Is it getting hot in here or is it just me?

Non-fiction books on perimenopause and menopause.

Aiming for books that don't have a focus on diet culture or weight loss -- please let me know if I've accidentally included books that do. Recommendations welcome!

I love the range of books on this list. Thanks for putting it together!

You’re welcome (very belatedly)! I’m so glad that there’s starting to be more writing about this and more diversity in intended audiences.

thank you so much! as someone who just entered midlife, I just realized how clueless I am about my own body. do you have any suggestions on which book to start as a beginner?

I think What Fresh Hell Is This? or The Menopause Manifesto could both be good starting places. What Fresh Hell Is This? has a very casual, conversational writing style, while The Menopause Manifesto is by a physician and gets a little bit more detailed about the science and research. Hope you find something that’s a good fit for you!
