It is not always possible to determine the cause of infertility or early miscarriage with the help of medicine and modern equipment. It happens that doctors shrug their shoulders and cannot answer the question of why a woman cannot become pregnant, and if she becomes pregnant, then why does a miscarriage occur. What is the woman forced to do in this case? Look for alternative ways to determine the causes of the absence of pregnancy or early miscarriage and methods of treatment. In this article, you will learn about a method from psychology, thanks to which you can understand at which phase of a woman's reproductive cycle a violation occurs and for what reason.

Dream help in diagnosing the causes of infertility

Institute of Perinatal and Reproductive Psychology (IPRP) - it is here that Galina Grigorievna Filippova * (Doctor of Psychology, Professor, Rector of the Institute) is engaged in research and provides consultations. She has devoted many years to researching the influence of dreams on a woman's reproductive cycle, and now, when working privately with a woman, she can help establish the cause of the absence of pregnancy and solve this problem.

Dream analysis is used as an additional diagnostic tool and nevertheless gives excellent results.

Exactly how dreams help: general information

Many people know that dreams reflect our state: emotional, psychological and physical. Working with dreams, as a tool in the skilled hands of a specialist, is a storehouse of useful information, a resource of new strength, a key to health. Nature has given man, in fact, a free source of information that few people use.

The point is that dreams are not subject to mind control. Drawing information from the unconscious, they carry reliable information about the emotional state of a person, problems at the level of psychosomatics and the physical body. No dream book will tell about such signs of the subconscious, Galina Grigorievna believes, all information about symbols, in particular those talking about violations in the reproductive cycle, is the result of long personal research and other scientific works.

In most cases, the reason for the absence of pregnancy originates in the psyche, then descends into the body and manifests itself in various diseases or symptoms. Even if the problem has already manifested itself as a disease in the body and doctors know about it, you can still successfully work with a psychologist who will help you put your thoughts in order, work out psychotrauma, then the head begins to help the body solve the problem, the disease gradually recedes.

Exactly how dreams help: we take it apart point by point

The female menstrual cycle is divided into phases that have clear physiological manifestations: egg development, ovulation, fertilization, if it happened, then: embryo implantation, pregnancy. All this "kitchen" is reflected in dreams in the same logical sequence as at the physiological level. The analysis of women's dreams in different phases of the menstrual cycle made it possible to determine those dream symbols that indicate the normal state of development of the reproductive system, as well as obtain information about the signs of disorders at one or another phase.

For example, women who are not psychologically ready for pregnancy, although they may not be aware of this, have images of dreams with disorders of a certain kind. Revealing the phase of the menstrual cycle with an irregularity through sleep helps to judge the physiological problem.

From sleep through certain symbols, you can learn:

• how the egg matures
• what is the development of the dominant follicle, are there any deviations
• was there ovulation and what quality was it
• whether fertilization of the egg has happened or not
• whether the egg has passed through the fallopian tube
• whether the implantation was carried out or not
• physiological disorders.

And also the psychological state of a woman at the subconscious level:

• psychological unpreparedness for pregnancy
• fears, complexes, experiences, blocks when thinking about conception.

The plot and images of sleep are analyzed. There may be one plot: for example, scrolling a woman's working day, and the images may not be entirely suitable for the situation, but correctly reflect the psychosomatic state of the dreamer.

What is the scheme of private consultation work?

1. Diagnostics

A woman is asked questions about her life in the family, relationships with a partner, in society, and so on. The psychologist compiles for himself a general picture of problems in the human psyche and his emotional state. Then, as one of the diagnostic methods, the method of interpreting dreams comes into play.

The woman is given homework: from the first day of the menstrual cycle, write down her dreams.

When the dreamer brings a notebook with dreams, the psychologist analyzes the dreams and identifies the phase of the reproductive cycle with disorders, and also determines what exactly the nature of the violation is. “Based on these data, I look at what kind of psychological problem lies at the heart of the disorder: problems in the family, relationships with a partner or parents, maybe the problem comes from the woman's prenatal period, or maybe it is a birth trauma or even a family history,” says Galina Grigorievna.

2. Therapy

Further work continues with diagnosed psychological reasons for the absence of pregnancy. With the help of dreams, the next step is chosen: is it worth continuing to become pregnant naturally or resorting to more advanced treatment technologies. A set of therapeutic actions is also selected through various techniques for working with the subconscious through the body. There are a lot of them, but the only thing you need to understand is which technique is suitable for which situation and will definitely be useful to a woman in solving her problem.

Practical example:

“A woman came to me in connection with the problem of infertility and the recommendation of doctors for IVF. When analyzing dreams, we found specific plots and images during the period of embryo implantation. As a result of the work, a hypothesis appeared that fertilization and implantation of the embryo is highly likely to occur, but then a stressful condition arises, which is associated with fears of pregnancy and changes in relations with the husband after childbirth. As it turned out when using other psychological methods, these fears are not associated with real relationships with the husband, but with family history: in several generations, women in this family in different versions lost their husbands (repression, war, betrayal, premature death, etc.), and were forced to raise their children alone. As a result, a fear of being left without a husband after the birth of a child was formed in the subconscious, which was realized as stress during the period of embryo implantation. We worked with these experiences, which required not only understanding the reasons for the woman's fears, but also her separation (separation) from the family scenario and the formation of confidence in a stable and favorable future. Additionally, work was carried out with the somatic (physiological and bodily) state: improving the condition of the pelvic segment with the help of gymnastics, osteopathy, the use of emotional-figurative techniques, etc. As a result, the desired result was achieved - the woman became pregnant."

Withdrawal of objections

There are people who claim they cannot dream. However, there is a way out. In fact, everyone sees dreams, just not everyone attaches importance to them and, accordingly, does not consider it necessary to memorize even 10% of a dream. However, if you set a clear task for a person, explain to him the importance of the goal, and motivate him correctly, then he will see a dream already on the first night, and then he will bring a notebook completely covered with dreams, and even with detailed details.

Or, conversely, a person sees dreams, but when he was given the task of writing down, he suddenly stopped memorizing them. Blockage by consciousness and / or resistance at the unconscious level has turned on. Then, in this case, it is worth looking at why this is happening and first solving this problem (it may be such that the method of analyzing dreams does not suit him and he must choose an alternative one).

What result can be expected from therapy?

With proper psychological work, a woman's body calms down and stops perceiving thoughts of conception, pregnancy and childbirth as a stressful event. The brain itself chooses the recovery algorithm and gradually adjusts the body to it. And the latter becomes more compliant with regard to the methods of treatment and more willingly "goes" to recovery if the psychological problem has already manifested itself with physical symptoms. And then you can expect a successful conception, good pregnancy and delivery of a healthy baby.
