Welcome to our web site on catamenial pneumothorax! As twin sisters having experienced this condition, we developed this site to provide information to those who might be interested.
Please note that we are not physicians and do not provide medical advice. Rather, our intention is to inform readers of this condition by describing our own experiences, and to provide links and literature references for further information.
We hope that you find it interesting and informative. If you have comments about our site, we would love to hear from you!
Thanks for visiting!
