Every woman who is preparing to become a mother, it is important to feel the care and attention of a loved one. The gentle and quivering attitude of a man evokes a pleasant feeling of self-worth. There are cases when all the feelings and worries of a woman are felt by her husband.

What is Kuwad Syndrome?

This syndrome is a combination of psychosomatic disorders of future young fathers. The basis of the syndrome of false pregnancy in the stronger sex is fear and anxiety for the beloved woman and the unborn child. They are sick most often young men who have not reached the age of thirty and are preparing to become fathers for the first time.

There are cases when the Kuwad syndrome occurs in representatives of the male already having a baby. At risk are also nervous and unbalanced men with hysterical disposition. They can easily succumb to a panicky mood and have difficulty controlling their behavior in difficult situations.

History of occurrence

Syndrome Kuvad men have been observed for several centuries. Its name, translated from the French language, sounds like "hatching chicks". In the distant past, it was possible to observe certain ritual actions of some peoples. In those moments when the child was born, the man imitated the birth of his wife. He went to bed, did not eat anything, and repeated all the movements of the body and groans for the woman.

It was believed that in this way he can transfer some of the pain experienced by the spouse in the process of birth, on his shoulders, and also help her to safely produce a baby. In some primitive cultures, "kuvad" means the procedure of causing pain to the male representative during the course of the birth of his beloved woman.

Causes

Men who grow up in families where the father did not play a major role in the family are more likely to be receptive. A mother can educate a boy as her reflection, because otherwise she simply can not. This also applies to single-parent families, where the woman decides everything herself, she does not have a man's shoulder to lean on.

If in a pair the representative of the male is endowed with infantilism, and in the woman the leadership qualities prevail, then most often the sons develop regeneration and modification of the masculine qualities. To the opinion of the father in such families do not listen and do not attach importance to it. Becoming teenagers, sons can identify themselves with mothers, women. They choose women, taking into account the advice of their mothers. And in their families they are rarely leaders. Therefore, during the months of the pregnancy of their second half, men who have received such upbringing can experience all the physical and emotional experiences of their beloved woman.

Symptoms of false pregnancy in men

Representatives of the male can feel bloating, pain in the lumbar region, a decrease or loss of appetite, constant nausea and other symptoms that brings Kuwad's syndrome. Signs of manifestation of imaginary pregnancy are also expressed in a changeable mood, insomnia, the presence of fear, excitement and irritability. Indifference to everything around him is a characteristic symptom of Kuwad's syndrome.

Signs of this disease in each male are manifested in different ways. The degree of their expression can be completely individual. Sometimes men who suffer from this syndrome become much more whimsical than pregnant women. Sometimes the symptoms of this disease can erroneously indicate a malfunction in the work of the gastrointestinal tract, appendicitis and diseases of internal organs.

Men during the course of pregnancy of their second half begin to experience their sensations, experience and suffer as beloved women. They really get sick and do not come up with anything. Kuvad syndrome is a certain form of neurosis, based on fear for a beloved spouse, a future child and a sense of guilt before the other half for the pains caused.

Variations of the course of the disease

There are several variants of the course of this disease. The progression of symptoms is often exacerbated by the end of the gestation period, closer to the time of onset of labor. There are times when men feel their presence during the entire period of the woman's pregnancy. Usually they disappear at the onset of labor, but there are exceptions, when symptoms disappear only after the second half has complications after childbirth. Some male representatives may be exposed to Kuwad syndrome even before the onset of a wife's pregnancy, during her menstrual cycle. At this time, they can experience the same feeling of abdominal pain, discomfort in the lower back, like women.

According to studies conducted in America, Kuvad syndrome or a male pregnancy can overtake every ninth male. At 40% of representatives of stronger sex this disease proceeds easily enough. In the months of pregnancy of the second half, they may have disruptions in the digestive tract and weak pain in certain areas. It is scientifically proven that this syndrome is most pronounced during the third and ninth months of pregnancy.

Imaginary pregnancy in women

Syndrome Kuvad in women is extremely rare. Sometimes a representative of the weaker sex may think that she is expecting a child, but in fact, the presence of certain symptoms is not related to pregnancy. The cause of the occurrence of a false pregnancy in women is not fully understood. The test for an imaginary pregnancy always shows a negative result.

Nowadays, experts tend to believe that this disease is based more on psychological factors. If the fair sex can not have children or they have miscarriages, they are approaching menopause or are simply in search of their second half, this can lead to the symptoms of an imaginary pregnancy. They may have malfunctions of the menstrual cycle, pain in the chest and other symptoms. These manifestations can be felt by a woman of a week or even months.

• Men should not dive into their problems, they should be told about them to their close people.
