Saving my life!:
I was diagnosed with PCOS 15 years ago and have tried everything under the sun to get help. I've been to countless doctors and no one could help because there is no cure for PCOS. Everyone told me the same thing: lose weight. If you have PCOS, you know this is virtually impossible. No matter what I tried, the scale would not budge. I bought this book, and for 2 weeks I have been following the diet, excercise and mental wellness advice, and I have lost 13 lbs!!! I have not been able to lose as much as 5 lbs... more info
Nothing:
This is the same information your docor will tell you. Eat less carbs, exercise more and homiopathic remedies are unproven. All in all not very useful. If you have PCOS I'm sure you've already been told all this. If you just want to understand what your sister or friend is going through it cost less to look it up online. I gave it one star because at least the information is correct.
a great reference:
This is a great book. I've only read part of it so, far but already it's an easy to use referance. There are other PCOS books I have gotten that are too scientificto understand easily and seem to be more for the British then US audiences. This book is for both, easy to understand and full of fantastic tips to alleviate symptoms and to bring up with your dr. This diesease is such a pain to deal with it's nice to have a good referance like this. I would highly recommend it.
Managing PCOS for dummies:
Its a great book it tells me alot of information that is easy to understand rather than something thats really hard to understand. I have made some things from the recipies and they are really nice.
