Additional information
This book is an illustrated, scientific text on endometriosis and is aimed at practicing gynaecologists. The chapter by Elaine Denny synthesises a number of qualitative research findings to provide insight into the experience of living with endometriosis; it complements the in-depth clinical information. The aetiology Endometriosis is unknown and no definitive treatment is available. Women have consistently reported long delays in diagnosis, and poor experience within the health care system. This chapter provides clinicians with insight into the experience of women, which supplements their clinical knowledge.
