Yes, steaming can potentially cause bleeding, or increase existing bleeding in certain situations.
The referenced information indicates that if you are currently menstruating (actively bleeding), it is generally not recommended to steam. The warmth from the steam increases circulation to the reproductive organs. This increased circulation could, in turn, lead to a heavier or prolonged period, potentially to an unsafe level.
Therefore, while steaming itself doesn't cause bleeding in the absence of a period, it can exacerbate existing menstrual bleeding. It is essential to avoid steaming during your period or if you are experiencing unexplained bleeding. Consult with a healthcare professional if you have concerns about bleeding or the suitability of steaming for your specific situation.
