Can I do moxibustion on my navel during my period?

Women will have menstruation when they reach a certain age. It is a normal physiological phenomenon, but menstruation itself is a very inconvenient thing, because women have many things to pay attention to when they have menstruation. Women should not only pay attention to their diet, but also be careful not to exercise too much, otherwise it will cause menstrual disorders and cause great harm to women's health. Of course, there are more things that women need to pay attention to during menstruation. In fact, women should also be careful not to have sex or perform moxibustion.

There are many things that girls need to pay attention to when they have their menstrual period, and not using moxa is one of them. As we all know, mugwort is a purely yang plant, and moxa has a certain effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Therefore, if people use moxa during their menstrual period, it is very easy to cause internal bleeding, which will cause great harm to people's physical and mental health. In severe cases, it may even cause anemia and hemorrhagic shock in women.

Of course, if a woman has a cold body, less menstrual flow, and often suffers from uterine cold and menstrual pain, then there will be no problem with moderate moxibustion. There is no need to worry. In fact, for people with uterine cold, moderate moxibustion is beneficial to human health and can help solve the problem of irregular menstruation. However, for people with uterine heat, it is best not to use moxibustion, otherwise it will cause internal bleeding, which is very inconvenient.

It does not mean that women cannot do moxibustion during their menstruation. It depends on the woman's physical condition. If a woman has a cold uterus, then there is no problem with moxibustion, because moxibustion has a certain effect of dispelling cold, and it also has a certain effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, which can help solve the menstrual pain caused by cold uterus. However, if a woman has a hot uterus and her menstrual flow is very heavy, it is best not to do moxibustion, otherwise it will cause great harm to her health.
