Our Bodies, Ourselves: Menopause

“So much has been learned about menopause in the last twenty-five years – what a challenge it had to be to treat the subject in a comprehensive, comprehensible manner, which this book admirably does….A worthy companion to the classic pathfinder book by the same organization.” – Isaac Schiff, M. D., chief of Obstetrics and Gynecology Service at Massachusetts General Hospital“Who’s afraid of menopause? Not the authors of this book, who offer practical health information and the wisdom of experience to help other women through this life transition.” – Kathleen Turner, actress“Our Bodies Ourselves has done it again!…Our beloved guides to our own bodies…lead us through menopause with this detailed, inclusive, and woman-centered book – a must-read for every woman in her middle years.” – Helen Zia, author of Asian American Dreams: The Emergence of an American People and former executive editor of Ms. Magazine

The Boston Women’s Health Book Collective (now known as Our Bodies Ourselves) is a non-profit organization founded in 1969 whose advisors have included Teresa Heinz Kerry, Susan Love, and Gloria Steinem. Their mission is to empower women (and others) by providing information about health, sexuality, and reproduction. For five decades Our Bodies, Ourselves was the organization’s core vehicle for driving their mission. While OBOS is still recognized for its voice in policy, advocacy, and educational efforts related to women’s health, women’s groups across the globe continue to produce translation/adaptations of this iconic text. Judy Norsigian is the current board chair of Our Bodies Ourselves.
