Menstrual problems
Menstrual problems are complaints around the menstrual period – such as period pains or an irregular cycle. They have many possible causes and belong, with a stronger expression, to be clarified gynaecologically. At the Kyborg Institute we consider the theme additionally on a soul-related level – expressly as a personal, worldview-based view and without attribution of blame.
Our sensitive reading
In our reading, period complaints can have to do with tension or an unrelaxed relationship to one’s own body. A loving, accepting handling of oneself does good. That is a sensitive observation – expressly no claim about causes and no “self to blame”. No one “causes themselves” period pains through wrong thoughts.
Important: have it clarified gynaecologically
Severe, newly appearing or persistent period pains, very irregular cycles or heavy bleeding belong to be clarified gynaecologically – treatable causes can lie behind them (e.g. endometriosis). There are effective treatments. Warmth, rest and relaxation can do good as a supplement, but replace no clarification.
What does that mean in practice?
- With severe/persistent complaints, have it clarified by a gynaecologist.
- Use warmth, movement and relaxation as a supplement.
- Understand the soul-related view as a suggestion, not as a method.
