Abstract

A legendary doctor who established a women's outpatient clinic teaches how to overcome the barriers of aging. Tips for extending your healthy lifespan from your 40s. The difference between those who become bedridden and those who don't is how you spend your time from menopause onwards! When and how do women living alone change in old age, as they age? How do you prepare for it? An authority on women's medicine teaches how to overcome the mysterious barriers of aging for women. Dr. Amano is a pioneer who contributed to the establishment of women's outpatient clinics and medical departments exclusively for women, which have now become commonplace. As an internist for 58 years, she survived in the medical world, which is an extremely male-dominated society, raised three daughters, and now, at the age of 81, she reveals for the first time the driving force behind her power to continue to work energetically in medical practice, tips for thinking, and the secrets to health.
