On Painful Menstruation: The Harveian Lectures, 1890 is a book written by Francis Henry Champneys and published in 1891. The book is a collection of lectures delivered by Champneys at the Royal College of Physicians in London in 1890. The lectures focus on the topic of painful menstruation, also known as dysmenorrhea, and provide a comprehensive overview of the causes, symptoms, and treatment of this condition.Champneys begins by discussing the normal physiology of menstruation before delving into the various types of dysmenorrhea and their underlying causes. He explores the role of the nervous system, the uterus, and other organs in the development of painful menstruation. The book also covers the psychological aspects of dysmenorrhea, including the impact it can have on a woman's mental health.Throughout the book, Champneys presents a range of treatment options for dysmenorrhea, including both medical and non-medical approaches. He discusses the use of painkillers, hormonal therapies, and surgical interventions, as well as lifestyle changes such as exercise and dietary modifications.On Painful Menstruation is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of women's health or the treatment of dysmenorrhea. Champneys' lectures provide a fascinating glimpse into the medical knowledge and practices of the late 19th century, while also offering insights that are still relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
