through many of these changes myself, I found this book to be very helpful, Lots of research and humor throughout, Great read for women of any age, Ok, Ladies this one's for you! And you don't want to miss it!

Lorraine Pintus has given us a valuable resource in Jump Off the Hormone Swing.
If you suffer from PMS or perimenopause, . . or even if you don't, . . you'll want to read this book, Before I read it, I didn't think I had any hormonal problems, But then I read this:

"Oh, the inner turmoil when one moment I was on my knees compassionately praying for my neighbor, and the next moment I wanted to strangle her and kick her ugly dog.
"

It startled me! It made me laugh out loud, . . And then I thought "How does she know me" Page after page she was writing my story, I couldn't put it down, I couldn't believe what I was reading, She knows exactly how I feel and what I'm going through, So that must mean I'm not the only one!

Before I read this book, I would have never related my feelings to hormones.
I thought I was just a weak woman, I couldn't figure out why I couldn't get it all together, Now I know. Hormones.

Lorraine takes on tough questions like:
How do I manage the swing between feeling super confident and energetic one day, and incompetent and listless the next
How do I handle my selfhatred after downing an extra large bag of peanut M amp M's the day before my period.

How is it that I suddenly find my husband so annoying
How can God possibly love me when I hate myself

Unlike a medical book, Jump Off the Hormone Swing addresses EVERY aspect of PMS.
Physical, Mental Mood, and Spiritual, She gives a very simplified explanation of what part each hormone plays in your body, . . the effects of too little, or too much, Lorraine gives advice on diet and exercise, relieving stress, planning ahead for the days that you know will be the hardest for you Who would have thought, and most of all.
. . she reminds us to invite God into these issues as well,

Lorraine shares from her heart and a Biblical perspective, She shares many of her personal 'aha' moments with us, She shows us how to 'do' life, . . how to be a Godly woman even in the middle of a hormonal storm, You will also find aweek Bible Study in the back of the book, along with a symptom tracker.


There is so much in this book I'd like to share that I can't recommend it highly enough.



I received a copy of this book from Moody Publishers in exchange for my honest review.
Thank you!
OH MY GOODNESS!!! This book has been so helpful in understanding what my body goes through on a monthly basis and helping me see God even in this! Highly recommend.
"That daywhen I lay on the floor in the bedroom closet, curled in the fetal position, sobbingI didn't need medical insight about why.
. . "

All women experience symptoms related to their monthly cycle, it's just a matter of severity, From tender and sore body parts to crying jags, it can be difficult to deal with the most common of life.
Lorraine Pintus believes that "the most horrible symptoms of hormonal swings are often not the aches in our bodies, but the assaults on our souls that

rip our identity and tear at the fabric of our noble calling as women.
" Pintus examines the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of PMS and perimenopause, She states that the spiritual component of this female issue is underexamined,

There are many books available that talk about PMS, menopause, and other cycles of a woman's life.
They are helpful and by incorporating their suggestions, you can improve your physical and sometimes mental health when your hormones make you feel terrible.
What sets Pintus' book apart from the rest is the extra step she takes in talking about how our cycles effect us spiritually.
She does not ignore the physical and mental aspects, in fact, she begins with them, She briefly talks about why women feel poorly, how hormones effect us, and gives tips to alleviate the symptoms.
She then begins to explore how women can be effected spiritually, She gives suggestions for being and acting like a godly woman even when you feel crazy, She challenges you to look at your view of menstruation, She even provides benefits of PMS and perimenopause,

This book provides excellent insight into the many aspects of the monthly cycle, Her insight into the spiritual component makes this book different from others and thus, the one to get.
There is also a helpfulweek study to do alone or in a group, Her chapter notes provide further reading and insight into the topic, It's well written and easy to understand, The suggestions are varied to fit a variety of time limits, budgets, and needs,

Lorraine Pintus has been involved in politics and public relations, sales and the corporate world, She left that behind to raise her girls although she wrote in her spare time and had some weekend speaking engagements.
As her girls grew, so did her ministry to women, She is now an author and speaker encouraging women, She has also worked with Linda Dillow,


Jump Off the Hormone Swing by Lorraine Pintus, Published by Moody Publishing, I received this book free from the publisher in exchange for my honest opinion, Will be blogging about this one very useful for anyone with extreme hormone issues, I have nothing against authors who reference religion or even suggest prayer as a helpful tip, but this had enough references to be distracting.
It also really didn't give me any new information and a lot of the advice wasn't based in science but more common sense.
Eat right, exercise, take a warm bath and pray, pray, pray! Must read for womenand moms of teen girls.
Many of us are affected on both fronts, You don't have to accept the usual "timeofthemonth" excuses, Love Lorraine's research and practical advice, I didn't have any huge realizations from Pintus' book, but it is a good resource to have on hand.
She talks about some physiological factors, as well as spiritual insight, in understanding and coping with female hormones.
Good, at times laugh out loud funny, Heavy on religious aspects. Wow! What a lot of information! Un excelente libro, para poder entender mejor lo que le ocurre a cada mujer en su período menstrual y perimenopausia.

Con este libro podemos entender más sobre quiénes somos en verdad y cómo depende de Dios en todo tiempo.
I finished all but the lastchapters, The book wasn't awful but I wouldn't exactly call it ground breaking either and it's very difficult to get through.
She has good ideas but the content is a little repetitive,

Maybe I am lucky but some of the surprise and outlooks by women about their periods seemed a bit extreme to me.
I'm not saying that I love having my period but I think anyone with common sense can agree there's purpose to it.


Even as ayear old the part I found most interesting was about menopause maybe because I haven't experienced it and don't know much about it.
This book is part practical guide and part spiritual direction for the female function of hormones, The first half gave simple explanations of why my cycle was changing and what perimenopause looks like, I wondered why my doctor couldnt explain it that way, There are some specific things to do to counteract your symptoms most of those you already know like drink water, exercise, cut sugar someday.
. . but her guide on what each hormone does is extremely helpful,
The second half is all the spiritual, Most of these principles were something I learned as a much younger woman so were not really helpful and some examples seemed very far out there because its been many years since I learned how to yield to the Lord in those areas.
I did find some great resources in this section to use in counseling others,
Overall, its a really good book with great practical information, Id like to give it,stars. Lorraine Pintus, probably known best for coauthoring Intimate Issues, has penned a new book that women should RUN not walk and get their hands on.


If youre having menstrual periods, I promise you, you NEED this book! Moms and daughters can read it together because Jump Off The Hormone Swing covers issues from puberty to menopause.
Linda offers practical explanations and advice for the hormonal issues that most all women deal with, While she does touch on the medical aspects of our everchanging bodies, she explains everything very clearly and in a manner that is down to earth.
This book is easy to understand, easy to relate to and hilarious at times! Lorraine writes as if shes sitting right there with the reader, having a “girlfriend” conversation.


I appreciated Lorraines honesty in this book, Writing very openly from her own experiences with PMS, menopause and hormonal mood swings, I could relate to so much of what she shared in this book.
Lorraine writes about the physical, mental and spiritual sides of hormonal issues and offers physical, mental and spiritual advice on how to sail through the choppy waters of raging hormones.
She talks about what worked for her and what didnt, and what she wished she had done differently during the tumultuous years of mood swings.


Lorraine is very direct in this book and hits head on the issue of using PMS and other hormonal fluctuations as an excuse to sin.
She points out that we cannot allow our flesh to dominate and rule us even though were feeling lousy.
I really like that she writes about the importance of Gods Word in our life and how we can fight the enemys tactics and not be ruled by our hormones.
I felt very encouraged and empowered after reading Jump Off The Hormone Swing, It is SO helpful to know that you are not alone in this “war” of emotions and hormones and Lorraine validates women of all ages with this new book.
Lorraine also includes aweek study in the back of this book, which is good for either individuals or groups.


Each chapter of the study has a video to go along with it that you can access on Lorraines website for free.
Thank you Lorraine, for FINALLY “going there” and talking about a subject that many people try to sweep under the rug.


Disclosure of Material Connection:
I received this book free from Moody Publishers as part of their Blogger Program.
I was not required to write a positive review, The opinions I have expressed are my own, This witty book does a good job of simplifying the hormonal imbalances women typically experience with their cycles and perimenopause.
It also has some basic good advice for how to alleviate your symptoms, However, the constant religious references are distracting and not helpful, For instance, several chapters have formulaic prayers that she wants us to say, and she regularly records her prayers for her readers as well as assuring us repeatedly that she has done a great deal of praying over her book.
I can overlook that. What I cannot overlook is the assertion that all PMSmotivated bad behavior is sin, and that if we try to excuse it, we are only being dishonest.
I take issue with that, especially since she has heavily addressed PMDD in previous chapters, PMDD is PMS raised to the level of mental illness, I don't think it is helpful to tell women suffering from hormonerelated mental illness that all their bad behavior is sin, and that they just need to stop it and repent.
Nor was it helpful when she backed up her assertion with "Men don't like it when we blame rude actions on PMS.
" Call me a feminist, but I just couldn't read past that,

Disclosure: I received a free copy of this book from netgalley, com in exchange for my review, Good information. I really enjoyed that there was an emphasis on the spiritual aspects, "When I read the opening chapter title, "Confessions of a PMS Crazed Saint," I thought, PMS and Saint should never be put into the same sentencethey don't belong together! But as I read the book, I was relieved to find that I wasn't alone in my battles to fight the demons that come with my monthly cycle, and that the hated time of the month could, instead, be a blessing from God.
This book is an incredible encouragement to those of us who feel like failures and horrible women when it comes to PMS.
Thank you for reminding me that even when my hormones are out of control, God is still in control!"
Melinda Hughes, who can now put PMS and Saint in the same sentence!

"As a follower of Jesus, mother and sufferer of EXTREME PMS, I most adamantly recommend this book for women of all ages.
Lorraine's insights, testimonials and practical wisdom helped relieve myself as well as my daughter, from the unnecessary PMS drama in our lives.
Her wisdom, through the book and a few emails and phone calls, helped us approach PMS with a much more rational mindset.
I am forever grateful for her counsel, "
Laurie Jackson, health coach
