The herbal midwives that I know swear by Shepherd’s Purse as one of the best ways to stop uterine hemorrhage after childbirth. Certainly, I have seen this herb work miracles time after time. I have used Shepherd’s Purse to control bleeding, both at births, and with my family for many other types of bleeding. Shepherd’s Purse is an astringent herb and is used to disinfect the kidneys in cystitis and for slowing diarrhea. Believed to be anti-inflammatory and helpful in reducing fevers.
