In the past, cultural views molded the mechanism of human bodies.
Metaphors revolving the analogous structures of the male and female bodies played a dominant role in classical medicine throughout the 19th century.
Assertions that men and women's social roles were natural emerged later on.
Evolutions of the metaphors used to describe women throughout the history changed from having analogous systems as men, to being complete different and even looked down upon by men.
How do men and women in contemporary society view such historical metaphors today?

Many respondents reported their knowledge increased after they entered Thailand.
The access to sexual health information or contraception is uncommon in Burma.
The local understanding of pregnancies.
Regular menstruation is an important indicator of health for Burmese women.
The absence of regular periods does not always indicate a pregnancy is but associated with weakness and potential sign of more serious ill health.
For Burmese women
a cessation menstruation can be interpreted as the blood congealing inside the body which may rise to the head and cause serious illness and mental disturbance.
The ambiguity surrounding early pregnancy and menstrual regulation allows multiple interpretations of the meanings missed menstruation and actions to restore it.
