This is an excellent book which clearly and concisely explains the myriad of conditions which can affect a woman from menarche through to menopause. I am a naturopath and medical herbalist and I have found this book invaluable. It is the first of its kind to cover the medical and alternative solutions to common gynaecological complaints. While it provides self-help information for the reader, I was impressed that it always advocates proper medical and professional advice and check-ups. A real gem.

as I am studying nutrition this book will be a great help to me when advicing patients. it is full of extremely helpful advice all in both a medical and natural medicine basis.

it will always be with me as a reference book, which has good possitive advice.

Ruth Trickey has written a comprehensive, clear and interesting book which will undoubtedly help any woman with a reproductive system-related problem and will help all women to know that part of themselves better.

This is one of the most highly respected references in our library on the subject of women's health, particularly amongst students and practitioners in our herbal medicine department.
You should know however that a 2011 edition is now available (for $160 Australian dollars) that has several new sections and many enhancements of older sections.
The older editions are still viable and acurate.

Either for yourself or a loved one this is really informative and great to fall back on throughout your life. How many woman have zero idea about themselves hormonally? Highly recommended!

This book is aimed to increase our understanding of what happens to women throughtout their cycle. The issues that are adressed within, are highly informative and introduces the reader to new issues that orthodox medicine is only beginning to understand or ignores completely.

this is a wonderfully written book. the information is both detailed and easy to understand.
