Traditional literature describes Lady’s Mantle in relation to menstrual and gastrointestinal complaints, but contemporary human clinical evidence for the single herb remains limited. Claims should therefore remain clearly traditional rather than suggesting clinically proven treatment.

Heavy menstrual bleeding can have several causes, including hormonal changes, uterine conditions and bleeding disorders. See your doctor if periods are heavy, last longer than usual, affect everyday life or cause tiredness, pallor, dizziness or significant pain.

Seek urgent medical care if vaginal bleeding is extremely heavy or accompanied by faintness or a feeling that you may pass out.

Bleeding between periods, bleeding after sex, bleeding during pregnancy and any bleeding after menopause require medical assessment.

Do not use Lady’s Mantle to delay assessment of unexplained menstrual or vaginal bleeding.

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before use if you take anticoagulant or antiplatelet medicines, use hormonal medication or contraception, have a diagnosed bleeding disorder or are undergoing investigation for abnormal bleeding.

This precaution does not claim a proven herb–medicine interaction. It reflects the importance of determining why abnormal bleeding is occurring.

Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding only when specifically directed by a qualified healthcare practitioner.

Do not use this product to self-manage bleeding during pregnancy. Vaginal bleeding during pregnancy requires prompt professional advice.

Changes in vaginal discharge may be caused by infection or another condition requiring examination or testing. Healthdirect advises avoiding vaginal douching because it can contribute to irritation and disruption of normal vaginal health.
