Team-written by female specialists in the US and the UK, all of whom are experts in their respective fields, Women's Health for Life is a unique compilation of women's health information, designed to help women optimize their health, well-being and quality of life. The book discusses topics ranging from contraception to infertility; migraines to menopause; and heartburn to heart disease. While many readers will want to read this book from start to finish, it provides easy access to specific information when it's needed.

Organized by body system, each chapter starts out with an explanation of how that system works and ways to maintain healthy function through diet, exercise and other self-help measures. This is followed by an explanation of some of the medical conditions affecting that particular system and how they should be treated—specifically for women.
