The Menopause Industry: A Guide to Medicine's 'Discovery' of the Mid-Life Woman
Published in four countries and into several reprints, this book has been called ‘a must read’. The information in this book is important and Sandra Coney’s incisive critique of the use of HRT should have been listened to years ago. It is groundbreaking and gives details on the benefits and risks of medical intervention in ‘the mid-life woman’. Sandra Coney argues that healthy mid-life women are being deliberately targeted by vested interests with products and services to sell. In the process, the normal event of menopause is being redefined as a health hazard that needs to be treated.
