Postpartum hemorrhage is a complication of childbirth in which the mother experiences heavy bleeding from the vagina after delivering the baby. Postpartum hemorrhage must be dealt with immediately, and the following postpartum hemorrhage formulas should be prepared ahead of delivery.

1. Chop equal parts dried blue cohosh, dried shepherd's purse and dried motherwort coarsely. Place the chopped herbs in a glass jar.
