The Endometriosis Sourcebook: The Definitive Guide to Current Treatment Options, the Latest Research, Common Myths About the Disease and Coping Strategies (Sourcebooks) Paperback – 1 Sept. 1995

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.

Given the high ratings for this book I had high expectations. Found this book not to be as informative as I had hoped

This book is rather depressing as well as technical and some of the treatment advice I feel is becoming out of date. May be good for reference but not one to make you feel hopeful about your options or your future.

Think its okay, cant remember

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!
