The #1 thing people push back on when I bring up socks and period health: “I can’t wear socks.”
Fair. But this was never really about the socks, it’s about your feet not being cold in the first place. Cold feet = cold in the channels that run straight to your uterus = sluggish blood = cramps, clots, delayed cycles.
Can’t do socks? Foot soaks, castor oil on the soles, compression bands, staying off cold floors during your luteal phase all work too.
But if your feet run HOT at night, burning soles, kicking off blankets, restless, that’s a completely different pattern (usually Kidney Yin or Liver blood deficiency generating heat), and it needs a completely different fix.
Cold feet ≠ hot feet ≠ same protocol. Which one sounds like you?
