No More Hysterectomies by Vicki Hufnagel
Thousands of women each year have hysterectomies, yet for many of them, contends the author, this radical surgery may have been unnecessary. A pioneer in female reconstructive surgery, she offers hope to millions of women by describing what happens during a hysterectomy. She also explains why heavy or painful periods and premenstrual syndrome may not be a reason for radical surgery. This is a book for all women who want to be fully informed about a health decision which could affect them for the rest of their lives.
