description

The article highlights how much humidity is constitutive of female physiology found in the gynecological works of Hippocrates and among Aristotelian biological thought, and shows the connections of this topic with other works of Hippocrates, as Victus and De aere. This female humidity, although ideologically constructed, is socially and politically indispensable, so that the complex therapy tends to the restoration of its right amount.
