Herb Lore’s Placenta Release Tincture is used to help expel the placenta after baby’s birth. 

Not for use in pregnancy until the birth.

The Placenta Release Tincture contains organic:

  • Angelica (Archangelica)
  • Red Raspberry Leaf
  • Blue Cohosh
  • Yarrow
  • Shepherd’s Purse

Angelica is a powerful emmenagogue and uterine stimulant that is typically quite successful in releasing even a fully-adhered placenta.  Do not confuse Archangelica with Angelica Sinensis (Dong Quai).  Dong Quai can exacerbate bleeding.  The Angelica Archangelica is a much better choice for third stage use.  Red Raspberry Leaf helps to facilitate placenta delivery and helps keep the uterus working strongly and smoothly.  Blue Cohosh is an oxytocic herb, helping the uterus to contract and clamp down, while the Yarrow is a powerful styptic herb (helps to stop bleeding).  Shepherd’s Purse not only helps stop bleeding but it helps promote uterine contractions as well.  These uterine contractions will help detach the placenta from the uterine wall and clamp off the exposed blood vessels. 

Suggestions for use:
Give 1-2 droppersful (squeezes) of the tincture to help detach and expel the placenta.  Continue to give 1-2 droppersful every 5-15 minutes until the placenta is delivered.

This product is a favorite of Robin Lim, midwife and director of Bumi Sehat Birth Center in Bali, Indonesia and CNN's Person of the Year 2013.

I am a huge advocate for Herb Lore and their products. They are so easy to talk to, knowledgeable and they make sure my products get shipped right away. The herbs I used were instrumental in my postpartum recovery. I used the Postpartum Sitz Bath Herbs after all three deliveries - they helped my stitches feel more comfortable and heal faster.  I also love Herb Lore's Pregnancy Tea. I would make a large batch to last a couple of days and drink it all throughout the day. It was comforting to know the ingredients were helping the baby and also preparing my body to give birth.  M.G.
