Who this is for

Partners of someone going through perimenopause or menopause. It does not assume you are a man, or married, or living together — only that you are close enough for this to affect you both.

How to use it

Read Part One on your own first — about twenty minutes.
Then talk about whether to use Part Two. The pages work best filled in together, at a calm time; ask first, and do not present them as homework.
Start with “Two views”. It is the gentlest way in.
Use the check-in page monthly: ten minutes once a month is more useful than one long conversation a year.

What it does not do

It is not relationship therapy or counseling.
It does not diagnose anything or tell anyone what treatment to have.
It does not ask you to manage your partner’s health — those decisions are theirs, made with a clinician.

Format

Digital PDF, to read on screen or print at home
A4 pages, print-friendly (on US Letter, choose “fit to page”)

Educational guide and workbook. Not medical advice.

Midlife Atlas guides help you understand, organize and prepare. They do not diagnose, they do not recommend any treatment, and nothing in them should be used to start, stop or change a medicine. If a symptom worries you, speak to a clinician who knows your history.

It is written against published clinical guidance from the NHS and NICE, and each clinical statement names the body it comes from. It has not yet been reviewed by a named clinician.

Questions

Do we both need to read it?

No. Part One is written for the partner to read alone. Part Two has short pages to fill in together if you both want to.

Does it work alongside another Midlife Atlas workbook?

Yes. It is designed to sit alongside them, and the partner does not need to read the other workbook — what is shared is up to the person using it.

How do I receive it?

Once your payment is confirmed, the PDF is in your Midlife Atlas account under Purchased Guides & Workbooks, ready to download whenever you need it.

Do I need an account?

Yes. A free Midlife Atlas account keeps your purchased downloads available later, so you can come back for the file without relying on an email.

Can I print it or share it?

You can print it for your own use. The licence in the PDF says: For your personal use. You may print it for yourself. Please do not redistribute, resell or share the file.

Who handles the payment?

Paddle.com, our online reseller and Merchant of Record, processes the payment and sends your receipt. It is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. You can have a full refund on any paid guide or workbook within 14 days of buying it, without giving a reason: request it through Paddle at paddle.net, or email hello@midlifeatlas.com. A refunded guide is removed from your account. Our Refund Policy has the details.

Is this a physical book?

No. It is a digital PDF, designed to be read on screen or printed at home. The pages are A4; on US Letter paper, choose “fit to page” when you print.

Is this medical advice?

No. It is an educational guide and workbook. It does not diagnose, it does not recommend treatment, and it does not replace a clinician who knows your history.

Has it been reviewed by a clinician?

Not yet. It is written against published clinical guidance from the NHS and NICE, and each clinical statement names the body it comes from. It has not yet been reviewed by a named clinician. When a medical reviewer is appointed, the guide will carry their name, credentials and review date.
