Definitely not a "positive new approach",

This review is from: Miscarriage (Paperback)
I bought this book because of the extensive sections on recurrent miscarriage, but rather than providing possible solutions and treatments, it simply bombards you with possible causes and no solutions. Worse than that, it dismisses solutions that are not only prescribed by most books on the subject, but by most doctors as well (progesterone replacement, baby aspirin, vitex, etc). The most shocking thing I read in this book was the author's claim that progesterone deficiency wasn't a cause of recurrent miscarriage, but a symptom of a miscarriage that is impending. When other books on miscarriage as well as new research into "premenopause" and other hormonal imbalances have concluded just the opposite (miscarriage is a symptom of the hormonal imbalance).
I'm so glad my copy of "Miscarriage, Medicine, and Miracles" arrived first, so I had already read that wonderfully informative and positive book as well as a great book on progesterone deficiency (What You're Doctor Won't Tell You About Premenopause) before I read this. If I had read this three days after my last miscarriage I can't imagine how much worse it would have made me feel. If you're looking for success stories, forget it. If you're looking for hopeful and helpful solutions, forget it. In short, this book blows.
