Toe rings are worn as a symbol of married state by Hindu women and is called Bichiya in Hindi. They are a must for married Hindu woman. Tradition of wearing toe rings carries tremendous social significance for married women in India.
Bichiya are usually made of silver and worn in pairs on the second toe of both feet. The reason that they are not made of gold is because they consider it inappropriate to wear gold below the waist for its respected status.
The reason that they went Bichiya, apart from the indication of their marital status, they believe that the second toe regulates menstrual cycle and plays a significant role in treating gynaecological problems. In other words, the constant friction caused by the Bichiya on the toes while walking during the day helps revitalises the human reproductive system and increase chance of conceiving.
NEBO’s opinion? Early medical consult if of great essence if you have fertility issues, or any gynaecological problems. Do not reply on stuff that have no scientific proof or evidence and believe that they can cure your disease. They may make your condition worse by masking the symptoms and presentation.
