Although Ms. Fromer gives all the treatment options available for endometriosis the information is the same as what you will find in The Endometriosis Sourcebook. If you are looking for a complete guide to treating this disease then get the sourcebook and do not waste your time and money purchasing this book.

Apart from not being particularly well written, this book does not deal as much with endometriosis as it deals with the problems women (and men) can have when they have to deal with the health care system. It is written in a negative style, and there is very little help to hand for the endometriosis patient who has to make a decision about the best long-term care available. It is not very well researched and facts are wrong in many places. It feeds old myths about the disease, and gives no new insights into the management of endometriosis.

I did not care for this book at all. I found that the author's chapter on infertility was on the insulting side.

This is a very badly written negative book. The author did not research the topics very well and she seems to dwell on any negative thing that can happen to a woman. I had to stop reading the book because it was depressing me and turning me into a pessimist about my own fertility.

If you're looking for a book that discusses all possible treatment options for endometriosis, this is NOT the book to buy. The author is extremely negative. I too stopped reading it due to the hopelessness that underlies each chapter. Save your money!

I completely disagree with the other reviewer - I wanted facts and information, not a feel good puff piece and I got exactly what I needed. It sounds like the other reviewer wants to be reading emotional self help books rather than informative medical books.
