Herb Lore’s Hem Stopper Tincture is used to help staunch bleeding after a birth. It’s best used immediately after the birth (and after the birth of the placenta), and as long as the bleeding or risk of bleeding continues.
If the placenta has not been birthed yet and is the cause for bleeding, the Placenta Release Tincture is then recommended.
This tincture is NOT for use during pregnancy, but is fine for birth.
The Hem Stopper Tincture contains Organic Blue Cohosh Root, Yarrow, Motherwort and Alfalfa.
The Blue Cohosh is an oxytocic herb, helping the uterus to contract and clamp down, while the Yarrow is a power stypic herb (stops bleeding). Motherwort is well-known for being a reliable at helping to stop bleeding and as a uterine tonic, and the Alfalfa is very high in Vitamin K, the blood coagulating vitamin.
Suggestions for use:
Give 1-2 droppersful (squeezes) of the tincture immediately after the baby’s birth. Continue to give 1-2 droppersful every 5-15 minutes until bleeding stops.
This product should be used under the guidance of a midwife or other health care professional.
