About this audiobook

**Menopause Without Myths — Audiobook · Narrated by Deborah Park.** 🎧 Listen time: 5 hours 28 minutes For millions of women, perimenopause and menopause arrive with confusion, frustration, and unanswered questions. Symptoms such as hot flashes, sleep disruption, anxiety, mood changes, brain fog, joint pain, and fatigue are often dismissed, misunderstood, or treated as isolated issues rather than part of a larger hormonal transition. In *Menopause Without Myths*, OB-GYN Dr. Yvette Cassidy provides the comprehensive, evidence-based guidance many women never receive during routine medical appointments. Drawing on more than twenty years of clinical practice and extensive experience treating women through midlife hormonal changes, Cassidy explains what actually happens during perimenopause and menopause, why symptoms can begin years before periods stop, and why normal laboratory results do not necessarily rule out hormonal causes. The book addresses the latest research on hormone replacement therapy, including updated perspectives on risks, benefits, and common misconceptions that have shaped public understanding for decades. Listeners are guided through both hormonal and non-hormonal treatment options, allowing them to make informed decisions based on their individual health needs and preferences. Beyond the well-known symptoms, Cassidy examines lesser-known issues that frequently accompany menopause, including recurrent urinary tract infections, frozen shoulder, heart palpitations, sleep disturbances, changes in cognitive performance, and emotional challenges that can affect confidence, relationships, and identity. Practical tools throughout the book help listeners track symptoms, prepare for medical appointments, communicate effectively with healthcare providers, and understand treatment choices. Special sections also address long-term concerns such as bone health, cardiovascular health, and healthy aging after menopause. Written in clear, accessible language, *Menopause Without Myths* empowers women with the knowledge needed to navigate this significant life transition confidently. It serves as both a practical guide and a trusted resource for understanding the physical, emotional, and hormonal changes of midlife while helping listeners advocate for the care and support they deserve.
