Young gynecology patients present challenges unique from the mature woman which are often neglected in traditional ob-gyn training. Recognizing this, Drs Altchek and Deligdisch draw richly from their years of experience to present this user-friendly, practical book providing generous coverage of all aspects of pre-womanhood gynecology.

Designed for the busy clinician who needs an overview and an immediate practical guide to diagnosis and management, this book is a must-have for improving patient care for young patients and gaining personal satisfaction to the physician.
