By discussing the position of bio-conservatism and transhumanism, we question if the women menstrual cycle control would represent a new way toward a more responsive relation with one's own physical and mental health, a choice of freedom from undesired physiological conditions, a medicalization of a natural physiological event or an innovative carrier of social stigma against the women. We argue that the advancement of medical science may allow women a choice if to regulate own menstrual cycle, offering them as well a right to intervene responsibly on their own body and psyche. Accordingly, a post-human society could provide a suitable coexistence between women who claim menstruation as the biological essence and those who claim it as an option.
