- When the strange pains in your abdomen have been diagnosed as
- "Endometriosis," you may wish for more information about this puzzling and
- distressing disease that affects women during their reproductive years.
- Because the endometrial tissue, which normally forms only inside of the
- uterus, can be positioned in so many other locations within the body, the
- symptoms can be most variable in nature and severity. Understanding the
- nature, causes and treatments of endometriosis can be of extreme value in
- coping with its affects. Obtaining the comprehensive and instructional
- information booklet "Endometriosis" from the Endometriosis Association can be
- the first step in gaining the knowledge you need. It provides basic
- information about the disease and its treatments, and how the association can
- be a source of help and assistance. The brochure is available in English,
- Spanish, French, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese and German and can be obtained by
- sending a stamped self-addressed business sized envelope to the Endometriosis
- Foundation, International Headquarters, 8585 N. 76th Place, Milwaukee, WI
- 53223. Please specify which language you prefer.
