Purchase options and add-ons

Period Power is a profound but practical blueprint for aligning daily life with the menstrual cycle, to give women a no-nonsense explanation of what the hell happens to their hormones every month and how they can use each phase to its full advantage.

Ninety per cent of women experience symptoms of PMS, a syndrome which features a wide range of signs and symptoms and yet there's an enduring lack of understanding about what it actually is, and a disappointingly meager range of treatment options.

So many of us have a Jekyll and Hyde experience of our lives; we feel on top of the world, capable, confident and sexy for part of each month, then find ourselves in a state of physical and emotional discomfort and fatigue, wanting nothing more than to collapse on the sofa in front of Netflix. But what if instead of just trying to plan for our dark days, women were equipped with ways to improve them? What if our desire to improve ourselves could be combined with our need to know just what our womb and ovaries are getting up to every month? Not to mention how to take advantage of the natural superpowers that sit in each phase of our cycle, so that we can plan our month to perform at our best.

Maisie Hill is uniquely placed, as an acupuncturist, women's health practitioner and doula, to explain just how we can achieve this, as well as focusing on particular milestones that require an altered approach, such as coming off hormonal birth control, infertility, pregnancy, motherhood and the perimenopausal years. Using what Hill calls the cycle strategy--a woman's secret weapon when it comes to improving her relationships, career and health--she will apply the principles of Eastern and Western medicine to give women all they need to make sense of their cycles, as well as accessible and practical suggestions through which readers can improve their physical symptoms, and stop berating themselves because of the way that they evolve through each menstrual month.

“Thank GOODNESS for Maisie Hill! Flipping open the lid on a vital conversation. It's about time we claimed the power of our periods!” ―Gemma Cairney, broadcaster & co-founder of Boom Shakalaka Productions

“This is such an important book. Maisie's insights and cycle strategy have changed my life and my cycle. Period Power is written with such intelligence, humour and a deep understanding of women's health. If you have a period you need to read this book.” ―Anna Jones, author of The Modern Cook's Year

This book informed me and gave me true knowledge and power to work with instead of against my body. Had so much information and I don’t know how many times I found myself thinking or saying “ I wish I would have known this is my early twenties” here I am hitting 40 and finally learning how my body works. Who knew the clitoris was so large? Wtf? I used the tracking cycle suggestion and it was truly such a game changer for me. Love this book. Recommended to all the kar in my life with a cycle

Love the description of cycle phases as seasons. I learned a lot of useful information. I was a bit thrown off by the consistent use of the word “menstruators”.

I love this book! It's easy to understand and Maisie has organized it in a way where the information isn't overwhelming. She also writes in a conversational tone so it's fun to read with her personal input and way of speaking. I have IBS so I loved that the book also talks about food and diet and how your diet impacts your cycle. I also have bad cramps, PMS, mood swings, etc. and this book really helped me be kinder to myself on my off days. TRACK YOUR CYCLE :) You'll learn a lot about your body and mind. I actually ended up going off of my birth control after reading this book and I'm happy I did.

Definitely some good parts, but others need improvement

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2023

Verified Purchase

Some parts of this book are nicely written and well worth a read, particularly the description of the menstrual cycle and the thorough explanation for why it's not a good idea to take the pill. On the other hand, this book is a bit slim on solutions for common period complaints (or at least, for the issues I was most interested in). For example, I tend to suffer from period headaches, which can at times be quite severe, and the commonly repeated solutions throughout the book for all period ills of avoiding caffeine and alcohol, eating more protein, eating a healthy diet low in sugar, eliminating stress, avoiding excessive exercise during the luteal phase, and sleeping more are things I'm already doing...so that leaves me without a meaningful solution to that problem. By contrast, in another related period book (The Period Repair Manual by Lara Briden), multiple possible treatments are listed, which gives me something actionable beyond the obvious (in this case, her recommendations additionally include to avoid wheat and try melatonin, Vit. B2, and/or magnesium supplements). The section on menopause and perimenopause also leaves much to be desired in terms of practical solutions for dealing with the symptoms. Her main suggestion there is to see an expert, which is not why I'm reading a book like this (since I would precisely like to avoid having to see anyone, if possible, when I go through that phase of my life!). Throughout the book, I felt the material could have been shortened and some of the main points could have been better/more clearly organized and presented.
