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.

The phenomenon of bleeding has been shown to appear in up to 22% of all pregnancies and is associated with significant maternal and fetal morbidities, and even mortality. Although vaginal bleeding occurs mainly during the first trimester, it can appear at any stage of pregnancy and in the postpartum period. This sometimes life-threatening event requires an extensive work-up in order to recognize its cause and establish a rapid and effective therapeutic approach. This book is a comprehensive appraisal of this critical condition. It draws on evidence-based data and brings together, in a single volume, updated information on all aspects of pregnancy-related bleeding. A global group of interdisciplinary experts contributed chapters on: bleeding during early pregnancy (early pregnancy loss, ectopic pregnancy, gestational trophoblastic disease, and cancer of the reproductive tract during pregnancy); bleeding in late pregnancy (preterm delivery, placental abruption, placenta previa, vasa previa and uterine rupture); and postpartum hemorrhage.

The thyroid disorders are one of the most common and exciting areas of endocrinology. Hypothyroidism, multinodular goiter, hyperthyroidism and thyroid cancer are only few of the several implications that the thyroid disorders have in health. In fact, thyroid hormones regulate not only metabolism process, but also many other molecular and physiological systems. From this point of view, hyperthyroidism complications are a good example of the significance of thyroid hormone actions. This book aims to provide a general view of thyroid disorders, and a deeper explanation of hyperthyroidism and its complications and impact in health.
