Advances in the Treatment of Sexual Precocity and Infertility
Pediatric - adolescent endocrinology and gynecology are entering a new era. Whole exome sequencing approaches with targeted gene panels have become widely available even for prenatal screening, leading to the elucidation of genetic etiologies in endocrine and gynecological diseases and opening the road for genetic precision medicine and the development of specific therapies. The transition from the end of puberty to the attainment of an adult phenotype may be a very long way - up to 10 years or even longer. Meanwhile, conventional approaches to hormone deficiencies are rapidly changing, as are the options for treatment of sexual precocity and infertility. Commercially available rLH/rFSH preparations in the form of pens - used mainly for fertility induction in women – are now being investigated in hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, aiming to a physiological replacement therapy not only at puberty, but also to the replacement of the missing mini-puberty - crucially important for fertility and the very essence of the male-sex identity itself. Furthermore, they provide an alternative to surgery especially for bilateral cryptorchidism, preserving future fertility.

Environmental Endocrinology and Endocrine Disruptors
This book describes how exposure to various classes of endocrine disruptors, as well as other environmental chemicals targeting the endocrine system by alternative non-endocrine mechanisms, impact on endocrinological and endocrinological-related diseases. It includes comprehensive reviews of all aspects of environmental endocrinology, ranging from sources and patterns of exposure and identification of endocrine targets to direct endocrine disruptive mechanisms and indirect actions on the endocrine system, the latter including endocrine cell-directed cytotoxicity, oxidative damage, and genetic and epigenetic aberrations resulting in endocrine damage. It also examines the causal pathways and o...
The Ultimate Stress-Relief Plan for Women
Being "so stressed" has to be the most common description for a woman today -- no matter your age or marital status, whether you have a career or work inside the home. Stress is the gift of modern life that keeps on giving, because, even after you've gotten through a stressful day or week, the effects on your body and mind linger, whether you're aware of them or not. And they can build up and make you sick -- unless you do something to stop them. That's where So Stressed, a landmark new guide to women's health, can help. The realization that stress was the most common cause of all the different symptoms and ailments that their patients were coming to them for was a eureka moment for internat...
Hyperandrogenism in Women
Hyperandrogenism profoundly affects women’s lives from lowering self-esteem to changing cognition and affective motivation. The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common androgen excess disorder worldwide. While it is not the focus of this book, some aspects are discussed. The aim of this book is to improve understanding of androgen excess and its impact on several conditions. Topics include development of adipose tissue in females, insulin sensitivity, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and Cushing’s disease/syndrome. There is also a discussion of PCOS with emphasis on in utero origins and specific genetic and epigenetic factors. This book provides a wealth of relevant information for every endocrinologist and gynecologist who wants to broaden their knowledge of androgens in various conditions.
