The Hormonal Transition

During pregnancy the placenta produces large amounts of hormones that help maintain a healthy pregnancy. After birth, those hormone levels drop rapidly and can take several weeks to return. Consuming the placenta has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for thousands of years to help as a nutritional and hormonal bridge during this transition. It can help mothers feel more balanced in the early postpartum period as well as help lower risk for postpartum depression
