Review "Avuncular, worldly, humane and open, Redmond is just the sort of guide women will appreciate as they negotiate their way through the startling and often unpleasant terrain of hormonal vulnerability." About the Author Geoffrey Redmond, M.D., is the founder and director of the Hormone Center of New York, a Manhattan clinic dedicated to helping women who suffer from hormone-related problems. An endocrinologist with more than twenty years of experience, he has authored more than one hundred medical and research publications. He received his medical training at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons and Rockefeller University, and he lives in New York City.
There is hope out there ladies! Have not finished the book, but have ready about half. The parts that I have read pertain to my problem and some other issues friends are having. This is the 4th book I have bought that was about hair loss. This book covers more that hair loss. There are so many different reasons women loose their hair, and ways to correct at lease in part if not fully regain the hair. Many reasons have the same symptoms, which makes it difficult. However, this means also that there are more way to get back some if not all your hair. I would recommend this book and The Bald Truth by Spencer Kobren (even before The Truth about women's hair loss by Kobren). If you are considering a hair transplant please read this first. There are other subjects that may come in handy for your friends and family too. waste of money This book had very little information in it. Dr. Redmond is supposed to be knowledgeable about hormones yet mentions little about using bio-identical hormones and doesn't seem to understand the function of progesterone. Don't waste your money or time on this one. The only book you need! As an electrologist I have been guiding women toward the hormonal solutions to their excessive hair growth (mostly facial) and distressing head hair loss, for over 26 years. Until Dr. Redmond's book, it was very difficult to find information by a REAL expert. This book should be read from front page to last page for a full understanding of who Dr. Redmond is, why he is qualified to help, and how to go about solving your specific problem. Any reviewer that says you cannot find your solution with the help of this book is simply wrong--they must not have actually read it! I offer this book to every client that comes through my door with a potential hormone problem (which is almost every client). I have read just about every hormone book that has been published (my clients bring them in). I have attended many seminars-heard many speakers.Some are ok, but none as thorough and fact/science based as Dr. Redmond. Read this book, and go to your physician to get the help you need and deserve!
