“Hi, I’m a doctor, and I’m here to tell you:

We’ve been doing it wrong”

- Dr. Shweta Patel

The Book of Hormones takes a bold and refreshing look at how hormonal health has been misunderstood and mistreated by doctors for years.

This book isn’t just a guide—it’s a call to action

Hi! And thanks for checking out my book page

My name is Dr. Shweta Patel and I am a board certified OB/GYN with nearly 15 years of clinical experience.

If you're reading this, I’m going to assume a few things are true:

You’ve been feeling off—physically, mentally, emotionally—but you’ve been told, “Your labs are normal.”
You’ve got hot flashes and night sweats leaving you drenched, sleepless and exhausted.
You're gaining weight, losing hair, and feel like an emotional time bomb.
You've been told to try exercising more, eating less, sleeping more, stressing less and even trying Yoga and anti-depressants; but it hasn't worked.
You’ve been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or reminded that this is a "natural" part of getting older, more times than you can count.

But What If I Told You...

The real reason that your labs keep coming back “normal”…
The real reason you’re gaining weight (even when you’re eating less and moving more)…
The real reason your doctor hasn’t mentioned any of this…or worse, dismissed it as " normal" or "natural"
And most importantly: You’re not crazy. You’re not lazy. And you’re definitely not alone

You’ve just been operating without a playbook: This book is here to change that

The Study That Misled an Entire Generation of Doctors

WOMENS HEALTH INITIATIVE STUDY (WHIS)

💥 Linked hormone therapy to breast cancer & heart disease

💥 Doctors panicked. Women were taken off hormones overnight

💥 Even today, many doctors STILL won’t prescribe them

But here’s what they didn’t tell you:

🚨 The WHI study wasn’t even about treating menopause - it was about disease prevention

🚨 The women studied were, on average, 63 years old - NOT women just entering menopause

🚨 Newer research proves hormone therapy is safe and even BENEFICIAL for many women

Yet many doctors still don’t know this

This is EXACTLY WHY I wrote THIS BOOK

For years since, women have gone through the same cycle:

👉 Feel awful → 👉 Go to the doctor → 👉 Told it’s “just stress” → 👉 Leave with no answers.

But here’s the truth:

❌ This is NOT just aging

❌ It is NOT just stress

❌ And it is NOT in your head

And it's time we flip the script and do something about it

"Shweta Patel brilliantly writes The Book of Hormones"

"Shweta Patel brilliantly writes The Book of Hormones to help readers understand and take control of their health. You will learn about mental and physical changes that occur through puberty, pregnancy, perimenopause, and menopause. Although this book is about medical explanations of health symptoms, prevention methods, and treatments, the writing style is humorous and easy to understand. The tone is similar to chatting with a good friend about our bodies and how to take control of our health journey.

What I liked most about this book is the chapter that summarizes the natural and medical treatments. It makes it easy to reference remedies for various symptoms of menstruation and menopause. Patel wrote about prevention, holistic methods, and many different medical treatments. This book stands out from other health books because the author provides a fitness routine and explains what happens to your hormones during different types of exercises. Readers will understand why their bodies are changing and learn several ways to improve their mental and physical health"
