Narrative: Low back pain and female reproductive problems are the source of frequent consultations to a Chiropractor. Menorrhagia, described as excessive uterine bleeding, yearly affects up to 10 million American women in their forties and fifties.
This patient indicated that her menstrual cycle had never been ‘normal’, and since the age of 16 her cycles were of 36-45 days duration with bleeding lasting about seven days. On her heaviest days of bleeding, days 2 and 3, she had to use a super plus tampon every 1 – 1½ hours.
The patient was treated with SOT blocking, instrument adjusting, Von Rumpt cranial technique, and Spondylotherapy. She continues care for other matters and but has had no menstrual or bleeding complaints throughout this time.
