MAKE SURE YOU TYPE OVARY AND NOT OVARIAN... The guide is close to 200 pages with TONS of research, and an international PCOS physician listing. Your personal doctor should have a copy, too, because it breaks down all of the various research topics like clomid & pcos, metformin & pcos, pregnancy & pcos, etc... Did I mention that this is a MUST HAVE - I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DOWNLOADING THIS FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR DOCTOR! **** PCOS: The Hidden Epidemic - CLICK HERE! by: Dr Samuel Thatcher - Excellent book! Many of the cysters on the Message board actually go to Dr Thatcher for treatment. I refer to it all the time when I have a question. **** PCOS: A Woman's Guide to Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome - CLICK HERE! by: Colette Harris - Colette is a UK cyster who works as a writer for health magazines. In this, the first book out on PCOS, she writes about her experience dealing with PCOS. She offers detailed explanations of what is going on in our bodies... **** Living with PCOS - CLICK HERE! by: Angie Best-Boss - Angie is also a cyster. In this lovely book she details her experience, and offer very easy to understand explanations of the various treatments available. Her section on "herbal remedies" is especially good. **** Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome - CLICK HERE! by: Gabor T. Kovacs - This book is actually for clinicians, so it is a bit pricey. That said, it provides a guide to the diagnosis of the syndrome, its etiology, pathology, and effective medical management. Focuses on the syndrome's role in infertility and the use of new assisted reproductive technologies to overcome this problem. |

| Registered User Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: Indiana ![]() | Ok I'd like to get a book so I know more about PCOS. Although I was diagnosed with it i have no clue what it really is. But I'd like to have a book that will be easy to understand. I'm not a medical person at all, so I dont want to buy a book taht uses all medical terms with no explanation. Any suggestions on what book would be "easy" reading??

| Registered User | smilies610, if it helps, I have read the book Living with PCOS and I thought it was very easy to understand (I had my husband read it too, I thought it gave a good overview of the syndrome + treatments). That one might be a good one to start with.

| I believe in faeries! Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Sarver, PA ![]() | here is another suggestion for a good read on pcos - - "A Patient's Guide to PCOS; Understanding and Reversing Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome" by Walter Futterweit, M.D. I only bought it 2 days ago and already half way through, it has everything in it, including diets, exercise, and ttc!

| Registered User Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: Winnipeg ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I've also read "It's my ovaries, stupid!" by Elizabeth Lee Vliet M.D. And I agree with Little Lady, it's a great book, very informative. Another book by Dr. Vliet that helped me to understand a whole lot is "Women, Weight and Hormones". Has anyone read The savvy womans guide to PCOS? |
