Welcome
We all need to know – what happens in the shedding of the unused ‘baby nest’? Even finding info on this is tough online – why? Nutrients – who knew? We need to be clean and clear: for all to work – circulation (CLICK)
Chemistry of menstrual blood (CLICK)
(??$$$??) it is made in all of us – when in balance – no problems with bleeding/losing the monthly baby nest not in use.
How did I find out about it?
Through the ATMAT manual – Dr Rosita Arvigo (CLICK) and graduates/friends.
This as the 2013 edition – ‘the uterine membrane secretes a substance called fibrinolysin, which prevents and breaks up blood clots during menstruation. Lysin means ‘to break apart’. This is an essential function during menstruation, because large heavy clots can block the cervix and not allow the fluids to flow out without intense, painful cramping and twisting of the uterus to expel them. If the uterine membrane is not in top condition, normal secretions of fibrinolysin are diminished. The uterine endometrium produces insufficient amounts of fibrinolysin and blood clots are not broken down as part of the normal sloughing of the uterine lining”.
fibrinolysin –[ fahy-bruh–nol–uh-sin ] is a proteolytic enzyme, formed in the blood from plasminogen, that causes the breakdown of the fibrin in blood clots. (1959 (CLICK) – seems to have gone ‘out of fashion’ (to investigate normal). 2008 (CLICK) – actual process of clot breakdown.
What is fibrinoylsis? In fibrinolysis, a fibrin clot, the product of coagulation, is broken down. Its main enzyme plasmin cuts the fibrin mesh at various places, leading to the production of circulating fragments that are cleared by other proteases or by the kidney and liver.
Having to resort to Wikipedia (CLICK) to find out the answers (knowing what to ask is also helpful). “Fibrinolysis is a process that prevents blood clots from growing and becoming problematic.[1] This process has two types: primary fibrinolysis and secondary fibrinolysis. The primary type is a normal body process, whereas secondary fibrinolysis is the breakdown of clots due to a medicine, a medical disorder, or some other cause.[1]
‘In fibrinolysis, a fibrin clot, the product of coagulation, is broken down.[2] Its main enzyme plasmin cuts the fibrin mesh at various places, leading to the production of circulating fragments that are cleared by other proteases or by the kidney and liver”.
Rather than trying to micromanage – we could simply return to normal – hemodynamics and homeostasis.
(5 systems of flow)
- Beginning – periods – should not hurt. Ann Marie – page here
- 2.25 – Fibrinolysin
- Stuck Liver Qi (CLICK)? fueling everyone – Head circulation, structural issues, digestive, emotional – and gyne. All called ‘women’s troubles’ – add in the breasts also. Eventually women’s cancers.
- 5.20 ish – I historically straightened out periods (1970’s).
In the recent session – Julienne said ‘but it thins the blood’ – (speaking of castor oil (CLICK)) – first I had heard of it.
Sounds very TCM and panicked may cause trouble – to my woman’s ears – women have ALWAYS (CLICK) used castor oil (CLICK). If it were a problem – there would be a rider/warning.
