Hi,

>Can anyone steer me in the right direction as to what kind of herb preparations are good for the menses. I have a friend who every month has to miss 2 day of work because she bleeds too much and has bad cramps. Thank you in advance for any information. She is in good health but I do not know if she has been to see the doc. for this problem.

Try Lady's mantle. I used to have very heavy menses, I would have to lay down w/ my legs in the air, etc., when my menses came on. I tried Lady's mantle a few years ago and the results were great! Pour boiling water over a few teaspoons of the herb, and then let it sit for ten to fifteen minutes, and sip it, a few swallows at a time, until gone.
