Similar to labor, if the uterus needs to get something out, it will contract. Although menstrual cramps are normally a lot less severe than labor cramps, they are a sign that something is stuck. Sometimes this might be old dried blood stuck to the walls or there might be a clot. Doing a vaginal steam a couple days prior to your period and afterwards with cleansing herbs 🌿 can help to loosen up anything that might be stuck in the uterus and can greatly decrease, if not entirely eliminate, cramps.

Just like anywhere else in the body, menstrual blood clots are a sign of poor circulation. Whether they are small, large, consist of fresh or old menses, they’re all a sign that the circulation was slower than it was supposed to be and the blood was able to clot up and get stuck. For periods with clots in them, it’s a good idea to steam before and after the period for two or three consecutive months in a row until they no longer appear in the menstruation. The first period after steaming might have more clots as they clear out, but the next few months these will get fewer until they disappear entirely.
