The New York Times bestselling author of The XX Brainoutlines the latest science showing how to navigate perimenopause and menopause successfully, and come out the other side with an even better brain.

Menopause and perimenopause are still a black box to most doctors, leaving patients exasperated as they grapple with symptoms ranging from hot flushes to insomnia and brain fog. As a leading neuroscientist and women's brain health specialist, Dr Lisa Mosconi unravels the mystery, revealing menopause doesn't just impact the ovaries, but is actually a hormonal show in which the brain takes centre stage.
The decline of the hormone oestrogen during menopause influences everything from body temperature to mood and memory, potentially paving the way for cognitive decline later in life. To manage these successfully, Mosconi brings us the latest approaches: cutting-edge hormone replacement therapies like 'designer oestrogens', as well as the lifestyle changes that really work in diet, exercise, self-care, and self-talk.
Best of all, Mosconi dispels the myth that menopause signifies an end, demonstrating that it's actually a transition. Contrary to popular belief, if we know how to take care of ourselves during menopause, we can emerge with renewed, enhanced brainpower - ushering in a meaningful and vibrant new chapter of life.
