MAIN AIM:
Addressed to scientists, health and social workers, but open to all people concerned in observing and interpreting the menstrual cycle and the luteal phase.
CONTENTS:
This seminar explores the physiology of the four phases of the menstrual cycle –focusing on the luteal phase – with the help of insights derived by Medulla’s research, an original comparative approach that is based on novel understanding of natural cycles applied to female physiology, their biomarkers and their relationship with hormones, lifestyle and social environment.
Medulla integrates comparative cycle studies, chronobiology and the German Sensiplan®, the scientific method for fertility awareness and early detection of hormonal imbalance.
Medulla frames menstrual health and related dis-ease as a healthy and shrewd process
for personal blooming, alert and protection against germs, poor decisions, toxic individuals and dead-ends.
OUTCOMES:
1. Improve treatment options and outcomes of premenstrual disorders, by taking
action nearer to the root cause with more insightful tools, roadmaps, frameworks for
(self)care practices, awareness, and self-observation routines.
2. Body literacy and understanding will be strengthened.
3. Recognize a common biological blueprint which, in itself, can explain, inform and
influence the understanding and treatment of (pre)menstrual dis-ease.
4. Frame and analyze the signs and symptoms of the menstrual cycle by comparison
with other cycles in their own body (regardless of sex), natural world, cognitive
processes, archetypes.
5. Gather insights into the potential of body literacy and fem-tech for women’s health.
6. Stimulate imagination, wisdom, problem-solving and compassion in the practitioner.
TOPICS:
- the menstrual cycle beyond reproduction. Four phases in one vital sign: a reporting process and navigation tool for blooming
- the intrinsic value and characteristics of phase 4: luteal phase
- premenstrual syndrome and premenstrual dysphoric disorder – symptoms and recording techniques
- root causes of premenstrual symptoms
- tools and techniques for self-awareness, interpreting and transforming symptoms
METHODOLOGY: 65% lecture with Power Point, hand drawings and videos, 30% Q&A and plenary discussion, 5% practical exercise
LANGUAGE: English, with informal support in Italian, German, Spanish and French if needed.

FRIENDS AND HOSTS:
This seminar is brought to you at an accessible price thanks to the time, space and
creativity of four Italian women and two associations.
– SALUTARE e.V. is the association for the promotion of mental health of the Italian
community in Germany. It works with patients, clinicians and active citizens in Italian, German and English. It was founded in Berlin in 2013 by a group of clinicians and migration experts to respond to the growing demand for information, network and training.
You can become member of Salutare e.V. @ the seminar.
– TRIXIEWIZ e. V. is a non-profit organization that transfers knowledge across cultures.
Particular importance is placed on critical dialogues involving politics, science, and the
diversity of cultures. It has been in operation in Berlin since 2003. Through political,
