Endometriosis From Harm to Hope - Casey Berna - diskuze

Endometriosis is so much more than "a bad period" or a reproductive disease. Endometriosis ravages us, decimating our organs, fertility, and quality of life. It can affect multiple systems in our bodies, including our digestive system, urinary system, endocrine system, nervous system, and immune system. Endometriosis from Harm to Hope explains what endometriosis is, how to manage it, and while there is no cure, what your current treatment options are. Written by a mental health provider who dealt with her own endometriosis for decades, this guide does not gloss over the difficult mental toll of a chronic disease like endometriosis. Instead, it weaves in stories of patients who've been where you are and gives you the tools you need to advocate for yourself in the doctor's office, look after your mental health, and educate yourself, no matter where you are in your endometriosis journey. Endometriosis has taken many things, but despite all it has robbed us of, we still have value. We still have strengths. We are worthy of love, dignity, and joy because we exist, despite our limited capacities. We may not have complete control over our bodies, but through support, self-love, and self-care we can make sure it doesn't ravage every bit of us.
