Its effects can be wide-ranging and serious-from problems of ambiguous genitalia in baby girls; to problems with growth and physical development; to problems with infertility and hormone imbalance. When undiagnosed and untreated, CAH can also be life threatening. While severe forms of CAH are uncommon, milder forms can affect as many as 1 in 100 people. Yet, CAH remains difficult to understand and care for. Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: A Parents' Guide takes a nuts-and-bolts look at CAH-what this condition is, how it is inherited, and how it is treated and monitored. This new book on CAH written for a lay audience will be welcomed by all patients and parents who, until now, have had few places to turn for in-depth information. \"As parents you will find this book understandable, complete, and comforting in its upbeat approach. Any pediatrician caring for a CAH child will also be well advised to obtain a copy. I wish I had had one sooner.\" -Dr. John D. Crawford, Emeritus Professor, Harvard Medical School\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Authorhouse","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47613476929687,"sku":"9781420806496","price":2005.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781420806496.webp?v=1775085505","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/congenital-adrenal-hyperplasia-a-parents-guide-9781420806496","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
