Best source of information for women with PCOS
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I was recently diagnosed with PCOS and bought every book I could find on the subject. After reading all of them, I still think that this is the best choice. It has so much information that is easy to understand. I found out some things about this syndrome that I had not been aware of before, all thanks to this book. The book breaks down all the information on the subject to make it easy to comprehend. I placed an order for several other books so that I can give them to family members who don't understand much about this condition. I also ordered a copy for my doctor!

I purchased the book as a gift for my niece who was recently diagnosed with PCOS. She was amazed when she recognized symptoms she had for years and some she hadn't even recognized. She felt the book was so informative she plans to give a copy to her doctor.

This excellent book is a comprehensive reference source. From definition to treatment, from resources to pregnancy efforts, this book is a must-have for anyone with PCOS. As a fertility coach, I recommend this book to the women I am coaching who struggle with this syndrome. This book is simple to read, well-organized and packed full of information. It's also a small book, and can fit into your purse or bag for easy reading. I love books that I can read on the run, can carry with me, and can get a lot out of a few pages. This book fits the bill. I have read a lot about PCOS, but this is the best compact guide that I have read yet. For lots of basic, helpful information, buy this book!
Living With PCOS

I live in Japan and have found a wonderful doctor. However, the language barrier has made it hard for me to understand my condition. This book was easy to understand and very up-to-date. It is written so that anyone can understand it. My doctor is even borrowing it now for more info.! Great book.
Very informative
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I read this book and found it be very informative. It's written in plain english with no big complicated words, therefore easy for any person to read. Through study, I have found that there are many women out there who suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome and they don't know alot about the disorder , which causes irregular menstrual cycles, excess facial and body hair, weight gain, and adult acne. It's also a leading cause of infertility and if left untreated, the condition carries long term risk for endometrial cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. This book sheds light on the condition, it explains it well, talks about over-coming symptoms, choosing a doctor, getting diagnosed and coping with the emotional impact. I think the book is very informative and I highly recommend it to all women, if you don;t suffer from polcystic ovary syndrome, chances are you might know someone who does.
