A growing number of women facing chronic reproductive health issues like PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, and infertility may find healing through emotional and psychological care, according to Dubai-based psychologist and wellness expert Sarmistha Mitra.
In her book Whispers of the Womb, Mitra explores how unprocessed emotions, stress, and generational trauma can manifest as physical conditions. She views the womb not just as a reproductive organ but as an emotional archive carrying inherited grief, shame, and unresolved pain.
Mitra believes that many gynecological conditions are not just medical problems but signals of deeper emotional imbalances. Her therapy work has shown that addressing emotional wounds—especially around self-worth, feminine identity, and ancestral trauma—can support the body’s natural healing processes. In one case, a woman conceived naturally after emotional healing work during infertility treatment.
The book emphasizes practical tools like mindfulness, self-acceptance, and rituals to reconnect with feminine energy. Mitra links modern health challenges to the psychological strain women face from competing societal expectations, which can lead to hormonal imbalances, nervous system dysregulation, burnout, and fertility struggles.
Her message is clear: restoring emotional safety and embracing one’s true identity may be essential to lasting physical health and balance.
