Hormones control our entire lives and fertility cycles. They influence our well-being, emotional life and appearance. They show their power especially during the transition to menopause: two thirds of all women between the ages of 45 and 60 are affected by symptoms such as hot flashes, sleep deprivation, difficulty concentrating, depression or dry mucous membranes.

But the menopause is also accompanied by an inner change that opens the door to the second half of life. Just as every woman is unique, the menopause also varies from person to person. There are many ways to naturally balance the hormones, improve well-being and relieve symptoms in order to experience this transition period vitally and consciously.

In the book, Petra Neumayer provides readers with practical background knowledge and presents a comprehensive range of holistic methods and resources - all in a handy compact format:

Estrogen, progesterone & Co. - Basic knowledge about the hormone system
Naturally relieve symptoms with phytotherapy, Hildegard medicine, homeopathy, Schuessler salts, hormone yoga, bioidentical hormones, Ayurveda, TCM & Co.
Clean Eating and Superfood - healthy and liberated through proper nutrition

"Stress is the plague of the 21st century (WHO). And the menopause brings an extra portion of it, including hot flashes. The new Mankau compact guide explains how to get stress and the inevitable hormonal chaos under control: Gentle natural remedies and bioestrogens often help surprisingly well with complaints - cool tips for practical self-help when the heat rises."
Dr. med. Eberhard J. Wormer, general practitioner

"In her book 'First Aid for Hot Flashes & Co', Ms Neumayer explains in an easily understandable way why many women suffer in one way or another during the menopause. She also looks beyond the Western horizon to find explanations from China and India. She describes the wide range of complaints and explains their causes before giving extensive tips from complementary medicine. From medicinal plants and mushrooms to homeopathy and biochemistry, she also mentions many other things that can help. Affected women thus receive a reference work that is as compact as it is comprehensive, with numerous tips for their own journey through the menopause. All they have to do is make their personal selection."
Sabine Ritter, pharmacist

"This guidebook summarizes in an easy-to-understand way what women should know about their menopause. After a very informative introduction to the basics of menopause, the author first shows the pros and cons of hormone replacement therapy and describes the various symptoms that can - but do not have to - occur during the menopause! In the subsequent guide section, women can find out what natural help is available to them in a variety of forms. Easy-to-implement recipes for healthy nutrition during the menopause and supporting nutritional supplements have not been forgotten either. In short, in my view, a book that I will happily recommend to my patients."
Christina Casagrande, naturopath and author

Reviews

"This little book contains a lot of important information that you will hardly find anywhere else in such a compact form. (...) Based on my studies, I am convinced that we can treat as much as we want with hormones without actually achieving long-term success if we do not take into account the hormone-active substances in the environment and protect ourselves from them. Unfortunately, our body is not so clever that it can distinguish exactly which hormones come from outside and which from inside and that it could simply put a stop to the undesirable ones. A healthy diet plays an important role, and you will also find out more about this in the book. With a good diet and selected foods and herbal remedies, we can achieve a lot during the menopause, even the premature menopause." Full article →

"A small guide, packed full of helpful information, clearly structured and nicely presented. Conclusion: small on the outside, big on the inside, a fantastic guide. Highly recommended!"
Spirit live & Schirner Magazine, Aug. - Oct. 2018

"After information on the menopause in general and its typical symptoms, there are many practical tips to help alleviate hormone deficiency through medicinal plants, Hildegard medicine, homeopathy, Schuessler salts, hormone yoga, bio-identical hormones from natural, non-chemical basic substances (...), Ayurveda, TCM. A metabolically healthy diet with suitable foods is just as helpful. Since chemical hormone replacement therapy is increasingly viewed critically after years of preference and despite a new renaissance, this holistically oriented, concise but informative guide with a small index, addresses and literature is suitable for everyone who wants to experience the menopause as a transition in a vital and conscious way."
Margret Becker, ekz Information Service 2018/12

"A small book, a big deal! (...) For me as a 'beginner' in the topic of menopause, the book really has a lot to offer. I found a lot of information on 127 pages, which the author conveys in a way that is easy to understand and in a beautiful writing style. (...) Towards the end, in the 'practical applications' section, we get a lot of different advice. There are definitely a few things you can try, and I will definitely try them all out. What else do I like about the guide? It is simply very clearly structured. I read the entire book the first time and now I use it again and again for reference." Full review...

What this book offers

Read everything you need to know about the menopause and get practical tips for self-help.
Below you will find an annotated table of contents for the book "First Aid for Hot Flashes & Co." by Petra Neumayer.

Basic knowledge of menopause (from page 11)

The menopause is an important developmental process that involves redesigning the second half of life, but hormones often fluctuate during this time (page 16 ff.). The hormones estrogen and progesterone have very specific tasks in premenopause, menopause and postmenopause (page 19 ff.). In this chapter of the book, Petra Neumayer explains the physical changes and possible consequences, for example when the adrenal glands are overloaded (page 31 ff.) or when the thyroid goes haywire (page 34 ff.).

Typical menopausal symptoms (from page 39)

There are different theories from conventional medicine, traditional Chinese medicine or Ayurveda about why the hormonal changes in menopause cause problems (page 42 ff.). Many women suffer from "classic" symptoms (page 46 ff.) such as heart palpitations, muscle pain, hair loss or bladder infections during this time; secondary diseases (page 57 ff.) such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases or Alzheimer's can also be hormone-dependent.

Practical applications (from page 61)

Hormonally active medicinal plants with estrogen characteristics (page 64 ff.) or progesterone characteristics (page 68 ff.) can help to get out of the symptom spiral of menopausal symptoms - they contain active ingredients that have a regulatory effect on the hormonal system. In addition, homeopathic medicines (page 75 ff.), Schuessler salts (page 78 f.) or Chinese medicinal mushrooms (page 80) can balance the hormonal balance and alleviate symptoms. You will also learn everything you need to know about the possible uses of bioidentical hormones (page 81 ff.) and the effects of clean eating and superfoods (page 93 ff.). Nutritional supplements (page 103 ff.) such as vitamin D, ginseng or magnesium can be just as useful as an alkaline diet (page 112).

Es ist ein wertvoller Begleiter in den Wechseljahren

Dies ist ein Thema, welches viele Frauen um die 50 betrifft. Daher habe ich mir dieses Buch gekauft, damit man nicht auf künstliche Hormone zurückgreifen muss.
Es ist ein kleiner Ratgeber für das Nachtkasterl, indem Frau immer wieder nachlesen kann. Von Basiswissen zu den Hormonen und hormonellen Veränderungen im Wechsel bis hin zu hilfreichen Nahrungsmitteln, Heilpflanzen, Homöopathie, Yoga und mehr. Es gibt einen Einblick in die ganzheitliche Unterstützung.
Ich kann dieses kleine Buch nur jeder Frau empfehlen, die sich gerade in dieser Umbruchphase befindet.

Sehr gut auch zur Vorbeugung

Jede Frau wird ab einem gewissen Alter mit dem Thema Wechseljahre konfrontiert. Die Beschwerdebilder und möglichen Folgeerkrankungen während dieser Hormonumstellung des Körpers können extrem unterschiedlich sein. Um hier Zusammenhänge zu erkennen und mit ganz natürlichen Mitteln dagegen steuern zu können, ist das Buch sehr hilfreich.

Wir erfahren über die Funktion, Produktion und Wirkung der entsprechenden Hormone, ihr Verhältnis zueinander und welche verschiedenen Möglichkeiten es gibt, sie zu messen und zu unterstützen. Ein ganzes Kapitel wird den bioidentischen Hormonen gewidmet – hier könnte ich mir vorstellen, dass diese noch nicht jedem bekannt sind – in jedem Fall sind sie verträglicher und nebenwirkungsfreier als die chemischen Hormone.

Neben einer Fülle von Tipps und Tricks zur gesunden Lebensführung, Ernährung, Superfoods, Vitamine, Mineralien, Naturmedikamente, Hilfemaßnahmen bei definierten Problemen (starke Blutung, Osteoporose, Gewicht, …), ebenso was man besser vermeidet, hat mir besonders die Einteilung der Pflanzen in Progesteron- und Östrogencharakter gefallen sowie der Artikel über Soja (ja oder nein?).

Es ist erstaunlich, wie viel geballte Information zum Thema in so einen kleinen Ratgeber passt, wenn dieser gut strukturiert und der Inhalt sorgfältig ausgewählt ist. Die Autorin empfiehlt, das Büchlein einmal komplett durchzulesen und dann als Nachschlagewerk zu verwenden. Bei ihrem angenehmen und spannenden Schreibstil fällt das leicht.
