After struggling with infertility, I dove into ALL THE THINGS that could help boost my fertility while trying to conceive. I eliminated toxins, I drank a daily fertility smoothie, I did a radical fertility diet, I did daily fertility mind-body work, AND, I made this nourishing herbal tea infusion to drink every day!
If you’re feeling overwhelmed while trying to conceive and aren’t sure you can add ONE MORE THING, rest assured this is a pretty easy herbal infusion to make. It easily fits into your daily rhythms, and I think it tastes great cold or warm. This natural nourishing mix of the fertility herbs includes nettles, red raspberry, and oat straw, and is made to will boost your fertility by providing dense nourishment and (hopefully) increasing the health of your uterine lining. 
Why I decided to drink a womb fertility tea every day
After two years of repeated early miscarriages, and being told I had high FSH, endometriosis, and diminished ovarian reserve, I was given only one shot of trying IVF before the doctors would say my only option was donor eggs. I did everything I possibly could to try to lower my FSH and become more fertile, including drinking a glass of this nourishing infusion every day. I got pregnant naturally in under three months and never wound up trying that one shot of IVF! And then I did it again a few years later!
When I was doing my research on EVERYTHING fertility, I read the Wise Woman Herbal for the Childbearing Year by Susan Weed. In it, she suggests an herbal fertility infusion, and discusses the herbs red raspberry, nettles, oatstraw, and red clover. From this book I developed the idea of my fertility infusion.
Are Fertility Herbs Safe When Doing IUI or IVF?
The fertility herbs that I use in my fertility herbal tea infusion recipe are red raspberry, nettles, and oatstraw. These are incredibly gentle and nourishing herbs. That is why I am not nervous about publishing this recipe on the internet- if it contained stronger medicinal herbs, I would not want to publish it. Of course, speak to your doctor about whether these teas are right for you, especially if trying IUI or IVF, or preparing for a donor egg cycle. They are such gentle and nourishing herbs, most doctors will be fine with them.
Be aware that doctors often get nervous when you say “herbal remedy” because there are so many herbs out there that are super powerful and can affect your hormone balance. So, your doctor may advise you to stop taking the infusion while you cycle. I personally wouldn’t take anything related to hormonal balance- like red clover leaf- while cycling, but these three herbs I’ve identified are fundamentally nourishing and not known to alter hormones. However, if you are on blood thinners (beyond baby aspirin) for your cycle, then you might consider dropping the nettles from this infusion.
Hey all, I’m not a doctor or an herbalist. Just a lady who loves to research and drank this fertility infusion to get pregnant. Please always follow your wise intution and consult with your personal healers- doctors, herbalists, naturalists, acupuncturists, etc., on what is appropriate for YOU!
When Should You Drink Fertility Tea?
You can drink this infusion throughout your cycle, and some people drink it throughout their pregnancy. Out of an overabundance of caution, people (like me) who are terribly afraid of early miscarriage will not drink nettles or red raspberry during the first trimester, even though midwives would say it is fine. This infusion is recommended, however, in the third trimester, to prepare the body for birth. Often, nettles are stopped several weeks before birth and the infusion changes to a simple (100%) red raspberry blend.
Is it safe to drink Red Raspberry Leaf during the Luteal Phase AKA the Two Week Wait?
So, here is the deal. Herbalists are roughly split down the middle with whether they recommend drinking red raspberry leaf (RRL) tea during the two week wait (2ww) which is also known as the luteal phase. The internet is extremely unhelpful here. We have one herbalist saying to avoid RRL because it can thin uterine lining and cause contractions. And then we have another herbalist saying to continue RRL in the two week wait because it can thicken uterine lining and prep the womb to conceive. Generally, none of these writers will cite any sources.
So, what does the research say? There are a small handful of studies done on rats with RRL and guess what? In some the super high doses of red raspberry leaf cause contractions, while in others, the red raspberry leaf SOOTHES the contractions away. Ugh. The researchers decided it was all inconclusive and likely not doing anything. And we only have studies on pregnant rats, no studies on rats or women trying to get pregnant. At the end of the day, I personally choose to CONTINUE the red raspberry in my infusion through the two week wait, and only stopped when I got a BFP (big fat positive pregnancy test).
Do fertility herbs taste good?
This fertility infusion should taste nourishing and yummy. When you drink it, you should enjoy it and feel like it is providing your body with the nourishment you need. If you don’t like it, it doesn’t taste good, or it just doesn’t feel like the right herbal combination for you, then maybe it isn’t! Do some research into medicinal herbs for fertility and consider if another herb (or a combination of other herbs) is right for you.
I recommend the nourishing infusion of nettles, red raspberry, and oat straw, because they are so gentle and so nourishing that they will help prepare the womb and body for anyone trying to get pregnant. Before I get into the details of the recipe, I want to spend a little time talking about each herb and why it is helpful in preparing for pregnancy!

Nettles
Dried Nettle Leaf, photo from Mountain Rose Herbs
Nettles are one of the most nourishing herbs. According to Susan Weed, the herbal healing guru, a one quart infusion of nettles contains more than 1000 milligrams of calcium, 15000 IU of vitamin A, 760 milligrams of vitamin K, and plenty of most B vitamins. Its reputation is as the herb with the most chlorophyll – the substance thought to be what makes “green” superfoods like wheatgrass, so helpful to getting pregnant. Nettles provides a food source of folate (food-based folic acid) (crucial for a healthy pregnancy) and tones the adrenal system which then provides additional energy for the body to focus on making a baby.
Drinking a nettles infusion is basically like having two servings of leafy greens- only better. Your body needs optimal nourishment in order to have the energy to grow healthy eggs, develop a perfect uterine lining, and sustain a pregnancy. Also, if you have eliminated dairy, as I suggest may be necessary for some women trying to conceive, you need to ensure you are getting enough calcium. Nettles is the right herb for the job. For a single nettles infusion, take 1 cup of dried nettles and put into a quart mason jar. Fill the jar with boiling water, cover, and steep overnight or for at least 4 hours. Strain, and drink warm, hot, cold, whatever your preference. I like nettles straight up- some add a little honey. Drink 1 to 3 cups a day. Nettles is probably safe throughout pregnancy, however, out of an overabundance of caution I chose not to use it after I confirmed my pregnancy with a blood test. I did use it in my third trimester to prepare for birth.
Warning! A strong nettles infusion can lower your blood pressure, lower your blood sugar and thin your blood. For most women trying to get pregnant this is helpful. But, if you struggle with one of these conditions already or are medicated for one of them, avoid a simple nettles infusion, and don’t overdo the suggested amounts in the three-herb infusion.
Red Raspberry Leaf
Dried Red Raspberry Leaf, photo from Mountain Rose Herbs
Red Raspberry Leaf is THE uterine tonic in the herbal world. Anyone trying to conceive, whether they are just starting or have been struggling with infertility, whether they are trying to get pregnant naturally, or using IUI, IVF, or preparing for a donor egg transfer, should be using Red Raspberry leaf. Red Raspberry leaf is full of vitamin C, vitamin E, calcium, iron, vitamin A, vitamin B, and many minerals. It promotes healthy menstruation (including managing excessive menstrual bleeding), improves egg quality through nutrition, assists in the healing of the uterus after surgery, and may lengthen a short luteal phase. It is most well known for toning the uterus however, and for this reason, it is thought that using it in preparation for pregnancy can even prevent some kinds of miscarriage (especially those associated with uterine lining/implantation issues). Just like nettles, if you want, you can take this as a simple single infusion, using the directions above. While Red Raspberry is probably safe throughout pregnancy, and is recommended by midwives as a remedy for morning sickness and a miscarriage preventative, out of an overabundance of caution I chose not to use it after I confirmed my pregnancy with a blood test. I did use it in my third trimester to prepare for birth.
I should note there is a bit of an online controversy about using Red Raspberry Leaf during the two week wait, due to a single study that showed that in some doses it caused pregnant rats to have weak contractions. However the authors of the study say it was inconclusive and that the effect depends on pregnancy status. I used it during the two week wait of my successful pregnancy, and many women drink it throughout the first trimester (and have for hundreds of years). I don’t believe it is dangerous- instead I believe it is helpful, toning the uterus and increasing blood flow right when you need it (the two week wait). Most midwives and herbalists agree with this. However, if you would prefer to be more cautious, you can only include it in your infusion from menstruation to ovulation.
Oatstraw
Dried Oatstraw, photo from Mountain Rose Herbs
Oatstraw is the super gentle, nourishing grasses of the oat plant. Both oats (the grain) and the oat grasses are incredibly nourishing, and soothing to the system. Oatstraw promotes a strong and calm nervous system, and healthy endocrine system- something that is absolutely crucial when trying to conceive. Susan Weed in her book “Healing Wise” writes, “ Avena [oatstraw] eases spasms and inflammation throughout your being, allowing engorged cells to relax, release fluid, and cool off.” This sounds to me like exactly what we are trying to do while attempting to conceive! Reduce inflammation (which can cause ovulation and implantation problems) and calm the body so that it can receive that little embryo and nourish it! Oatstraw is high in vitamin C vitamin A, calcium, iron, potassium, phosphorus, the vitamin B complex (including folate), vitamins E, G, and K, and fiber. Finally, oatstraw helps to stabilize your blood sugar- something that we all know is crucial in a fertility friendly diet. Oatstraw is absolutely safe throughout pregnancy- no worries there. If you have Celiacs and need to strictly avoid all gluten, consider purchasing a gluten-free oatstraw like this one from Oregon’s Wild Harvest.
I do want to mention one other herb that is very helpful for some women struggling with “infertility” but that I did not personally use when trying to conceive- Red Clover.
Red Clover
Dried Red Clover Blossoms, photo from Mountain Rose Herbs
Red Clover is a fertility herb with very high vitamin and mineral content. This herb helps balance hormones, and potentially, helps unblock fallopian tubes. It is often used to help regulate an irregular menstrual cycle. If you have blocked fallopian tubes, an irregular cycle, irregular ovulation, or unexplained infertility, consider substituting red clover in for the oatstraw in the above recipe. Because I didn’t have those conditions, and because red clover is thought to have an estrogenic effect on the body (which might be bad for endometriosis, which I have), I did not use red clover. The herbalists over at Natural Fertility Info seem to dismiss my concerns however, and tout Red Clover as a wonder herb. It just might be- if you read about it and it sounds right to you, try it. If it tastes good and makes you feel good, use it! Again, out of an overabundance of caution due to my history of endometriosis, I avoid it.
Finding the herbs!
For sourcing herbs, if I have to make a bulk order, I order from Mountain Rose Herbs. Unfortunately, they charge for shipping, but they are a well-respected organic herb supplier. Luckily, Amazon has plenty of “prime” free shipping options so you can get your herbs quickly. I’ve ordered both Starwest and Frontier from Amazon when I want to receive my order within a day or two. I have never had problems with quality from either.
Of course, wild harvesting them yourself is the best :-). Unfortunately, this suburban girl ain’t got time or access for that.
How to Make an Herbal Fertility Infusion
In the kitchen, I am all about efficiency. Since this is a regular part of my nourishing fertility diet, I want to make this infusion quickly. Also, even though it might be slightly better for me, I don’t want to have to make a new infusion every night. So although you can use a 1 qt mason jar with ⅓ cup each of Nettles, Red Raspberry, and Oatstraw, I prefer to use a larger 2 qt/64 oz mason jar. This produces six cups of the infusion, and I drink two cups every day for three days. That way I only have to do this every three days instead of every day or every other day!
First, measure out ⅔ cup each of Nettles, Red Rasberry, and Oatstraw.
Measuring the herbs
Place the dried herbs into a 2 qt mason jar. It should measure up to about the 2 cup mark, or just beyond. I tend to be overly generous.
Fertility Herbs Prepped
Boil 2 qts of water.
A note on boiling water: If you don’t use an electric kettle to boil water you should probably get o
ne! Ours boils 2 qts of water in under five minutes. If I’m only boiling a cup of water it takes under a minute. Seriously, these things are amazing! BUT, you have to get a non-plastic kettle, otherwise you risk phthalates leaching into your water. Phthalates are toxic endocrine-disrupting chemicals that wreak havoc on your fertility. We scoured the internet to find a kettle that has absolutely no plastic touching the water, and the inside of the lid is stainless as well. It isn’t the prettiest thing (there were prettier ones that were more expensive), but it is made in the U.S. (Wisconsin!), and stays cool on the outside so you don’t have to worry about burnt fingers.
Pour your safe, phthalate-free, boiling water over the herbs and fill up your mason jar. I usually do a circular motion to try to get all the herbs under the boiling water, but it doesn’t really matter.
Pouring the boiling water
Place the lid on the mason jar and steep overnight or for at least four hours. The infusion will be a nice dark color when ready.
Fertility Infusion ready to strain!
Strain the infusion using a fine wire-mesh strainer. I kind of press the liquid out of the herbs with a wooden spoon, but it’s not really necessary. I usually rinse the mason jar, and put the strained liquid right back into it.
Strain the fertility infusion
Enjoy, warm, cold, hot, anyway that tastes best to you! I prefer it a little chilled.
Enjoying my infusion and a little light reading
Its that easy!
If you compost, the leftover herbs are AMAZING activators. Nettles have a lot of nitrogen, so we never have to buy anything else to help our compost decompose!

Hi Anna – for those of us avoiding gluten, is the oat straw ok to use?
Caroline!
Good question! In theory, the oatstraw could have been processed on a shared machine with wheat, and so, it is possible that some gluten residue could remain. For those with celiacs, I would find a gluten-free oatstraw. it looks like Oregon’s Wild Harvest makes some- https://www.oregonswildharvest.com/bulk-oat-straw-tops-cs-organic. If you have tested negative for celiacs but are avoiding gluten in general, it would be a personal choice (I wouldn’t worry about it). If you haven’t had any testing done, then you might want to go with a gluten free option just in case. I’ll update the post based on this concern! Thank you!
Anna
Hi Anna,
If I don’t use the organic nettles leaf, should I be adding more red raspberry leaf and oatstraw to the recipe?
Thanks!
Betty– Yes, exactly! Do a full cup of each! – Anna
If using Red Clover, should I use the blossoms or the leaf? Or a mix?
Get the blossoms! If some leaves come, don’t worry about it, but order the blossoms!
Thank you very much Anna. This is so detailed. God bless you.
Hi Anna,
Thank you so much for your entire blog. I’m just starting my journey of mommy-to-be but unfortunately my RE is stating that I have a very low AMH. I’ve done some research and I also have very low Vitamin D which could be affecting my AMH level. We are awaiting our next appointment now that the blood results are back to learn what our next step is. I’m only 27 and my husband is perfectly healthy. We are hoping that age is the best thing going for us and the fact that I have no other issues besides low amh. Your blog, advice and story is so inspiring. I look forward to trying everything you did on your list and praying, praying, praying that we get a little miracle baby.
Best,
Emily
Emily,
So glad you found the blog!! I will say a prayer for you and your husband that you find your miracle baby!!! Low AMH isn’t the end of the world- best of luck getting to the bottom of everything and becoming as happy and healthy as you can on your journey!!
Baby Dust!
Anna
Love your blog but OMG this herbal infusion tastes TERRIBLE!
Hahaha you made me laugh!! Try cutting down the amount off herbs! If you still don’t like it, try making simples with just one herb. Maybe your body needs 1 but not the others! Good luck! I’m lucky I love the taste!
Hi Anna!
Thank you for such a well detailed blog. How long after making the infusion before storing in the refrigerator? Also can I add a little honey? Thank you!
It is very forgiving in terms of when it goes in the fridge. I usually pop it in after straining it- so after it infuses overnight. But there have been plenty of times when I have totally forgotten about it and strained it almost 24 hours later and then put it in the fridge. Except for having an exceptionally strong taste, its been just fine! I personally don’t add any sweetener because I have an egg quality issue so I avoid any sugars, sweeteners, or sweetener replacements that might spike my insulin! Its up to you how to manage your own diet!
Hi! If I add red clover should/can I still use oat straw? I have a history of ectopic pregnancies with no apparent problems with my tubes! Thanks!! (Congrats on your miracles, & thank you for the hope you bring!)
Also, the one ndbags seem huge!How long do they last?
A long time!!! At least a month or two!
It’s up to you! Whichever herbs sound like they will be the most helpful for you!!
I have had surgery to remove fibroids. After the surgery one of my tubes is blocked and the other is questionable. Doctors have said it is impossible to get pregnant. Can the red clover tea help to unblock my tubes? I am afraid to drink this tea because I hear it can increase estrogen levels. Having too much estrogens can have fibroids come back. Please help…thank you.
I’m not a naturopath or doctor so I can’t advise you or speculate. But I personally never drank red clover because I also did not want to increase my estrogen levels. It might make more sense for someone who has low estrogen levels. I’m wishing you great luck in unblocking your tubes my dear!! I believe there is a great facebook group all about naturally unblocking tubes- I don’t have the link, but search in facebook for it and you will find it!
Thank you!
Hi Anna, I’ve been reading your blog for the last week. So much amazing content and research. A million thanks for all the time you’ve put in here.
Question—my acupuncturist doesn’t want me drinking things that are cold. Did you have that same advice? Do you heat this or drink it cold?
Hi Ann!! You are so welcome!! Your acupuncturist is smart. Drink room temperature or heat up like a tea. But, I’ll tell you, its a lot more palatable chilled from the fridge! But its more important to keep that uterus warm!!
Hey Anna!
I love this herbal tea. I think it taste pretty good and it definitely feels nourishing! I let mine steep for 5 hours. I know the longer I let it steep, the stronger the taste, but I was wondering if steeping it overnight increases the nutritional value when you drink it? I want to get the maximum nutrients this tea provides 🙂 thanks!
Yay! I’m so glad you like it!!!! I feel the same way- totally feels nourishing! I think it probably does get more, because the taste gets way more intense the longer you steep it. Once I steeped it for two days and it was not quite as delightful :-D. I almost always let it steep overnight because I’m too lazy to pour it after 5 hours 😛 I wouldn’t stress about it– maybe do a taste test and if you still like it longer do it longer?
Hi Anna! I’m wondering how you feel about purchasing a red raspberry tea that has nettles, etc. already in it. I’m guessing of course it’s best to make one’s own, but how important is it? Thanks!!
The real difference isn’t about if you buy it pre-mixed, its about how much you are steeping, i.e., a tea vs. an infusion. So, if you find a hippy midwife at a fair selling huge packs of pre-mixed red raspberry, nettles, and oatstraw (or whatever your preferred mix is) and she tells you to use about three cups in 2 qts of boiling water and steep for 4 hours then perfect! BUT if you are just buying little tea packets, you’d have to use like 40 of them to get the kind of nutrient value as the infusion- and that would be wicked expensive. BUT if you don’t want to do the whole infusion for some reason, go ahead and buy a pre-mixed tea, have a few a day, and just be mindful (i.e., imagine the nutrients from the tea warming your womb, helping your blood circulate, giving energy to your ovaries, etc.). Do what works for you! I hope that all makes sense!
Hi Anna, do happen to have a link to purchase the big mason jar containers with airtight clip lids that you show in the picture, in which you are storing the dried herbs or teas? I feel it is so hard to find good airtight jars for storage that are free of any harmful substances.
Thank you
Gazelle, Sorry I missed this! I buy them on Amazon! https://amzn.to/2MfQHxk
Hey Anna! After years of discouragement with low ovarian reserve, being told there is nothing medically that can be done, I can’t begin to tell you what an encouragement your blog has been 🙂 you’ve given me so much hope as my husband and I begin the journey to parenthood!
Quick question on the tea- do you heat it up or do you drink it cold from the fridge? I’ve tried it both ways and like it.
Lisa, Sorry I missed this!! I hope you have your miracle 🙂 I try to always drink it hot or room temperature for fertility reasons, but the truth is I really like the way it tastes cold :-).
can I eat the nettle plant if I’m in day 6-10 post ovulation, hoping to get pregnant, with history of one mc
I’ve been making and drinking this recipe for the past 4 months and I love it. But I had to stop due to having an open myomectomy. When might you think it be safe to start drinking it again? I know it’s a uterine tonic and my uterus currently has stitches and is healing so I don’t want to reintroduce anything that could hinder recovery. Any advice?
★★★★★
Lee-Anne,
Eeeek. Great question. I have no idea. Ask the doctor when you can have an orgasm, and maybe that is a good time?
BABY DUST!!
Hi Anna and all ladies reading this blog. Anna, we’ve been trying for 18 months with 2 losses and countless chemical pregnancies. I was genuinely losing hope. I read your article 3 months ago and immediately began to make small changes to my diet and lifestyle. Nothing huge, but getting rid of plastics, eliminating alcohol and caffeine, and your tea recipe 2x daily. I saw changes to my cycle immediately. I had tons of ewcm, my temps were more stable, and huge dip before ovulation as well as a huge rise immediately after. This is my 3rd month trying some of your methods and I’m sitting here writing this with my 8th bfp sitting on my lap. I’ve had 3 days of strong bfps and I’m in awe. Thank you for caring enough to put your knowledge out there for women like me. I’m grateful for the support and help. How can I support and bless you? I know you have a place for monetary donations… is that what would be most helpful at this time? Thank you again and prayers and blessings to all those trying to conceive.
PS. Do you have a recipe for pregnancy tea? I thought I saw one on your blog but can’t find it now! Thanks!
★★★★★
Jenna- YAY!!!!! Woohoo!!! What a wonderful testimony to clean living!! I’m so happy for you :-). Your story makes me so happy. And, it is my absolute pleasure to do this work. I couldn’t sleep if I didn’t!! I have a link on different ways to support the blog, thank you for thinking of me!!! https://www.tomakeamommy.com/support-to-make-a-mommy/
Any concern about lead levels in the ingredients?
HI JS!
Yes, for sure. Fricking lead is everywhere. Startwest and Mountain Rose Herbs both test for heavy metals and ensure they meet federal guidelines. I found info on Frontier’s website saying they test, but couldn’t see if they did for heavy metals.
I personally would still use all of these.
Anna
Hi Anna! I found your “all the things” list and I am game! We’ve been trying to conceive for 2 years, and it looks like we fall into the 10% of infertility where they don’t know why we aren’t successful. I’m committing to 4 months of doing “as many of the things” as I can! I’m wondering how long each of the herbs listed last (until you run out). I know you don’t personally use the Red Clover Blossoms, but I’m trying to figure out how much I should order. Thanks so much and congratulations on your two miracles!
Lindsay,
Thank you!! Glad you are game and hope this is the magic you need!! The big bags I link to, or the big bags from Mountain Rose herbs last a while. I can’t remember exactly how long though, I am sorry! But if you have extras you can drink the nettles and red raspberry and oatstraw in your third trimester as an infusion!
Hi Anna
I have hypothyroid and I had one chemical pregnancy. I am thinking to start on red raspberry leaf tea. Do you see any issues as I have hypothyroid?
Can I add a cream to this tea (specifically nut pods) and still yield the same nourishing effects?
Hi, thanks for this.
I read somewhere you shouldnt drink nettle leaf tea in your 2ww because of contractions. So Im a little confused. Can I drink during 2ww?
Hi! Love your blog! I’m going to have my first IVF cycle next month. Would you recommend drinking this herbal infusion all the way through the process or should I stop at a certain point during the cycle? Like after embryo transfer or after confirmation that implantation was successful? Thank you for your advice 🙂
I started using it and had a crazy allergic reaction where my gums turned fire engine red! Have you heard of that before?
I’m already on a high does of vitamins for fertility… can you recommend something mild to support PCOS.
Can you add lemon and honey to drink this chilled?
Hi Anna, I have ordered all the herbs and ready to make the tea. Can my hubby take this tea with me, he loves tea. Any recommendations of make tea for infertility. Thank you
Hi Anna, thank you so much for all the information you are providing. Your story is very inspiring and gives a lot of hope. I have a question regarding the teas. You wrote that you stopped drinking the nettle leaf tea as well as the raspberry leaf tea once you were pregnant and continued during the last trimester. What kind of teas did you drink during your pregnancy? Only the oat straw? Thank you!
Hey Anna! How big should the cup be? I am finding hard to find the exact measurement, so if you have the amount of herbs in grams or the like, so that I can weigh them, that would be nice. Loves to you!
Hi Anna – loved reading your blog’s I am having IVF troubles – Low AMH, thyroid low. I wanted to also ask if red raspberry leaf ok after ovulation as i’ve read that it’s best not to drink during 2ww?
Thank you
Lisa

Hi Anna! I’ve been reading your blog for quite sometime & always truly appreciate your suggestions. I recently went to a local herb store and explained i wanted a mix of tea to help balance my hormones. She made me this exact blend. It was great & loved it. I went back and she was out of red raspberry, she suggested Mugwort. The note i read about it the more i don’t want to drink it. Have you heard of mugwort? I’m in my TWW and very hesitant about mugwort. Thanks & would love your feedback! TIA!
thanks so much. Love your blog. How many cups of oatstraw tea can u safely drink during pregnancy? will it help lower blood pressure?
How many successes has this tea gotten in pregnancy
