"With so much attention to menopause and the accompanying symptoms as a normal transition for women, thyroid disorders often go undiagnosed and untreated. Mary Shomon once again uses her extensive up-to-date knowledge of the latest research and her first hand experience to come up with a timely and empowering book for women during this life stage."
~ Dr. Marie Savard, ABC Medical Contributor and Author of Ask Dr. Marie

"The epidemic of menopause and thyroid-related issues is having major health consequences. Now, visionary advocate Mary Shomon has shed light on the menopause/thyroid connection to provide welcome relief for the millions of women who thought they were doing everything right."
~ Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., best-selling author of 30 books on health and including including The Fat Flush Plan

"Stress, pollution, nutrition, and other factors have so depleted our hormones -- especially the thyroid -- that good health and hormonal balance is often impossible for women unless we're paying careful attention to the thyroid. I recommend Mary Shomon's "Menopause Thyroid Solution," because her book explains how the thyroid plays a role during perimenopause and menopause, and will help women not only recognize their thyroid symptoms, but get the diagnosis and proper treatment..."
~ Uzzi Reiss, MD, Ob-Gyn, Author of The Natural Superwoman, and Natural Hormone Balance for Women

"Mary Shomon is amazing! By combining science and common sense, she has helped millions of women failed by our health care system to reclaim their health. Buy this book, and prepare to feel great!"
~ Jacob Teitelbaum, MD, author of From Fatigued to Fantastic

"The Menopause Thyroid Solution is a must for any female who wants to fight fatigue, increase energy, maintain mental clarity, boost metabolic function and improve hormone balance."
~ Teresa Tapp, Exercise Physiologist, T-Tapp Founder, and Author of Fit and Fabulous in 15 Minutes

"Once again, Mary Shomon is superb: crucial topics...accurate information...user friendly...an amazingly good book!"
~ Richard Shames, MD, Author of Thyroid Power

"Once again, Mary Shomon has stepped up to the plate to make what can be a very confusing topic totally understandable. In her extremely clear writing style, Mary has beautifully explained how one can differentiate true menopause symptoms from those due to thyroid deficiency..."
~ Donna Hurlock, MD, Certified Menopause Clinician

"Mary Shomon unravels the numerous underlying causes which connect symptoms of low thyroid function and menopause."
~ Viana Muller, PhD, South American medicinal plant expert, founder of Whole World Botanicals

"As a psychologist who works with women suffering the symptoms often associated to menopause, I am very excited to explore ways of uncovering an undiagnosed thyroid problem...Hormone replacement therapy for women in menopause is big business...so big that the billions of dollars sold often eclipse looking for hidden thyroid problems...Mary Shomon has hit another thyroid home-run!"
~ Steven Gurgevich, PhD, Director of Mind-Body Clinic, University of Arizona College of Medicine, best-selling author of Self-Hypnosis Diet

"I highly recommend Mary Shomon's "The Menopause Thyroid Solution. It is a must read for all those interested in women's thyroid and menopause issues."
~ David Brownstein, MD, Author of Iodine: Why You Need It, Why You Can't Live Without It and Overcoming Thyroid Disorders

"Mary Shomon has become one of the few experts I always feel confident about referring women to when it comes to menopause, thyroid problems and many other women's health issues. She's so thorough and her books are written in a down to earth, 'we're in this together' language..."
~ Dee Adams, Founder/Creator, "MinniePauz" website and cartoons

Subscribe to the Print Newsletter

Since 1997, my Sticking Out Our Necks thyroid disease newsletters have been providing thyroid patients around the world with the latest up-to-date information and research about thyroid disease.

Sticking Out Our Necks is the only information-packed, independent (that's right, no drug company sponsors!) patient-oriented thyroid newsletter. It's filled with information to help you improve your health, resolve symptoms, and live well with your thyroid condition.

Inside you'll find the latest thyroid news, interviews, information about little-known drug recalls, and the latest research findings, including in-depth articles you won't find at my sites, or on the Internet, along with many other features.

I created the newsletter back in 1999 because some people like to get actual printed newsletters that come to you by mail. So every other month, you'll get 12 pages jam-packed with unbiased conventional and alternative thyroid and health information, including the latest medical journal research that even your doctor hasn't gotten around to reading yet.

For the affordable subscription price of $25 ($35 non-US), you get a one-year subscription to Sticking Out Our Necks, the independent bimonthly voice of thyroid patients around the world. Plus, valuable free additional special reports and inserts are included periodically, to help you stay up to date on the best conventional and alternative information about thyroid disease.

What Readers Say About Sticking Out Our Necks

"For the first time since my diagnosis in 1999, I feel like my old self again. Mary, if it wasn't for you, I would still be settling for a life of under treated Hashimoto's disease. Instead, I am enjoying high levels of energy and desire. For the first time in years, I am experiencing hopes, dreams, and a vision for what I can accomplish in life. And, just as important, I have the physical, emotional, and mental energy to reinvent my life. What joy I experience when some of my friends and family don't recognize the new me.
~ Heidi H, Asheville, NC

You have given me the confidence to fight for feeling well, a valuable service to anyone, and, surely, a human right. I am now slim , my TSH is rock bottom of range and I have never had as many compliments from people - I look and feel 10 years younger than I did 18 months ago. I know I'm one of the lucky ones, but it isn't ALL luck: I've followed your advice and it's paid off.
~Alison L, London, England

What you are doing is commendable. Someone helping others, even while in the midst of their own struggle is a rare gift seldom found in people. I'm sure there are many who appreciate all that you do. Thank you, and I hope your message continues to reach and empower others.
~ Don G.

You did a great job and thank you for all the hard work you put into it. There is so much information that you gave this reader and follower more her money's worth.
~ Lauren Y, Milwaukee, WI
