Press Release Body = May 09, 2007 Homewood, Illinois
An estimated 5.5 million women are diagnosed with endometriosis each year, yet this devastating condition remains somewhat of a mystery for doctors and patients alike. Women who are afflicted with this illness often suffer from excruciating pain, exhaustion, depression and a myriad of other symptoms. A new site it being launched by Kristi P. Carter, endometriosissymptom.com, the will help to educate women who endure the pain, both physical and emotional, of endometriosis. \"I wanted to provide women with traditional and non traditional medical treatments,\" Carter says, \"A place of support and understanding that they could visit and learn from.\"
Although not a sufferer herself, Carter has undertaken the daunting task of pulling together a plethora of resources, information and treatment options, allowing women who do suffer from endometriosis make informed, knowledgeable decisions about their illness. She was inspired to take action when two of her very close friends were diagnosed with endometriosis. It was then that the reality and enormity of the illness was really brought home for her.
Visitors to the site will have, at their fingertips, information about endometriosis, its symptoms, causes, cures and treatments. She explores both traditional and non traditional options for seeking relief from endometriosis. There is information on the site about getting pregnant when they have endometriosis, the possible link between endometriosis and certain types of cancer, treatment options that are available and how patients can work with their doctors to find the best course of treatment for them.
One item that sets www.endometriosissymptom.com apart from other sites that are dedicated to endometriosis is the candid and straightforward discussion on hysterectomy as a treatment for endometriosis. Additionally, alternative treatment information and support are available in a tone that speaks directly to women. Because this site was created by women for women, there is an element of understanding. Women today have a lot on their plate with family, career and everything in between. A condition such as endometriosis can sabotage all of that and work in a woman\'s life to separate her from her family and decrease her performance at work. While a woman needs information on this, they also need understanding and empathy. They need to know that they are not alone. On this, Carter comments, \"I know the pain and suffering and frustration that they (women with endometriosis) experience and wanted to help other women with this condition.\"
Kristi P. Carter of Homewood, Illinois is both creator and owner of the website www.endometriosissymptom.com. She has other sites that are also dedicated to helping women with health issues as well.
