Choroby kobiet i sposoby ich leczenia na podstawie traktatu Metrodory z Bizancjum
Women’s diseases and methods of treatments based on the treatise of Metrodora of Byzantium
The treatise „Women’s diseases” is one of the few medieval medical works written by a woman. This short work written in Greek by Metrodora is probably the oldest text preserved to modern times, in which the author – woman speaks about women’s diseases.
There is a few information about Metrodora. We do not know exactly when and where she lived, if Metrodora was her real name or only pseudonym and what happened with her original manuscript. We can only suppose that she lived in 6th century in Byzantine Empire and that she worked there as a midwife. She probably was not a Christian because in her treatise there is not any information about this religion.
The recipes contained in Metrodora’s treatise show us with what kind of healthy problems the women went to her and how she tried to help them. In her recipes we can find a lot of plants and minerals and this show us that she had a deep medical knowledge.
