Random House presents the audiobook edition of Confessions of a Menopausal Woman, written and read by Andrea McLean.

The menopause. There - we've said it. It's a huge part of every woman's life and yet it remains one of society's last taboos. An emotionally complex issue that can trigger a whole host of physical and mental side effects, it's a big deal. So why aren't we talking about it?

Talking about stuff is what women do best; we share and offload, we laugh and we bond over the ridiculous and incredible things our bodies go through. Hearing other people's experiences is what makes our own so much more bearable - because we know that we aren't alone. This is the book that Andrea McLean wished for as she found herself in uncharted territory, grappling with the physical aftershock of a hysterectomy and the psychological fallout of a difficult menopause.

After announcing live on Loose Women that she would be absent from the screen as she recovered from surgery, Andrea was inundated with letters from other women struggling with the realities of the menopause, who were delighted that someone was finally talking openly and frankly about it. Typically candid, and including tips and tricks on diet, exercise and even your sex life, in Confessions of a Menopausal Woman Andrea brings her trademark humour and honesty to a very hot topic.

Andrea McLean is one of the primary anchors on the award-wining ITV lunchtime talk show Loose Women. Before she joined the show in 2007, she was best known as one of the core team of presenters on the ITV breakfast programme GMTV. Andrea has just celebrated her twenty-first year with ITV. She began her career as a freelance travel writer and has gone on to write for Red, Best, Scottish Woman, The Mirror and numerous women's weekly magazines. Her autobiography, Confessions of a Good Girl, was a Sunday Times number one bestseller.

Reviews

'A warm and uplifting read that informs and inspires.' Liz Earle I love this book. Brilliantly practical, down-to-earth guide about how to not only survive the menopause but to thrive too. Andrea is warm, kind and lovely and it's like sitting down with a good friend who has the best advice. An inspiration. Invaluable tips and tricks. Forget the hours of searching for mixed messages on Dr Google - when it comes to the menopause, this book tells you everything you need to know. This book is so perfect! I have bought it as a gift for many of my friends. They have then, in turn, given it to others. Itโ€™s been written so honestly and carefully by someone I know and trust. No one else has covered all the areas that Andrea does in her book and covered them so fully and in such an appealing and funny way. Andrea has put her heart and soul into this book ... a bible for all things menopause. Iโ€™ve bought this book for three of my close friends for Christmas. Itโ€™s such an honest and refreshing read that really helps you to understand the menopause. Consider this book a very dear friend as you navigate the menopause... Itโ€™ll hold your hand through the difficult bits and keep you smiling through the rest. As a young-ish woman experiencing the bewildering, unsettling and sometimes extreme symptoms of peri menopause, all Iโ€™ve wanted is to be able to talk to a girl friend who understands the journey. Someone whoโ€™s been there, seen it, done that. Someone who can hold your hand, tell you not to worry, and reassure you that youโ€™ll come though the other side in time. That is exactly what Andrea has achieved with Confessions of a Menopausal Woman. Her warmth and characteristic sensitivity shine through in her honest account of her own suffering - not to be a bleeding heart, but to be a guiding light for other women who are right behind her. Part memoir, part self-help, this book is must-have-menopause-manual for every girl who wants to feel her best in a time of change. Expand reviews
