automatically and continually lost very rapidly starting around age 50, leading to osteoporosis. This causes many problems such as "dowager's hump", but worse, a fractured hip or spine can be an extremely serious injury.
The progesterone has been well-proven by Dr. Lee to actually REBUILD BONE in carefully documented studies over many years and in the premenopause and menopause books Dr. Lee supplies all of the details as to how this works and why there is nothing comparable available that works as well to prevent osteoporosis.
Before you fall for any of the celebrity TV-advertised prescription "bone building" medications, please invest a much smaller sum in Dr. Lee's pre-menopause and menopause books that discuss such harmful and ineffective products.
For pre-menopausal women, progesterone cream can also prevent and solve numerous monthly problems that may begin as early as the 20's.
(Also excellent are the books "Menopause Without Medicine" by Linda Ojeda and "Smart Medicine for Menopause" by Sandra Cabot, M.D. plus any other book she wrote that you can obtain).

Summary: An absolute must read
Comment: A book that provides essential information on hormones to women, premenopausal or in reproductive years. I wish I had read it when I was in my early thirties. It would have saved me a lot of grief. At the very least it will help with knowing what questions to ask your Dr.

Summary: Must Read!
Comment: This book is a must read...for everyone! I learned so much about hormones and health. Who knew hormones regulate most things in the body? For both men and women! If our hormones are out of balance, it can affect so many things. Dr. Lee does a great job of educating us on hormones, balance and using natural hormones. I highly recommend this book and all others Dr. Lee has written.

Summary: This book has helped me tremendously
Comment: This book and "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause", have helped me so much to know what is going on with me and my body and to assist me in finding ways to help myself. Topical, natural Progesterone has been a life saver, no more hot flashes or night sweats, and it is helping my mood to stabilize. His books explain the difference between natural and 'man made' and how the chemical composition needs to be the same chemical composition as created by our bodies. I refer back to both of these books often and have been taking vitamins and supplements. I have found these to be a wealth of wisdom.

Summary: What your Dr. may not tell you about premenopause.
Comment: I thought this book was very helpful in giving alternative methods for treating PMS. It also clarified for me-- hair loss issues, and weight issues related to hormonal imbalance. I have already begun using the natural progesterone cream and I have noticed a lessening of my PMS symptoms within the first cycle. I recommend this book to every woman experiencing extreme PMS symptoms, hair loss, and weight issues.
