Vaginal Steaming: Pros and Cons

Have you heard of vaginal steaming recently? also, known as v-steaming, yoni steaming, or womb steaming?

V-steaming is a practice in which a woman sits over a bowl of boiling water and allows the vapor to rise into the vagina – herbs are sometimes added to the water.

This therapy is an alternative medicine practice that is becoming increasingly popular and in high demand due in part to celebrity endorsements like Gwyneth Paltrow, who claims that it offers “an energetic release.”

Proponents assure that the practice can help to cleanse the uterus, reduce inflammation and ease menstrual cramps. Some women even say it has improved their fertility as well.

It seems like this would be a great alternative for those who are tired of using chemicals or feminine hygiene products regularly to maintain healthy vaginas.

On the other hand,there is a lot of controversy surrounding the use and effectiveness of this treatment.

So what’s the truth?

Let’s take a look at the pros and cons to see if it’s something you should try.

What is vaginal steaming?

It’s an alternative therapy that has been practiced for centuries by cultures all over the world.

The exact origin is unknown, but it is believed to have started in Korea and then spread to other parts of Asia and Africa.

There are many different types of medicinal baths and vagina steaming have been used for centuries to help alleviate pain and also for relieving period discomfort.

The process involves sitting on a specially prepared seat that heats water and might include medicinal herbs and letting its vapor rise which then penetrates deep into the walls of the vagina.

Is said to increase blood flow to the vagina and improve reproductive health, relieve menstruation discomfort, and balance hormones among other benefits.

Some people also believe that this therapy can improve fertility. Though there is no scientific evidence to support these claims, the practice is in high demand.

There are a few different ways to steam vaginally.

One is to sit or squat over a pot of hot water that contains steaming herbs. Another is to purchase a special seat, which essentially does the same thing. If you’re feeling adventurous in your own home then this should be easy for you.

There are also spa treatments available that offer vaginal steaming services. These typically involve sitting in a chair while a professional directs a stream of herb-infused steam towards the vagina.

We have already mentioned a few of the claimed benefits, but let’s take a closer look at some of the pros and cons.

Cons

On the other hand, some specialists doubt that there is any scientific evidence to back up these claims. Besides, the vagina is a self-cleaning organ that does not need any help from the outside, they say.

If not done correctly, some experts advise against it because it could do more harm than good. For example:

• Increased blood flow can lead to itchiness
• If the water is too hot it could burn the skin around the vagina
• The steam that’s not properly filtered can also contain harmful toxins
• This can lead to increased vagina discharge and irritation
• There’s a risk of infection if the area is not properly sterilized before treatment
