This is an interesting formula in that Myrrh and Frankincense are regarded as ‘Blood movers’ that would tend to increase Bleeding. However, this formula is most likely beneficial in cases with excess hot, sharp and thin blood as the gums will tend to thicken and stabilise the blood. The Red Earth is the Primary Hemostatic.
It could be that this formula is very useful for Excess Bleeding that is associated with Fibroids, as it resolves and astringes simultaneously.
