Praise for The Secret Female Hormone

I have long recommended testosterone to those women who
require it. Dr. Maupins updated and thorough approach to this
little-known female hormone is simply excellent.

Christiane Northrup, MD, OB/GYN, and New York Times best
selling author of Womens Bodies, Womens Wisdom
and The Wisdom of Menopause

The Secret Female Hormone unveils the missing link for many
women over 40 who are suffering from symptoms such as low
libido, fatigue, insomnia, loss of muscle mass, and an increase in
belly fatdespite the perfect diet and exercise regime.
Every woman should read this book!

Dr. Natasha Turner, naturopathic doctor and author of The
Hormone Diet, The Supercharged Hormone Diet, and
The Carb Sensitivity Plan

The Secret Female Hormone is a must read for women today! Dr.
Maupin and Mr. Newcomb have brought to light the importance
of testosterone for many women struggling with low libido.
Hormones should always be evaluated in unity, and testosterone
is almost always overlooked. The authors tell the truth about
how hormone imbalances truly affect womennot only their
energy, their vitality, and their libido but also their family
relationships and self-esteem. This book will be a
resource for women for years to come!

The greatest joy of my medical life was delivering miracles to
my sisters, my patients, as I shared the moment of childbirth
