It is uncertain whether the efforts made by modern woman to break away from her traditional position in the couple and in society will be crowned with success. The gynaecologist does not fail to consider in his field that woman's protest, on the one hand, and her affirmation, on the other hand, influence her genital physiology. Her inability to adapt herself may manifest itself in relatively specific disorders, whereas, on the contrary, her equilibrium will guarantee the harmonious functioning of her organs. This equilibrium is conditioned by a profound sense of her identity, based on a perfect integration of her body and her affective potential. If this sense is developed, she will approach the world around her with more or even unlimited security. The author has carefully examined a certain number of gynaecological situations and observed how the patient at one with herself is able to integrate her sex. This feeling of harmony provides an obstacle to the conviction of being at the mercy of a sort of evolutional fate from puberty to menopause. Even when her ailing body no longer corresponds to the definitions of health she adopts an attitude which shows that she accepts herself in all her femininity.
