Zyklusstellungen

Zyklusstellungen, a term originating from German, refers to the concept of positions or postures within the context of a woman's menstrual cycle. It is often discussed in relation to sexual practices, suggesting that certain sexual positions may be more comfortable, pleasurable, or even beneficial during different phases of the menstrual cycle. The underlying idea is that hormonal fluctuations and physical changes experienced throughout the cycle can influence a woman's body and her subjective experience of sexual intimacy.

Proponents suggest that awareness of zyklusstellungen can lead to enhanced sexual satisfaction and a deeper connection with one's own body. For example, some theories propose that during ovulation, when estrogen levels are high, a woman might be more open to certain positions due to increased lubrication and libido. Conversely, during menstruation, when comfort might be a priority, different positions might be preferred. These ideas are largely anecdotal and are not supported by extensive scientific research, though they stem from observations of physiological and psychological changes associated with the menstrual cycle. The term encourages a mindful approach to sexuality, allowing individuals and couples to explore and adapt their practices based on the natural rhythms of a woman's body.
