Irregular periods
Fibrocystic breasts

After a brief introduction to the inner workings of the female body, each chapter focuses on holistic solutions for a specific female health problem. These principles are then brought together at the end of the book, where you’ll find more general advice on keeping your health in tiptop condition.
