Description

I'm Your Peri Godmother takes readers on a hilarious and helpful journey through the rollercoaster experience of perimenopause.

Health advocate and journalist Shelly Horton thought menopause was for old ladies and was simply hot flushes and no more periods. She'd never heard the term perimenopause until she went from kicking arse in her career to flatlining in the ICU - all because her hormones staged a full-blown peri-mutiny. Now, driven by the knowledge that keeping quiet only holds women back, she is sharing her perimenopause story along with evidence-based health advice, case studies and practical tools so you can navigate perimenopause with more confidence and a lot less confusion.

Entertaining and informative, I'm Your Peri Godmother de-stigmatises perimenopause and will help you feel less alone on your own peri journey. Consider Shelly your big sister, your supportive best friend, your very own peri godmother, here to help you through it all with a wave of her magic wand, lots of medical evidence (but no medical jargon) and real-life warmth and humour.
