Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

White Dead Nettle Flower (Lamium album) has a long history of traditional use in European herbal medicine, particularly for supporting the female reproductive system, including the uterus. Historically, it was employed to help with menstrual issues such as excessive menstrual bleeding, irregular periods, and as a general uterine tonic. Herbalists valued it for its purported astringent and anti-inflammatory properties, which were thought to help tone and soothe the uterine tissues and reduce excessive menstrual flow. Most of the evidence for these uses is anecdotal and based on centuries of folk medicine rather than modern clinical trials. While some laboratory studies have examined the general anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of Lamium album extracts, there is little to no robust clinical data specifically validating its effects on uterine health in humans. The traditional use of White Dead Nettle for the uterus is recognized in several herbal compendia and texts, but it has not been substantiated by high-quality scientific research to date. In summary, the use of White Dead Nettle Flower to support the uterus is justified primarily by traditional knowledge rather than scientific evidence, and any claims regarding its efficacy should be viewed in the context of historical rather than modern clinical understanding.
