Female Reproductive System: Menstruation
with Herbalists Matthew Wood, MS; Phyllis D. Light, MA; & Lise Wolff, RH (AHG), MSc
Beginning with menarche, but not including menopause, we cover the vast subject of the monthly period, including issues of ovulation, PMS, PCOS, the period, pains and cramps, short and long cycles, blood loss, anemia, endometriosis, and ovarian cysts, and differential symptoms based on the type, quantity, and time of bleeding.

Everyone interested in this subject must catch this assemblage of three highly experienced herbalists with over 100 years of clinical experience between them.
This class covers the topics of menarche, menstruation, pregnancy, lactation, menopause, and everything in-between (except fertility--handled in another class), but it will do so from several different perspectives. It goes without saying that three herbalists will have three perspectives, but beyond that, we are referring to (1) analysis in terms of hormones, (2) analysis in terms of tissues (ligaments, mucosa, muscles, pelvic floor, etc.), and (3) the relationship between the immune system, sympathetic and reproductive function. Female reproductive cancers will largely not be discussed here.
"I know I will learn a lot myself and can hardly wait for these classes."
