What is the reason for a woman's cold stomach?

Women's bodies are very susceptible to cold, especially for those whose qi and blood are not sufficient. If they catch cold, it will easily lead to problems such as rheumatoid arthritis and uterine cold. Especially in colder seasons, female friends must pay attention to keeping their bodies warm, because most women will feel cold feet in this season. But why does a woman often feel cold in the stomach?

Upper abdomen - stomach cold

Women are nourished by blood, which is transformed from food “digested” by the spleen and stomach. Digestive enzymes are very sensitive to temperature. When the temperature of the abdominal cavity is low, the enzymes will stop working. Without the efficient action of enzymes, food is difficult to transform. Many women are often confused: they eat a lot and eat well but they don’t feel any benefit. This is exactly the case!

Without the temperature in the abdomen, the small intestine's conversion capacity is low, and food cannot be converted into blood to nourish the internal organs. Energy accumulates to form toxins in the body, and naturally problems such as "yellow face", dark circles under the eyes, pigmentation, and obesity appear. Women, the most expensive supplements you take are not as effective as a single dose of abdominal warming.

Lower abdomen - uterine cold

"Nine out of ten women have cold body temperature." Women with gynecological diseases usually have a lower temperature in their lower abdomen.

There are many important meridians passing through the abdomen, such as the spleen and stomach meridians, liver and kidney meridians. The Ren, Chong and Du meridians originate in the abdominal cavity. The blood in the abdominal cavity and pelvic cavity accounts for about 70% of the human body's blood flow. Women's abdominal temperature is low, and the qi and blood in the abdominal meridians are stagnant. The blood flow rate will be slower, and the speed of toxin clearance will naturally slow down. The accumulation of toxins becomes the biggest harm to women's bodies.

The uterus is the place where life is nurtured. If toxins accumulate for a long time and cannot be metabolized, it will be like a barren wilderness full of garbage. Not only will it be difficult to get pregnant, but even if you do get pregnant, the child will be prone to illness. In addition, the rectum and colon are also in the pelvic cavity, and blood stasis can cause stubborn constipation.

What should women do if their abdomen is cold? Here are three methods to warm up women's abdomen:

1. Moxibustion

Moxibustion is very effective for people with cold constitution. Mugwort is a purely yang plant. When used for moxibustion, it warms the body and replenishes yang energy, expelling cold air from the body. Moxibustion is particularly suitable for modern people to maintain health and regulate sub-health. In addition to relieving menstrual pain, it can also slowly solve the problem of cold hands and feet. It has extraordinary significance for future marriage and childbirth, and even physical health in middle and old age.

Moxibustion points for cold uterus: Guanyuan point, Shenque point, Qihai point, Mingmen point

Guanyuan point is three inches below the navel. Moxibustion on Guanyuan point can enhance the body's yang energy and replenish deficiency and benefit loss. It is more effective for symptoms such as insufficient Yang Qi, physical weakness and fear of cold, and has the effect of nourishing the essence and strengthening the foundation, and replenishing the lower part of the body.

Also known as Shenque Point, it is an important acupoint on the Ren Meridian of the human body. When the body's Qi, blood, Yin and Yang are out of balance and disease occurs, stimulating or applying medicine to the Shenque point can adjust the balance of Yin and Yang. Moxibustion on the navel treats uterine cold.

The Qihai point is located in the lower abdomen of the human body. A straight line connects the navel and the top of the pubic bone, dividing it into ten equal parts, starting from the 3/10 position of the navel. Moxibustion on this point can prevent and treat irregular menstruation, metrorrhagia and infertility.

The Mingmen point is located between the spinous processes of the second and third lumbar vertebrae, and there are also the Shenshu points on both sides, 3 cm away from the midline of the back. Moxibustion at the Mingmen acupoint can strengthen the kidneys and consolidate the body, and treat female menstrual disorders and habitual abortion due to deficiency and cold.

2. Bellyband and warm baby

We see that many Japanese and Koreans wear less in winter, but their complexion is obviously better than ours. The secret lies in belly bands and hot packs. As long as you wear a bellyband to warm your abdomen, your whole body will be warm. When it is very cold, stick a heat pack on your abdomen and lower back, which is equivalent to applying a hot compress to your abdomen at any time. The bellyband can be made of moxa, which is made by making the moxa made from beaten mugwort leaves into an inner core and putting it into the bellyband cloth cover. Wearing a moxa bellyband often can warm the meridians and dispel cold, and improve stomach discomfort.

3. Perineum fumigation to protect pelvic temperature

In daily life, many people always hold their urine and feces. Holding urine causes the vaginal muscles between the vagina and bladder to be pulled toward the bladder, while holding feces causes the vaginal muscles between the vagina and rectum to be pulled toward the rectum. Over time, it will cause the vagina to relax. If the abdominal temperature is low, it will cause blood stasis. Over time, it will affect the transmission of vaginal nerves during couples' life. In this way, the pelvic nerves cannot be transmitted to the vestibular nerves, which will also lead to sexual indifference. In short, it is no exaggeration to say that abdominal temperature determines sexual happiness.
