Review Quotes
From the reviews:
"This book summarizes the current knowledge about the diagnosis, consequences, and treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). ... It is designed mostly for practicing adult and pediatric endocrinologists and gynecologists. ... this book also could be of interest to bariatric medicine providers who may often encounter patients with PCOS. ... Illustrations are plentiful, of good quality, and aid comprehension. ... It is a worthwhile publication, since information on PCOS is fragmentary and incomplete and there are not many recent extensive reviews of the topic." (Silvana Pannain, Doody's Review Service)
