5.0 out of 5 stars A great, if technical, overview of PCOS, May 20 2004
By The_PCOS_Coach (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
It can be a bit difficult to wade through some of the medical information in this book. However, it is vital reading for any of the 5-10% of women who have PCOS. Information truly is power when you suffer from PCOS. This book is a great basis for understanding this syndrome, deciding on treatment, and explaining PCOS to your family, friends, and others.

This is the best overview of PCOS available. Thatcher covers all of the important information and offers explanations of treatments available. Many women with PCOS are not getting the treatment they need because their doctors overlook symptoms or assume that PCOS is a cosmetic problem or a fertility issue. Get this book, read it, then use your newfound knowledge to get the treatment you deserve.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too technical, Jan 30 2004
By A Customer
This book was obviously written by a doctor and is written so that only other doctors can understand it. It would have been nice to have this complicated syndrome explained for the everyday person. If you can get through all the technical mumbo jumbo, then it's a good book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good and Bad..., Sep 12 2003
By A Customer
This is the first book I have gotten on PCOS. It is good on explaining things but it goes into too much technical detail on how the body works. I would have liked it better if it was in more of a laymans terms. In my opinion this is a book more for a doctor then a patient.

I do like the book, don't get me wrong. My doctor has had more use with it then me however.
