"Written by international authorities in psychiatry, gynecology, psychology, nursing, sociology, and internal medicine, A Clinician's Guide to Menopause is a comprehensive, multidisciplinary resource for the care and treatment of menopausal and postmenopausal women. This important guide explores menopause from a number of different perspectives and familiarizes clinicians with the medical issues associated with menopause, including physiology, symptomatology, risk factors, the medical evaluation, and hormone therapy and other medical treatments. It then covers psychiatric aspects of menopause, psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacologic treatments, and multicultural and quality of life issues. Numerous case vignettes illuminate common problems and their resolutions. This book will provide clinicians with a useful physical, psychiatric, and multidimensional context for their care of female patients."--(www.appi.org)
