A practical approach to the field of androgen excess or deprivation in
women`s health. The content includes multiple viewpoints on the most
common disorders in this class, such as polycystic ovary disease ,
hirsutism and menopausal issues. Each chapter provides a combination of
long-lasting clinical principles in the diagnosis and management of
these patients along with a state-of-the-art review. This text takes an
innovative approach to uncommon conditions (e.g. congenital adrenal
hyperplasia, transgender conditions). In addition to presenting
clinical insights, and a review of the basic science underpinning these
conditions, it focuses on key concepts that can be derived from these
rare conditions to the entire field. This book is an essential addition
to the library for any busy clinician who is looking for a practical
reference guide but also for the sub-specialist who is looking for new
and thought-provoking insights in this complex scientific area
