Críticas:
"The brave, beleagured women who tell their stories. . . provide us with vivid proof that most women and most physicians remain woefully ignorant about the alternatives to and the consequences of unnecessary hysterectomy. In order to ensure that we and our physicians become better informed, this poignant book begins with a strong demand for change and ends with a comprehensive list of resources that help women better protect themselves.

Reseña del editor:
The personal accounts in this collection were written by women who have undergone hysterectomies, and they offer a sobering perspective on the surgery. The potential risks and irreversible consequences of the surgery are presented to dispel popular beliefs that hysterectomies pose no medical or emotional risks. The stories and resources encourage individual women and the medical community at large to consider alternative and more effective treatment options. This replaces 0773762868.
