A gynecologist in a practice for functional medicine?
Dr. Sorina Kunert - gynecologist and doctor of holistic medicine for women.
On the gynecological background of Dr. Kunert
Dr. Sorina Kunert is already practicing gynecology in Berlin and Potsdam with over 25 years of experience as a specialist, 20 years of which with her own practice.
Through her classical training as a gynecologist (in German quite literally translated as "doctor for women") and her work in the practice, her patients' ailments and questions have always been characterized by a holistic approach that few specialties possess. Dr. Kunert became increasingly interested in the fundamental questions of how the female body functions, both in the smallest and in the largest sense. It is a sensitive organism in which everything is interrelated and a whole orchestra of hormones play a central role in its regulationThe process of pregnancy, menstruation, menopause, but also the emergence of a new life with the imprinting of the embryo in the womb represents the entire life cycle that a human being goes through.
With this holistic view of the human being, the gynecologist Dr. Kunert quite logically became a doctor for women.
What approach do we use to combine gynecology with functional medicine?
Everything is connected with each other. For example, if menstruation stops or we are unable to have children, this is often a natural alarm signal from the body. Here, for various reasons, the body feels unable to ensure the growth of a healthy child or the health of the expectant mother. This is quite normal and reasonable. However, the question now is: why does the body evaluate the situation in this way? why bewertet der Körper die Situation so?
In line with the approach of functional medicine, the cause must be investigated. The question of Why. This involves many topics, such as hormones, stress, epigenetics, diet, Environmental medicine, fatigue, diabetes, because one cause can produce several symptoms. Likewise, one symptom can come from an interaction of multiple causes. The conditions are as diverse and individual as the woman herself. We have internalized this individuality and made it a central part of our gynecology because we owe it to our patients.
