Mountain lady's mantle

Alchemilla montana

This plant pertains to the species of the Alchemilla xanthochlora, along with the more well known Common Lady's Mantle. This species has been used traditionally to alleviate female disorders such as menstrual irregularities and menopausal symptoms. It's also said to have astringent properties and help with treating diarrhoea and stop bleeding. Some small studies have suggested a confirmation of these effects, although more clinical studies are needed.
