A must-have for your female fertility library

This book saved my life. I live in Omaha, NE, which boasts an impressive medical community, but I can't tell you home many doctors I saw that did not know the information in this book! If you are having ANY type of hormonal disorders, including unusual menstrual cycles, severe PMS symptoms (including depression), hair loss, excessive facial hair, excessive acne, get yourself this book and get yourself to an ENDOCRINOLOGIST, NOT an obgyn, dermatologist, or psychologist. Do NOT let a doctor put you on "the pill" for your symptoms; that will only fix the symptoms, not the underlying problem! In many cases, the pill will only make your problem worse and possibly affect later abilities to conceive. This book will explain it all.This book is well written for a lay-person to read, but keep your medical dictionary handy. DON'T let any doctor that is unwilling to hear what you have to say from reading this book treat you.
Most Doctors Don't Know What They're Doing!!!

I've been asking different types of doctors for years why I don't get my period and they all gave me different -- and unconcerned -- answers. It wasn't until discovering this book that I found out my menstrual problems were actually related to my diet-like eating habits! I was eventually diagnosised with polycystic ovary syndrome, but even the doctor that diagnosed me didn't know how to treat it. When I mentioned the information in Dr. Redmond's book, her and her nurses thought I was crazy! If it hadn't been for this book, I would still be relying on the doctors I've met (which are,unfortunately, mere humans) and their outdated ways of treatment. It's unfortunate that patients often have to research their own problems, but if you must, this book is the perfect guide to women's hormones -- the science of what's going on in there, but written for the average Jane. I've already purchased three more copies to send anonomously to my previous misguided doctors!!!
This is an excellent source of information!

I have read this book and shared it with several friends. This information agreed with the information from my doctor and explained why my doctor was using certain drugs. I shared the info on piuitary disorders, perimenopause, adrogenic disorders, and hirsutism with several of my friends and they all want a copy too. I consider this book an excellent reference tool.
I am ordering another copy for myself since I gave away mine

After spending years of going through severe pms mood swings(especially depression) and going to various doctors, I found this book. While in school I did not have any health insurance and I gave my book to a friend that was having difficulty w/pms. I now have insurance again, and before I visit my doctor, I want to reread certain applicable chapters and show them to her when I have my appointment. This book shows women suffering from hormonal problems that hormones CAN influence moods and that it IS a medical problem that can be helped with hormonal treatment--and should be treated as such. THANK YOU Dr. Redmond for writing this book.
A great resource for women with hormonal problems

I was really impressed by this book. Dr. Redmond does an excellent job of explaining in plain English how the hormonal system works, and perhaps more importantly, how it can go wrong and how problems can be treated. My copy is full of underlines, highlights, and annotations as I have referred to it over and over during some recent "female" problems. I would highly recommend this book to anyone experiencing hormonally related problems such as abnormal periods, acne, facial hair, hair loss, puberty problems, and menopause problems. It is well worth the money.
