3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting alternative look at endometriosis!, April 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Endometriosis and Infertility and Traditional Chinese Medicine: A Laywoman's Guide (Paperback)
Although this book is short, it is quite technical into the differing ways that Chinese medicine views women's health conditions, such as endometriosis. I would recommend that you know a little about the way Chinese medicine looks at deficiencies and stagnations in the various meridians before delving into this book. Otherwise, this information might sound repetitive and be difficult to dissect into usable portions. On a positive note, there is accurate and interesting information in this book on an underexplored topic.
