Publisher's Synopsis
Whatas a Woman to Do? was the title of a two-page paper Dr. Willis wrote in mid-2002. It was in response to numerous inquires from female patients after the Womenas Health Initiative study on hormone replacement therapy was terminated early. Subsequently, more questions than answers arose. As a result, Dr. Willis set out to span the gulf between medical fact and fiction, to find answers to the recurring questions. The first section of the book covers an overview of various relevant topics including: doctor-patient partnerships, the ABCs, the concept of progressive practical application, and a new paradigm to challenge how you approach dealing with healthcare issues. The subsequent sections address the areas of stress reduction, environmental estrogen/toxin exposure, prescription estrogens, and nutrition. Each section contains background material and current medical findings. Because the ultimate goal of the program is to have you to make appropriate steps to health, each section ends with a practical application.
