The Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) method involves carefully washing and draining the placenta. It is then steamed with lemon and ginger, sliced, dried, ground, and encapsulated. This time honored practice has been used for many years and is known for its effectiveness. However, it’s important to note that hormones are heat sensitive, which may affect their potency during the steaming process.

The RAW method involves washing the placenta, slicing it in its raw state, and dehydrating it at a low temperature, never exceeding 115 degrees. Once dried, it is ground and encapsulated. Many prefer this option because it helps retain more of the natural hormones lost during labor and delivery, supporting postpartum recovery.

Placenta tinctures offer lasting support once capsules are gone, helping to reduce stress and navigate life’s transitions. Many mothers find their tincture beneficial for easing emotional challenges, anxiety, and stress during PMS, weaning, returning to work, illness, and even perimenopause. This versatile remedy provides a gentle, natural way to support emotional and hormonal balance throughout various stages of life.
