About this book

Understand your cycle. Transform your health.

If you've ever wondered why your periods feel unpredictable, painful or overwhelming, this book is for you.

From the science behind your cycle to practical advice for managing symptoms and problems, renowned endocrinologist Dr Mary Ryan covers it all: what a healthy period looks like, how hormones affect your body and mind, and why nutrition, exercise and stress matter. She tackles problems like endometriosis, fibroids, PCOS and PMS, as well as fertility, mood and the transition to perimenopause.

Packed with expert insights and actionable strategies, this is your essential guide to understanding your body and taking control of your hormonal health, so you can feel your best at every stage of life.
