The best place for unbiased information is the HERS Foundation at hersfoundationDOTorg or to learn everything you ever wanted to know about hysterectomy check out the new book THE H WORD: The diagnostic studies to evaluate symptoms, alternatives in treatment, and coping with the aftereffects of hysterectomy. <br /><br />Here's the link to the book on Amazon and a doctor's review of it is below. I hope this helps. Good luck: <br />http://www.amazon.com/Word-diagnostic-alternatives-aftereffects-hysterectomy/dp/1439220654/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1245253061&sr=8-3<br /><br />“As a physician, I have consulted with Nora W. Coffey many times. I have also sent many of my patients to HERS to become educated to safely avoid unnecessary hysterectomies. After 35 years in a family practice, with over 20,000 women in our care, the incidence of hysterectomy is virtually zero. THE H WORD is for every woman and for healthcare professionals involved in the care of women.”<br />— Mayer Eisenstein, MD, author of several books and the award-winning medical documentary Primum Non Nocere (Above All Do No Harm).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7544339406678724189.post-5557070553951069612009-05-29T09:30:06.021-04:002009-05-29T09:30:06.021-04:00Ellen!!
