Sportmedizin: Wie zyklusbasiertes Training funktioniert
Trainingspläne im Sport basieren häufig auf Studien mit Männern. Die sind aber nur zum Teil auf Frauen anwendbar. Viele Athletinnen trainieren inzwischen nach ihrem Menstruationszyklus. Von E. Burkhart und E. Theodoropoulos.
The headline is pretty gay, but good grief is the content depressing and condescending. "Sure, there might be a war going on, but cheer yourself up with a menstrual pad!" #vintageAd#menstruation
Boiling my new #divaCup as instructed before using it for the first time... Wish me luck 😬 (if I can actually use this to replace the expense, waste and mess of disposable #menstruation pads and tampons, and with more reliable protection against leaks than so called " #periodUnderwear " then that would be amazing!!)
11KM: Warum Menstruation nicht nur ein Frauenthema ist
Menstruation betrifft die Hälfte der Weltbevölkerung direkt - der Mangel an Wissen darüber weit mehr Menschen. 11KM lüftet am Internationalen Frauentag die "Geheimnisse" rund um den weiblichen Zyklus und räumt mit alten Mythen auf.
#PeriodPoverty—lack of access to resources & education linked to #MenstrualHealth & hygiene, including essential items like period products, washing facilities & proper waste management—is a pressing concern in #India. It can be traced back to #patriarchal notions that label #menstruation as impure/dirty, restricting the freedom of those who menstruate during periods.
Finally remembered to order a Diva cup and will test it out with my next period, since I doubt it'll ship before this one ends. I'm thinking of making a video about my experiences with it. I mean obviously I can't show anything since as we all know, women's health is invariably "sexually explicit porn," but maybe I can at least talk about how hard it was to figure out how to insert, how badly it leaked (hopefully not at all but we'll see), how often I have to empty and clean it, etc. I'm so tired of wasting money and adding to landfills with disposable #menstruation pads and tampons, but I've tried several brands of so-called period underwear and they're all a b* to wash (how am I supposed to air dry in Portland, OR where it trains for half of every year?!) and barely hold half a tampon's worth of blood before leaking anyway, so idk I'd love for a diva cup to work but we'll see.
Would be great if menstrual hygiene products had evolved more in the past thousand years 🤪
Connaissez-vous des applis libres ou des logiciels libres pour le suivi du cycle féminin ? J'ai vu qu'il y a pas mal d'appli mais tout ça m'a l'air pas très libre.
En bonus, si vous utilisez ça, pensez-vous qu'une feuille de calcul (utilisable sur ordiphone) pourrait les remplacer ?
Merci de partager l'info. C'est pour faire un article sérieux sur un site dont un paquet d'habitués sont assez machos.
Merci d'avance. #cycle_féminin#ovulation#règles#menstruation#logiciel_libre
'The decision was taken at last month’s governing body meeting following a request from the students,' the university’s registrar, Dr Rajesh Kumar, told The Telegraph on Wednesday
Women and girls across much of the developing world lack access to menstrual products. This means that for at least a week or so every month, many girls don’t go to school, so they fall behind educationally and often never catch up economically. Alex Odundo found a way to make maxi pads out of sisal, a drought-tolerant agave plant that grows readily in semi-arid climates like his native Kenya. https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/12/a-locally-grown-solution-for-period-poverty/
I wrote a short piece on safe #menstruation tracking apps, expanding on a few tweets I posted at the time #RoevWade was overturned. Incidents of testing women for abortion drugs in the UK prompted me to turn it into an article:
