  • Traversing the Ridge: Connecting Menstrual Research and Advocacy
    23rd Biennial Conference of the Society for Menstrual Cycle Research Traversing the Ridge: Connecting Menstrual Research and Advocacy Colorado Springs, CO June 6 - 8, 2019 Full Conference Schedule & Abstracts: Thursday 6th June 2:00 pm Bemis Lounge Registrations Opens 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm Tutt Science Bldg (TSB) Concurrent Workshop (CW) Sessions #1 CW 1.1: How to Teach Cervical Mucus in Menstrual Health Education TSB Rm. 218 Lisa Leger, Justisse College International, Canada Sexual health education teaches about menstruation, contraception, and STI’s, but usually lacks a coherent strategy for teaching about cervical mucus and other symptoms that the cycling body experiences. This session is intended as training on how to teach about the meaning and usefulness of cervical mucus observations so your clients get a more full picture about what occurs in the female body and how to interpret their observations. Justisse Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioners will explain how to talk about vaginal fluids to reassure clients that it is something normal, healthy, and actually useful to be aware of. This session will review how to handle questions about what clients see in their underwear or on the toilet tissue and the pros and cons of internal checks. You will learn how to field such questions and use them as teachable moments to elaborate on how Fertility Awareness Methods work, the benefits of being aware of cycles, and how such observations can be used as a health record and diagnostic tool. Learn how to explain the ways in which cervical mucus differs from vaginal cell slough, yeast infection, Bacterial Vaginosis, or arousal fluid.
