Can you use hot salt to warm your abdomen during your period?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Using coarse salt for hot compresses is a beneficial and harmless green therapy. It can be applied during the menstrual period and is also helpful for menstrual cramps. However, if menstrual bleeding is excessive, it is best to discontinue use. It is also effective as a supplementary treatment for conditions such as pelvic inflammation, fallopian tube adhesion, menstrual cramps, and uterine cold. It is important to combine it with medication for better results.
