Hot flashes flashing you? Let's face it, perimenopause and menopause are still too rarely talked about. Shmirshky turns this taboo topic into an all-inclusive page-turner. Suffering in silence is OUT. Reaching out is IN. Reading Shmirshky is like having coffee with a hilarious friend who tells it straight about hormone craziness and how to get help. Whether you're a woman who's suddenly losing her keys, her temper, and her mind, or that woman's partner, child, or friend, Shmirshky is for you.--From publisher description.
