Agrimony can help curb
mentstrual bleeding

Heavy menstrual bleeding, clotting or irregular bleeding are come under the heading of menorrhagia. Serious bleeding can be a sign of uterine cancer or a fibrous growth, and should be diagnosed by a medical professional without delay. Supplement your diet with plenty of dark green leafy vegetables, root vegetables, high-quality protein and whole grains. You may will to take an iron supplement as well during periods of heavy bleeding.

Perhaps the best, but by no means only way, of curbing excessive menstrual flow and the cramping that often accompanies it, is to treat yourself to a cup of soothing herbal tea. For daytime use, my personal preferences is agrimony, a herb with a history of use that reaches back to ancient Greek and Chinese medicine. Agrimony, has a pleasant, slightly lemony taste, and is one of the more moderately priced herbs. Other great choices are raspberry, yarrow and lady's's mantle. As always, do your research, and try a selection of herbs that have the qualities and properties you are looking for. Then let your intuition guide you to the herb that has the most affinity for you.
