'If you want to learn more about hormones, this is THE book to get' Davina McCall, author of Menopausing
From cortisol to GLP-1, everyone is talking about hormones: Signals cuts through the noise and misinformation to help you finally understand yours. Dr Hameed reveals the workings of the miraculous hormone system and its far-reaching influence on men's and women's physical, emotional and mental health at every stage of life.
Dr Saira Hameed is one of the UK's leading endocrinologists with over twenty years experience treating patients. Here, she invites us into her clinic to see what happens when the body's signaling system - our network of endocrine glands and hormone signals - breaks down.
Sit beside Dr Hameed as she treats patients with crippling exhaustion, agonising infertility, absent libido and frenzied disorientation. Witness a young boy who can't stay awake and a teenage girl whose racing heart will not be able to keep going much longer...
Combining compassionately told patient stories with pioneering medical breakthroughs - and exposing common misconceptions along the way - Signals is a vital book for anyone who wants to understand their health and happiness.
