This book tells so many different, but so many similar stories of women with one common theme - we should talk about these things more and we should seek to be heard and be given help and support if we need it.

For far too long we have kept quiet about this subject!) that you can dip in and out of. It’s frank, it’s fascinating and it debunks so many of the horror stories around HRT.
