What is a cold uterus?

According to medicine, one of the causes of infertility is a cold uterus. Put simply, a cold uterus is a state of positive energy that cannot warm the body, the uterine blood vessels constrict, making the uterus lack of blood supply, making it difficult for ovulation and successful conception.

Traditional medicine focuses on the balance of yin and yang (for example, hot and cold). Positive energy is the warmth, heat, and prominence in the latter phase of the menstrual cycle (the second half of the cycle). During the latter phase, positive energy warms the body, helps blood circulation and facilitates ovulation and attachment to the uterine wall. The second phase of the menstrual cycle is the positive phase. After the egg and sperm are conceived, progesterone (positive hormone) causes the body temperature to rise, which helps the fetus to attach to the uterus and develop.

In a cold uterus, the uterine lining does not respond properly to the positive hormone or progesterone. The blood vessels that supply the uterus contract and make the uterus lack of blood supply.

Therefore, if your body lacks positive energy, the blood that feeds the uterus will decrease, causing more dead blood cells to accumulate and prevent another blood flow to the uterus. On the other hand, when the uterus lacks warmth, the follicles cannot fully mature.

Even if an egg follicle can mature, it is likely that an egg will not release without enough positive energy. Therefore, it will be difficult for you to conceive successfully.

When conception occurs, the fetus has about 1 week for the beans to attach to the uterus. This phenomenon will help the fetus connect directly with the blood vessels, providing adequate nutrition for the fetus to develop. This bonding needs to be maintained until the placenta is formed after 3 months. Every uterine abnormality can cause a miscarriage.

When does your body lack positive energy?

You may find yourself lacking positive energy if you experience signs of a cold uterus such as:

The body is often cold (always wearing a jacket, making it difficult to warm the body)

Hands and feet are cold

The basal body temperature is low

Hypothyroidism

Often urinating a lot, especially at night

Poor digestion

Premenstrual bleeding or a blood clot during your period

The latter phase of the short menstrual cycle

Lower back pain (usually at ovulation or during menstruation)

Menstrual cramps, but more pleasant when warmed

Frequent miscarriages

Infertility

Late ovulation

Why women have a cold uterus?

Causes uterine cold from within

1. Drink too many cold drinks

This not only harms the stomach, but can also cause the uterus to become cold. If you eat too much cold food, your uterus becomes affected, causing menstrual cramps, irregular menstrual cycles and it can make it difficult for you to get pregnant.

2. Reduce positive energy

Low temperature destroys the body's positive energy. In addition, cold is also known as negative energy. When this energy accumulates too much, an imbalance occurs and causes positive energy to be much reduced. The end result is that the body or uterus becomes cold, affecting the ability to become pregnant.

Causes uterine cold from the outside

Many people often do not care about the effect of surrounding cold objects on their body, although this can have a significant impact on puberty, the menstrual cycle and fertility . For example:

1. Sit on cold floors often (especially wet floors)

This cold will follow your buttocks to your stomach, especially when you're menstruating or when you're tired.

2. Not paying attention to keep the stomach and back area warm

Many women often wear clothes that reveal their navel and waistline regardless of the weather. Cold wind and humidity can enter the body through the belly button, the back of the waist to reach the uterus. This cold also follows your feet moving to your stomach. According to traditional medicine, channel channels from the foot will run along the leg to the abdomen. So, if you keep your legs or stomach on, cold back can affect your fertility.

3. Swimming during menstruation

While research shows that brain activity won't change much during your menstrual cycle, your body is different. During this stage, the body becomes more sensitive, and the endocrine system changes and the cervix will expand. This means you are more susceptible to cold infections. Therefore, if you go swimming at the "red light", the uterus can become directly or indirectly cold.

4. Chilling when it rains

Wearing wet clothes when it is raining is also one of the reasons why the uterus becomes cold.

Causes inside and outside combine

Although there are many differences between internal and external causes, but between them there are impacts and mutual effects. The decrease in positive energy makes the body cold from the inside, so it is easier to catch cold from the outside. When the outside cold enters your body, positive energy will be affected or decreased. Both factors can lead to difficulty in getting pregnant.

Prevent a cold uterus

Once you understand the cause of a cold uterus, you can prevent a cold uterus if you keep the following in mind:

Do not sit for long or often on cold, wet floors

Keep your feet, stomach and back warm. Wear clothing that covers both the navel and waist. Wear socks or shoes in winter

Change clothes right after getting wet

Dry your hair after bathing and before going out in the cold
