A complete guide to the side-effects and treatments - both
conventional and alternative - for endometriosis, from a respected
name in the field who also suffers from endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a debilitating reproductive and immunological
disease that affects 7-10 million American women each year. The
disease occurs when the same kind of tissue that lines the walls of
the uterus grows outside the uterus in the pelvic cavity or some
other area of the body, usually significantly affecting the woman's
fertility and often causing pelvic pain. And as with any condition
that affects fertility, the results are often emotional and
psychological as well as physical.
As someone who suffers from endometriosis, and who has
connections to a wide network of healthcare professionals, Morris
is the perfect person to guide sufferers through diagnosis,
treatment and living well with the condition. Like the previous
titles in our successful Living Well series, this book will offer a
holistic approach to living with the disease. The author will offer
strategies for coping with the psychological aspects of
endometriosis, including how best to tell others about the
condition; treatment options including alternative and
complementary treatment plans; dealing with infertility; and
weighing the hysterectomy option. The author will draw on her
relationship with fellow sufferers as well as medical professionals
to help readers, making this the most comprehensive guide to
endometriosis available.
Kerry-Ann Morris was diagnosed with endometriosis in 1999.
Since then she has become one of the most active members of the
endometriosis community, and has started an outreach website for
the disease.She has relationships with many fellow sufferers and
experts in the medical community, making her the perfect author for
a book on holistic treatment.
