Dear Bob Liebert,

I had a miscarriage in March and now have irregular cycles, one comes late, then they don't leave. So I was put on Aygestin for a few days, and then got a normal cycle after that, but again my cycles are abnormal. So I started taking Chaste Berry and Zinc about 2 weeks now, and I am bleeding for over 12 days now, and it seems to stop, then when I have intercourse it comes back again heavier. Any suggestions?

Dear Friend,

I would suggest adding herbs that are uterine tonics. Our Black Haw and Squaw Vine extracts would be good to take regularly. For acute bleeding the Witch Hazel extract can be added, as well a teaspoon being added to a pint of water as a douche to be used after intercourse. If you need more info on dosages, etc. let me know.

Yours in healing,
Bob Liebert, herbalist
