  • Most women initially discuss health-related matters with a primary care clinician and can have a plethora of sex-specific medical needs throughout the life course. With greater expectations for GPs and allied health professionals to manage many women's health conditions, this is an invaluable guide for primary care practitioners looking to deliver holistic care to their female patients. This new edition has been thoroughly updated with the most recent guidelines, covering topics such as contraceptive choices, infertility, breast conditions, pregnancy and menopause, along with specific diseases such as ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer. There is a spotlight on the early diagnosis of endometriosis as well as the need for wider menopausal and psychosexual care.

  • Focusing on the principles of physiological interpretation of CTG, this new edition promotes an evidence-based approach to interpreting fetal heart rate changes. Traditional classification systems are arbitrary and associated with increased caesarean sections without improvements in perinatal outcomes. Guiding the reader in the use of novel tools to help eliminate avoidable, intrapartum-related fetal hypoxic-ischaemic brain injuries and their long term consequences such as cerebral palsy and learning difficulties, this book moves away from traditional, illogical classification systems. Topics such as non-hypoxic causes of fetal brain injury, types of intrapartum hypoxia, and medico-legal issues are clearly explained, and new chapters on human factors in CTG interpretation and the development of new technologies that can reduce human errors are included. Methods discussed comply with the International Expert Consensus Statement on Physiological Interpretation of CTG (October 2024), authored by over 50 CTG experts from over 20 countries.

There are clear descriptions of techniques, plus photographs, diagrams and videos to improve learning.

This remains a much-valued, and much-consulted, part of any accoucheur's library.

A leading expert in cervical cancer prevention, Dr Linda Eckert takes her years of experience and weaves it together with the voices of the courageous women who use their own experience of cervical cancer to advocate for change. This heart-breaking, yet hopeful, book takes you through the world of cervical cancer with evidence-based information, personal stories and actionable outcomes.

  • Approximately one in twenty men have sperm counts low enough to impair fertility but little progress has been made in answering fundamental questions in andrology or in developing new diagnostic tools or management strategies in infertile men. Many of these problems increase with age, leading to a growing population of men seeking help. To address this, there is a strong movement towards integrating male reproductive and sexual healthcare involving clinicians such as andrologists, urologists, endocrinologists and counselors. This book will emphasize this integrated approach to male reproductive and sexual health throughout the lifespan. Practical advice on how to perform both clinical and laboratory evaluations of infertile men is given, as well as a variety of methods for medically and surgically managing common issues. This text ties together the three major pillars of clinical andrology: clinical care, the andrology laboratory, and translational research.
