This is essential reading for both the general gynaecologist and specialist in reproductive medicine produced by recognised leaders in the field.' - Highly Commended, Obstetrics & Gynaecology Category, 2006 BMA Medical Book Competition 'Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is the best attempt so far to integrate conflicting views of this syndrome into an understanding that will help the general physician, endocrinologist, dermatologist, gynecologist, and radiologist in treating patients.' - The New England Journal of Medicine, December, 2005 'This book is a wonderful overall management guide for physicians who see patients with PCOS. The book is an easy-to-read guide that covers the entire range of topics pertinent to PCOS. Because chapters are divided according to a symptom-orientated approach, the book is easy to use as a quick reference.' - Fertility and Sterility
