In a clear, user-friendly style enhanced by abundant illustrations, the book provides a complete explanation of the female endocrine system and its disorders and offers practical guidance on evaluation and treatment of female endocrine problems and infertility. Coverage includes the latest information on contraception and infertility and new guidelines on hormone replacement therapy during menopause. An eminent reproductive endocrinologist, Marc Fritz, MD, joins Dr. Speroff for this edition. Book News Annotation:The 7th edition of this text, edited by Speroff (Oregon Health &
Science U., Portland) and Fritz (U. of North Carolina, Chapel Hill),

the science. The textbook devotes eight chapters to reproductive
physiology, then turns to clinical endocrinology, with chapters on
topics that include sexual development, abnormal puberty and growth,
amenorrhea, obesity, and reproduction and thyroid. The final two
sections, on contraception and infertility, include chapters on long-
acting methods of contraception, female and male infertility,
endometriosis, induction of ovulation, assisted reproductive
technologies, and ectopic pregnancy.
