[Rebekah Mallory · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was informational but dated. The author is not a doctor and seems somewhat against hysterectomies when, for some women, it is necessary.

[Carolyn Virginia · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another useful book.  She spends a lot of time discussing ways to treat the symptons so that surgery, etc. are not necessary. I took notes in my excel file.

Thorough review of all the options. Well researched and presented.
