I think it's important to state i have not carried children which may affect my outcome/results/symptoms (?)...I am 48. i have had heavy menstrual bleeding and clotting for almost two years with intermittent break thru bleeding. I went for my annual exam and was told by the young (female) GYN I should have a hysterectomy! I declined so she suggested an ultrasound which showed a polyp in my uterus. She performed surgery to remove the benign polyp (and did a D&C). Three months later the same issues recurred. I learned on this site rarely do D&Cs correct excessive bleeding. She suggested a hysterectomy, again! Frustrated, I switched to another MD who incorporated complementary therapies. New MD ordered an ultrasound to rule out another polyp. In the interim, he put me on Vitanica Slow Flow with Shepard's purse and other herbs. Worked to lessen flow immediately. Very happy with results and actually comfortable! F/u Ultrasound showed no polyps and have taken SF now for a second time. Great results again. Sisters, as one who worked in hospitals for nearly 20 years, do not take surgery as the only answer to your problems. Ask lots of questions and advocate for yourself. Today, many doctors are driven by making their numbers, not making you healthy. There have been many reports of unwarranted surgeries, including one on CNN which claimed experts say 2/3rds of hysterectomies are unneceassary! be sure to do your homework!

I had Mirena placed in September 2012 and have had spotting/bleeding off and on ever since. Fed up and about to have it removed, I search online for something to help stop the bleeding and found Shephards Purse. I took a dose (35 drops) as soon as I received it and the bleeding stopped. The taste is awful, but I hold my breath and chase it with juice. I am so happy I found this herbal, na ... Show Full Comment

I have been having an awful, long menstrual cycle (going on one month now). I am 39 and am not yet into menopause but am entering the perimenopause phase. I was researching natural medicines on the internet and found that Lady's Mantle along with Shepherd's purse could possibly slow down the bleeding. I also have 3 fibroids so that doesn't help. I have been taking it for 3 days now ... Show Full Comment

I have been having an awful, long menstrual cycle (going on one month now). I am 39 and am not yet into menopause but am entering the perimenopause phase. I was researching natural medicines on the internet and found that Lady's Mantle along with Shepherd's purse could possibly slow down the bleeding. I also have 3 fibroids so that doesn't help. I have been taking it for 3 days now as a tea form and it has reduced the bleeding significantly. I am crossing my fingers that this is the ticket to make my awful long period go away.
