Preventive Medicine
Do not use black cohosh on women, who continue to bleed after three weeks of the use of black cohosh.
Do this:
- Use two tablespoons of chaste tree, three of red raspberry, one of false unicorn, and two each of witch hazel bark, milk thistle, beth root, and periwinkle leaf.
- Simmer the non-leaf herbs gently in one quart of water for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Then remove from the fire and add the periwinkle and red raspberry leaves for 30 minutes of steeping.
- Dilute to five to eight cups, and take this herb preparation throughout the day.
Also helpful for persistent bleeding is a hot foot bath, with a cold pack to the pelvis, for 30 minutes.
Fasting is also helpful for persistent uterine bleeding, but if anemia or weight loss are a problem, fasting may not be a good choice. For anemia use floridex, a preparation from herbs with no added iron, which is very good for anemia.
