More My Molar Pregnancy: Personal Stories From Diagnosis Through Recovery

Book excerpt: A second collection of women's personal experiences dealing with gestational trophoblastic disease, more commonly known as molar pregnancy, a rare form of miscarriage. This follow-up volume includes a foreword by Dr. Donald P. Goldstein, one of the most well-known specialists in the study of trophoblastic diseases. Like its predecessor, My Molar Pregnancy, the More My Molar Pregnancy stories vary in the types and severities of each woman's experience, making it likely that any reader with a molar pregnancy will find someone with whom they can relate. Each story begins with diagnosis and retells the entire molar experience to its conclusion and in many cases onward to future pregnancy. It is a book designed to let any woman with this condition-or its related and more severe sister, choriocarcinoma-know: You are not alone.
