In addition, there seems to be not only a general lack of
knowledge about the effects of menopause on the sexual
capabilities but, in most women, an underlying fear of
menopause. As a consequence of such attitudes and ignorance of the subject, there is the feeling that once menopause
is reached a woman's sex life dwindles rapidly. Nothing could
be further from the truth. This conviction is supported by
my personal observations, and further fortified by the
research done by William Masters, M.D., and Virginia
Johnson on the treatment of sexual dysfunction, reported in
their recent book, Human Sexual Inadequacy.

Whereas an attempt to detoxicate the expectant mother
should be considered through proper
and bowel elimination, and proper bed rest and quiet, the
orthodox procedure consists of administration of sedative
drugs or drugs that inhibit the thyroid. Thalidomide once
headed this list. When it was ingested, all the disagreeable
symptoms of early pregnancy disappeared. Its action was so
miraculous that, by word of mouth, without advertising or
ballyhoo, it became the favorite pacifier of pregnant mothers.
But it was not long before its hideous disfiguring aftereffects
were seen.
The reason for the resulting deformation of babies from its
use became plain. During pregnancy, a hormone is needed to
facilitate the rapid growth and multiplication of cells of the
growing embryo. This hormone comes from the thyroid

ABORTION AND
MISCARRIAGE
For many years there were two terms that were hardly
mentioned in polite society: "abortion" and "venereal
disease." Both connoted shame.
When I was a freshman university student, I was disturbed
by a lecture on venereal disease and its horrors. I remember
that one student in the audience fainted. And it was also only
recently that the word "abortion" became admitted to polite

performed after the first missed period and no later than the

steps in and performs the operation.

moral and social offense that penitentiary sentences were

any other venereal disease in the first place, but were plagued
by toxic secretions which so often masquerade as a venereal
disease. These secretions, in the prostate of the male and the
womb in the female, and eliminated through the male's penis
and the female's vagina, are the result not of V.D. but of
general body toxemia due to overindulgence in improper
food habits.
Franz Schubert wrote a song about a young couple who,
while walking along the beach, stopped in an empty
fisherman's hut. Their talk was serious. The man had decided
to part with the woman. She was crying, and as her tears
dropped upon his hands he eagerly licked them only to be
poisoned by the tears.
A case from my files, which well illustrates toxic sexual
secretions and orgasms, is somewhat similar. My male patient,
46 years of age, gave the following history. His past life had
been healthy, physically and sexually. In June 1970, he

Because it is so insidious, granuloma inguinale is especially
dangerous. The manifestations are painless, encouraging its
victims to procrastinate about treatment until the condition
is far advanced. Also, as much as three months may elapse
between exposure and the first sign of infection, by which
time the original carrier would have infected others.
Lymphogranuloma venereum (L.G.U.) is another venereal
disease that, while obscure, is very dangerous. Approximately
three weeks after exposure, a lump appears on the sexual
organs. Two weeks later another lump, the size of an egg,
appears in the groin. L.G.U. is different from all other
venereal diseases in that it is the only one caused by a virus.

The play concerns the life and fate of Oedipus, the son of
royal parents. As an infant, he was abandoned to die because
of a prophecy that the king, his father, would be killed by
the hand of the son. Oedipus, however, was rescued and
brought up by foster parents whom he believed to be his
own. Later, as a young man, he received a prophecy from an
oracle that he was destined to kill his father and marry his
mother. Petrified, he decided to escape his fate by leaving
what he believed to be his home. On the journey Oedipus
encountered a stranger, an older man, who provoked a fight.

went through a state of shock and grief so intense that she
came close to having a nervous breakdown. He had been the

him. Now, she was totally unequipped to cope with even the
smallest problems.
She had two subsequent love affairs with men, one who
was twenty and the other thirty years her senior. Both
proved to be unsatisfactory, as she was still frigid.

She said she felt like a hamster in a cage, running about in a

eat compulsively; she had gained sixty pounds in two years.
