There is a popular saying that menstruation is a way for women to detoxify, and the uterus has become the organ for women to detoxify. Even many TCM experts spread this view. Is that really the case?
If menstruation is really a form of detoxification, then menstrual blood becomes unclean and the metabolite of toxins in the body. Many women find the timing of menstruation very bad. This kind of wrong cognition will make women disgust menstruation. They are often in menstruation, showing inferiority, self-confidence and other negative emotions.
In fact, this is totally wrong! The reason is that we lack the most basic education and understanding of female reproductive health. Let's take a look at what the Germans think about menstruation when they have sex education during adolescence.
When a woman is given birth, whether she likes it or not, the first thing you have to do is to accept it. In order to accomplish this mission, women have the uterus, the most important sexual organ. The uterus, as the name suggests, is the palace of children. The palaces are all for the noble prince. So every little life in the future is an extremely noble 'Prince' to the female body.
What is endometrium? Endometrium is like the luxury decoration, rich food, bird's nest, candy and other nutrients in a palace. In order to prepare for the arrival of the prince, we should do our best. So, if the prince doesn't arrive as scheduled this month, what should the body do? Should we keep these nutritious foods and wait for the next arrival of the prince? Of course, it can't. It may go bad next month, and it won't show the dignity of the prince. Therefore, if the body finds that the prince has not arrived this month, it will remove the endometrium that has been carefully prepared for a whole month and replace it with a new one to make a new preparation for the arrival of the prince next month. So month after month, the withdrawal of the endometrium is what we see as menstruation. Therefore, menstruation is also called 'pure luxury' in Germany
Therefore, endometrium itself is rich in protein, vitamins, vitamins, sugar and other nutrients. Only the most nutritious uterine environment can cultivate a fertilized egg from a cell size to a fetus weighing seven or eight Jin within 10 months.
If the uterus is the organ of detoxification, how can the fetus thrive in the highly toxic uterus? No mother's body is so vicious. Even if it is not for the sake of the fetus, if menstruation is detoxification, then the uterus, cervix and vagina are soaked and eroded by the body toxin every month, and the result is unimaginable. This is obviously not in line with common sense.
In western culture, blood represents vitality and strength. Menstrual bleeding is a manifestation of women's health and fertility. Menstruation is a very positive physiological phenomenon with positive energy significance. In Germany, when a girl comes to menstruation for the first time, parents will hold a grand party for her children to congratulate her on finally growing up. This kind of education way, can let the girl understand the menstruation, and gladly accept the menstruation the arrival.
