Can I do moxibustion on my lower abdomen during my period?

Can I do moxibustion on the abdomen during menstruation? This is a question that many women are concerned about in daily life. The most important reason is that if you do moxibustion on the abdomen during menstruation, it is very easy to get hurt. Some women may even have abnormal menstruation. Therefore, in order for the menstruation to come normally, it is recommended to pay more attention to it in daily life and do moxibustion in accordance with your actual situation as much as possible. So, can moxibustion be performed during menstruation?

Generally speaking, it is not recommended to do moxa treatment on the abdomen during menstruation. The main reason is that if you do moxa treatment on the abdomen during menstruation, it may cause discomfort and increase the menstrual flow. Therefore, it is best not to do moxa treatment on the abdomen during menstruation.

But this certainly does not mean that moxibustion cannot be performed during the menstrual period, because some women already have menstrual irregularities during the menstrual period. The main reason for irregular menstruation is that the human body is too cold. At this time, moxibustion is a more effective thing to do. However, moxibustion on the abdomen does have certain risks for women during menstruation. Therefore, it is best to consult a professional before moxibustion on the abdomen and perform moxibustion under the guidance of a doctor, which can help reduce the impact of discomfort.

Except for the abdomen during menstruation, you don't need to worry too much about moxibustion on other parts of the body, because the pain caused by some solid injuries can still be treated with moxibustion during menstruation.

Finally, I hope everyone can understand that although moxibustion is a very good health-preserving acupuncture therapy method, there are still many things that need to be paid attention to in daily life. It is recommended to learn and master it well in daily life, and do not affect your health due to improper moxibustion. In addition, if everyone is still unfamiliar with moxibustion, it is best not to perform moxibustion casually, so as not to cause menstrual abnormalities due to momentary carelessness. For some women who have already developed discomfort symptoms, it is recommended to seek medical consultation to reduce the damage.
