Yarrow is an excellent herb to have in your home apothecary and first aid kit as its uses are abundant.
An emmenagogue and styptic, it supports healthy menstruation by both promoting scanty or delayed menses and slowing down heavy bleeding. It also relieves congestion in the uterus. It is great in the premenstrual phase to modulate inflammation and acts as an emotional armour for those who suffer with feelings of introversion and sensitivity during this time (or at any time).
Yarrow can be diluted in water and used topically on wounds to stop external bleeding or on topical infections as well, and its antimicrobial action helps to disinfect the area (internally and externally).
Its diaphoretic action makes it particularly good for supporting hot and cold fevers by encouraging sweating. It's a natural decongestant and expectorant with astringent action that works well to support wet coughs and nasal congestion due to colds, flu, sinus infections and allergies. It is very effective when taken on the onset of flu symptoms.
Yarrow is a wonderful ally for any oral health complications such as bleeding, infected or swollen gums, and tooth infections.
It aids in digestion both as a preventative measure and after eating heavy meals by encouraging the release of bile and promoting movement in the intestinal tract.
Yarrow also supports infections in the respiratory and urinary systems.
Yarrow tincture can be diluted in a bit of water and used as a cleansing spray for hands and wiping down sick rooms.
