In 2007, Holly Bridges was an exhausted single mother with an embarrassing secret, one she concealed with dark clothes, taped-together pads and yes, sometimes, even diapers. Doctors said hysterectomy was her only option.
After the tragic death of her sister just three weeks before her surgery, Holly declared war on her heavy periods and searched for a less risky, less painful solution.
She found one, at the hands of Dr. Sony Singh, a renowned gynecologist who had just set up practice in her own hometown. Today, Holly is pain-free and period-free, with her uterus still intact.
Together, Holly Bridges and Dr. Singh have created an empowering, informative guide for women who are desperate to solve their heavy periods without major surgery. "Your book was a godsend.
Because of what I learned, I was able to march into my gynecologist's office and demand one of the hysterectomy alternatives you describe. Now my periods are manageable and I can still have children. Why didn't my doctor tell me about all these options?"
