About the Course
The aim of this half-day workshop is to give you an understanding of the challenges women face throughout their reproductive lives and how SFH will benefit them.
During the workshop, we will cover a brief difference between the male and female brain, take a look at the Menstrual Cycle giving foundation knowledge to help practitioners to understand how hormonal changes affect women and how helping women to reduce stress and anxiety regains control over their bodies.
With 1 in 5 women experiencing anxiety and depression and more than twice as many women than men experiencing in the UK having a Common Mental Health issue, the reason is believed to be due to the hormonal changes women experience throughout their reproductive lives.
This CPD explains the various events including PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome) PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) low libido and sexual dysfunction, common Gynaecological issues such as endometriosis, anxiety, and depression relating to pregnancy and pregnancy loss, contraceptives, and their effect on the brain.
