Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex condition relating to
a hormone imbalance of the ovaries. It can cause irregular or
absent menstrual cycles, reduced fertility, excess facial/body hair
growth and an increased risk of diabetes. An estimated 10% of the
adult female population - approximately 2 million of the 19 million
adult women in Britain - are affected by PCOS. Written by a
consultant endocrinologist and a dietician who run a PCOS clinic at
a major hospital in the UK, this book aims to help women better
understand PCOS and manage their condition. The book comprises
concise chapters offering practical advice on the causes, symptoms,
diagnosis and treatment of PCOS. The book also includes a useful
section dedicated to weight management as well as a resource
section including GI and calorie tables, and a list of helpful
websites. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: The Facts is an invaluable
resource that will empower women with PCOS with the knowledge to
take control of their health and provide them with strategies to
cope with their condition.
