Pain during periods that only improves with heat
Menstrual pain that responds mainly to heat suggests cold-predominant or spasmodic cramping in the pelvic area. Warmth relaxes uterine muscles and improves blood flow. In Ayurveda, this pattern often points to a Vata imbalance with cold and constricting qualities.
