People <http://www.people.com/article/gwyneth-paltrow-vagina-advice>: *Gwyneth
Paltrow wants you to steam your lady parts* – but before you going running
off to the nearest vaginal spa (yes, they exist), you might want to consult
your doctor.

In one of her latest GOOP posts
<http://goop.com/city-guide/infrared-saunas-detox-spas-and-the-best-spots-for-colonics/tikkun-spa/>*
(which
has since disappeared)*  the Oscar winner/lifestyle guru, 42, raves about a
special treatment available at Tikkun Spa in Santa Monica.

"The real golden ticket here is the Mugworth V-Steam," Paltrow says. "You
sit on what is essentially a mini-throne, and *a combination of infared and
mugwort steam cleanses your uterus, et al*."

And this isn't your mother's vagina steam: "It is an energetic release – *not
just a steam douche – that balances female hormone levels*. If you're in
L.A., you have to do it."

But according to Dr. Jen Gunter, a board certified OB/GYN and expert in
vulvovaginal disorders, *Paltrow's medical claims surrounding the steams
are just a bunch of hot air*, at best.

In a detailed post to her blog
<https://drjengunter.wordpress.com/2015/01/27/gwyneth-paltrow-says-steam-your-vagina-an-obgyn-says-dont/>,
Dr. Gunter warns, "Steam is probably not good for your vagina. Herbal steam
is no better and *quite possibly worse*."

She explains, "Mugwort or wormwood or whatever when steamed, either
vaginally or on the vulva, *can't possibly balance any reproductive
hormones, regulate your menstrual cycle, treat depression, or cure
infertility*."

Dr. Gunter also takes issue with Paltrow's claims that the steam "cleanses
your uterus." She writes "*Steam isn't going to get into your uterus from
your vagina unless you are using an attachment with some kind of pressure
and MOST DEFINITELY NEVER EVER DO THAT.*"

As with most medical questions, it's generally wise to get a second opinion.
Dr. David L. Finke <https://twitter.com/drfinke>, a Los Angeles-based
OB/GYN, tells PEOPLE, "I don't think it's completely crazy to say [the
steam] could be beneficial” – just maybe not in the way Paltrow claims.

"It could change the circulation patterns for probably 30 minutes to an
hour," Dr. Finke says. "Depending on how the steam is applied, the benefits
could be similar to a regular steam room."

Dr. Finke notes, *"As far as bold claims that doing this will change
hormonal balance or cleanse the uterus, it's probably bogus."*

But really, who would take advice from "one of Obama's biggest fans
<http://fellowshipoftheminds.com/2014/10/11/hollyweird-moonbat-paltrow-to-obama-um-im-one-of-your-biggest-fans/>"?
Probably this woman
