The question of the influence of balneological treatment on menstrual function and the admissibility of using mud baths during the menstrual period has long attracted the attention of Russian doctors. So, back in 1826, Dr. Konrad noted good results in the treatment of menstrual disorders in the Caucasus. And even earlier, as can be seen from the announcement about Lipetsk, published under Peter I, menstruation disorder was considered an indication for spa treatment. Puparev (1847) and Brykov (1848) point to the beneficial effect of balneological treatment for menstrual disorders. In the journal of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for 1853, in an article about the Odessa estuaries, in the number of indications, menstruation disorder was indicated.
