And when she sought help, she was shocked by how little her doctor had to offer. So, Amy went looking for the answers herself. She found that women's health is routinely misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mistreated. She discovered tools to help women make better choices, like this cancer risk assessment calculator. Her book is called 'Going Menopostal: What You (and Your Doctor) Need to Know About the Real Science of Menopause and Perimenopause.
