Customer Reviews

Highly Informative for any endo sufferer

Dr. Lyons performed surgery at The Center for Endometriosis Care in Atlanta, GA: a clinic that is on the cutting edge of all the most recent research and technology. He actually invented a surgical technique that is named after him and performed by the surgeons at that clinic. This book is EXCELLENT in that it answers a bevy of questions you have in VERY simple and easy to understand language. I travelled from WV to Atlanta to have my surgery there based on the research/technique that Dr. Lyons did. My surgery was performed by Dr. Ken Sinervo using Dr. Lyons technique and I would HIGHLY recommend that clinic. If you are a sufferer of endometriosis, you NEED this book in your library. It helps to answer most of your questions in terms that are easy to understand and not full of medical jargon that you would have to look up. I recommend buying this book along with Mary Lou Ballweg's. It rounds out a good bevy of info that you will need to deal with and treat your endometriosis.

Great book

I have suffered from Endometriosis for 7 years and this is a very informative book. Lots of information for the newly diagnosed. If you think you have endometriosis or know you have it...get this book!

One of the best Endo books out there!

I checked out every endometriosis book that my library had, this was by far the best. If I could only choose one book to buy before surgery, or right after being diagnosed, this is the one. I appreciated that the author is a well known expert and not just a fellow Endometriosis sufferer.

Great Book

Excellent resource for women and girls!! Detailed and easy to understand. Dr. Lyons is truly the expert on Endometriosis.

Dr. Lyons changed my life

After four doctors attempted to convince me to have a hysterectomy for endometriosis, I traveled to Atlanta to consult with Dr. Lyons. He was the first doctor to take my condition seriously, and through skilled surgery and medical assistance, has changed my life.
