Everywoman's Medical Handbook

Dr. Miriam Stopppard, dynamic physician, respected author, and passionate advocate of patients' rights, has written the definitive women's health sourcebook. Convenient and comprehensive, this reference is an invaluable A to Z directory to conditions, diseases, procedures, and symptoms, with extensive cross-referencing and signposts that will help point you in the right direction, if you're not certain what is wrong. Once you find the problem, the entry is arranged to answer your most urgent questions, such as: what caused it; should I see a doctor; what will the doctor do; what are my options; what can I do to help, and more.
