Can I smell moxibustion when I am pregnant?

After pregnancy, women become more sensitive to certain smells due to endocrine changes. This is a normal physiological change and there is no need to worry. It is not recommended for pregnant women to perform moxibustion during pregnancy because it is easy to cause miscarriage. If you simply smell the smell of moxibustion, it generally will not affect your body, but if the smell is obvious, it is best to avoid it.

The main effect of mugwort is to warm the meridians and dispel cold. Generally speaking, its smoke does not have a big impact on pregnant women. Depending on the situation, pregnant women generally do not need to smell this kind of smoke frequently, and it does not provide any special help to pregnant women, but occasionally, there will be no major impact.

Pregnant women can smell the smell of moxibustion, but of course they cannot smell it often. Moreover, pregnant women must use good moxa sticks with guaranteed quality. The smoke from the burning of adulterated moxa sticks on the market is harmful to pregnant women. Therefore, there is no need to advise pregnant mothers not to use moxibustion. The key is to try their best to avoid the smoke of fake moxa sticks.

The smoke from high-quality moxa sticks has a stabilizing effect on pregnancy

The moxa smoke produced when high-quality moxa sticks are burned has no harm to pregnant women, and can also help to stabilize the fetus. The moxa smoke can also purify the air and kill and inhibit bacteria. Scientific experiments have proved that moxa smoke has a killing and inhibitory effect on pneumococcus, influenza bacillus, Escherichia coli, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, etc. The smoke from burning mugwort can kill up to 70% of the bacteria in the air.

What pregnant mothers should remember is that they cannot stay in moxa smoke for a long time just because it has certain benefits. This is because moxa smoke contains both substances that are beneficial to the human body and ingredients that may have adverse effects on the human body if exposed to it for a long time. Therefore, you should avoid smelling the smell of moxa for a long time.
