'Empowering and essential' Cherry Healey

The go-to manual for anybody considering starting HRT and navigating the perimenopause journey

Most GP visits are 10-15 minutes long – never enough time for your doctor to take you through all the ins and outs of hormone replacement therapy. Written by Dr Ellie Cannon, a practising GP specialising in women’s health, this easy-to-read guide condenses everything doctors wish they had time to tell you.

With the amount of conflicting information on menopause, navigating this journey can be overwhelming. It’s been framed in some quarters as the panacea – the more hormones you take, the better you’ll feel. But there are also a lot of GPs concerned that women are being over-promised a positive menopause.

Dr Ellie is here to redress the balance: in support of HRT but sensible about the pros and cons of the treatment. With her level-headed and impartial approach, she doesn’t ask you to jump on the HRT bandwagon, but gives you clear, digestible advice and information as you start your research during perimenopause. Getting to the crux of HRT, this is your personal GP consultation from start to finish – with all your questions finally answered.

Reviews for The Little Book of HRT: Your essential guide to hormones and menopause

This is the book I’ve been waiting for! -- Lauren Laverne Empowering and essential, this book is the ultimate resource for women navigating menopause and seeking control over their hormonal health. -- Cherry Healey This book is basically the consultation on HRT I would give my patients if I had all the time in the world. Filled with no-nonsense, down-to-earth advice that will help women make the best decisions about their personal menopausal journey, and written in an easily digestible form. I wish I could put it on a prescription! -- Dr Dawn Harper This is a really important book. With all the confusion over HRT in recent years, it has never been more important for women to have a truly balanced, evidence-based reference. It's their bodies and they deserve to be able to make truly informed decisions. This book provides exactly that. Somehow Ellie has managed to translate all the jargon and cut through the noise. -- Dr Sarah Jarvis MBE At last! A comprehensive but clear, easy-to-follow, plain-speaking, jargon-free guide to the menopause and HRT. Everything women AND MEN need to know with none of the hype, pseudoscience or over-medicalisation so rampant at the current time. Dr Ellie Cannon nails it. -- Dr Hilary Jones MBE I wish all my patients thinking about HRT would read this, and I’d have copies for lending in the surgery. -- Dr Rosemary Leonard This book is an essential guide for any woman approaching menopause. Easy to read, compassionate, and grounded in science, it demystifies HRT and empowers readers to make informed choices about their health. -- Baroness Ayesha Hazarika MBE A brilliant resource, easy to understand and non-biased. Handy for anyone interested in learning more about HRT. -- Dr Aziza Sesay
