Nose pin or “Nath” (in Hindi) is such an elegant accessory that is a part of Indian culture. Nose piercing is a significant Indian custom followed by Indian women. Married or unmarried, both can wear a nose pin. In the case of an unmarried girl, they must pierce the nose by the age of 16 (traditionally the marriage age in India). But the nose ring must be worn by the bride on her marriage day.

According to Hindu beliefs, the exhaled breath of the wife is good for her husband and her child. Most places like in eastern India, the superstition is that when a woman wears a nose pin, the air comes through the metallic circumvention, which is good for health. Besides, wearing a nose pin benefits a woman’s health, according to Ayurveda. Let us explain.

Nose ring health benefits in Ayurveda:

A nose pin or ring must be worn on the left side of the nose. The nerves on the left nostril are connected with the woman’s reproductive organs. Piercing on the left nostril helps a woman in childbirth.

Every girl or woman should wear nose rings. As per Ayurveda, piercing into a particular node near to the left nostril treats the monthly menstrual pain of a woman.

Though history says nose ring custom came to India during the Mughal era in the 16th century. Today women from every religion wear these stunning nose studs.
