Reader reviews for Menopausing : The Positive Roadmap to Your Second Spring
Review summary
Readers largely found Davina McCall’s guide an accessible, up-to-date primer on peri- and menopause, praised for its clear structure, personable voice, and practical tips—especially around recognising symptoms and advocating with doctors. Many valued the breadth of testimonies and the doctor’s inserts, saying it jump-starts conversations and eases isolation. Criticism clustered around repetitiveness, a chatty or sometimes patronising tone, and a strong emphasis on HRT that some viewed as a hard sell, with insufficient alternatives for those who can’t or won’t use hormones (e.g., cancer survivors, people with certain mental health conditions). Some also noted UK-centric advice and assumptions about readers’ lifestyles, while others called it motivating and, for some, transformational.
