These two volumes provide comprehensive information about the physiology and pathology of the endocrine systems involved in female development, the regulation of the menstrual cycle, human reproduction, an the postmenopause. They focus especially on the detection and significance of female sex hormones, clinically useful function tests, and indications and therapies involving sex hormones. They also explain the significance of environmental influences on endocrine systems and therapies. The new methods of assisted reproduction are described and evaluated. A large number of diagrams, tables and excellent illustrations are used to present our current knowledge in this medical field.
