Pelvic pain affects millions of women all over the world. Endometriosis is often the cause, but other conditions can cause similar pain.

Some realise early that there is something wrong, whereas others have endometriosis found unexpectedly during investigation for pelvic pain, ovarian cysts or difficulty becoming pregnant. As most women know very little about endometriosis, being diagnosed can be confusing and worrying. Answers the questions women want answered. Fully explains the medical and surgical aspects of endometriosis in simple terms/ Explains the risks. Provides a holistic approach by giving information on complementary medicine, natural therapies and dietary advice. Written in an easy-to-read style by expert authors. Includes new treatment options. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Invaluable 23 Mar 2007

By Jen

Format:Paperback

This book gives very clear information on possible causes of endometriosis and pelvic pain arising from other conditions. It also describes available medical, surgical and complimentary treatments in a way that will empower women when attending medical appointments. The book is written with great empathy, but is not slushy or sentimental. If you only buy one book to help you understand your condition and the options you have for treatment, I cannot recomend this one highly enough.

Get THIS book! 5 Sep 2007

By woman with endo

Format:Paperback

My consultant recommended this book when my endo was diagnosed. It helped beyond belief. It took all the worries out of my inevitable hysterectomy and was an invaluable resource.
If you want to be in control and informed about your condition, without being baffled, scared or patronised with oversentementality, then get this book.
I've since bought copies for other women with pelvic pain and they've been greatly received and well used.

Really interesting 12 July 2009

By T. Robinson

Format:Paperback

This book is easy to read and keeps it real, especially if you are just starting to find out what is wrong or you haven't got a diagnosis yet as it explains diagnosis tests etc however even for women like myself how has had years of genealogical problems it was interesting. Doesn't use jargon without explaining, may help you discuss your options throughout your treatment especially if like me you feel you haven't been able to manage or control your condition. Informative details and diagrams for women and their partners/families who are suffering with endometriosis or any pelvic pain issues. Quite an empowering book for women with suffer with this condition.
