Coping with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
by Christine Craggs-Hinton and Dr. Adam Balen
PCOS is a caused by a hormonal imbalance and can result in distressing symptoms such as acne, irregular or absent periods and increased hair growth on the face and body. For some, PCOS will even lead to infertility, hair loss and weight gain.
Not all women will experience all of the symptoms and what the sufferer experiences may change over time, which can make the syndrome particularly difficult to deal with. Coping with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome has been written to help sufferers to cope with the changing nature of the disorder and its effects.
This book will reassure and help women to cope with this ever-changing disorder and provide them with an accessible resource for a condition that is not always easy to talk about.
Christine Cragg -Hinton is a health writer and her books include Living with Fibromalgia, The Fibromalgia Healing Diet and The Chronic-Fatigue Healing Diet.
Dr. Adam Balen is Consultant in Reproductive Medicine and Surgery at Leeds General Infirmary and has had an interest in the causes and treatment of PCOS for many years.
