Review of Ask Dr. Marie: Straight Talk and Reassuring Answers to Your Most Private Questions (Hardcover)

I'm Marie Savard, M.D., ABC News Medical Contributor and the author of ASK DR. MARIE. I want to share with you my reasons for writing this book for you. I am fascinated by the many challenges that women face when making the best decisions about their health, hormone, or birth control options. I never hesitate to weigh in on the latest research and how it can be applied to women in the real world - far removed from these often faulty research studies. My earliest research in women's health helped women decide for themselves if they had vaginitis or cystitis and how best to treat these conditions safely, naturally and with as little medication if possible. So it is no surprise that women often pull me aside to ask sometimes difficult - but almost always embarrassing-- questions about what is going on "down there." Is this discharge or dryness normal? How long will this last? Is this what menopause, sex after childbirth, having painful cystitis or bacterial vaginosis - the list goes on - really like? Will this cream or pill work for me? What hormones, vitamins, and supplements do YOU take? Are bioidentical hormones were the safest way to go? I thought that my bleeding was just a hemorrhoid. I didn't realize it could be something else. I am newly divorced - what precautions do I need to take before having sex again? How will I know if he is okay? The list of intimate questions from women (and often men want to know the answers to these questions, too) goes on and on. In the pages of ASK DR. MARIE, I share with you what is normal, when to get help, what you can treat on your own, what are the best and most up-to-date tests to get, and how best to make the right decision for YOU for pretty much all that goes on "down there." But that's not all. I also talk about my all important "lifestyle pill", how to manage your weight and waist size as you get older, why stress can be different for women, and much, much more. I honestly believe this is the book women - and men -have been waiting for. Advance reviews from top physicians and lay people alike have confirmed that belief for me. I hope you'll order your copy today!

Here's to your health!
Dr. Marie
