Customer Reviews
Informative, concise, readable, knowledgeable book.
I found this book incredibly informative - one of the few that gets the balance right between giving you detailed technical information, with helpful, practical suggestions for coping. It is also up to date and covers a vast amount of information, ranging from pain control, medication, fertility and many other subjects. It is helpfully punctuated with case studies from women who have experienced issues first-hand.
Especially useful for people here in the UK, who do not seem to have as much access to info as those in the States.
Best book on the subject
Having been diagnosed over a year ago, I have an impressive collection of books on endometriosis. This is by far the best. It tells you everything you need to know, and doesn't spend too much time on the sympathising and 'oh what a terrible disease' style of other books on the subject. After all, you know all that stuff.
I got this book just before I started new treatment, and it allowed me to go to my consultant and make informed decisions about my drugs and procedures. Definitely empowering.
I can't recommend this enough. Buy it today!
Worth ever penny
I bought this book after recently being diagnosed with endometriosis and wanting to know what exactely is happening inside me. This book explains the illness clearly and in precise detail but without confusion. I read it before my next appointment with my consultant and knew precisely what he was talking about. I was confident to ask questions about the illness too. It is a must for every sufferer of Endo but also I would recommend their partners to read it too.
