I'm planning to buy moxa sticks, as many people say that frequent moxibustion can treat cold uterus. I do have a cold uterus—how effective is moxibustion on the uterus?

Moxibustion using moxa sticks has significant effects on the uterus. For conditions such as scanty menstruation, blood clots, anovulation, increased vaginal discharge, breast tenderness, and dysmenorrhea, far-infrared moxibustion can be used to warm the uterus, dispel cold, promote blood circulation, and treat symptoms by stimulating specific acupoints, thereby increasing uterine temperature and vitality. During the reproductive years, insufficient kidney qi may lead to hormonal imbalances in women, particularly estrogen disruption, which can result in low libido.
