The 'H Word' book is a must to read. I could not put the book down until I had read it all. It is very informative. If I would have had a book like this to read before my surgery, I would never had the surgery. Doctors will never tell you what you need to know to make the right decision. The H Book will tell you about the many consequences and life-altering effects having a hysterectomy and castration will have on your life, sexual enjoyment, health, career and marriage. I ordered 12 books. I sent one to my doctor along with a letter telling him how he has ruined my life and career. I donated a couple books to my local libraries and passed some out to my family.
