One option for dosage is 10-40 drops in water or juice two to three times a day as needed with hormonal imbalance.
When To Not Take Placenta Medicine:
Placenta should not be taken if the body is fighting off a common cold, flu, or infection, or if you have chills, fever, sneezing, aches, flushed cheeks, dificulty sleeping, hot palms and feet or night sweats. If you get a breast infection (mastitis), the capsules should not be taken. If any of these should occur, stop taking the capsules until it has cleared the body.
Storage:
Placenta tincture has a long shelf life and may also be used for hormonal balancing from PMS to menopause.
If kept in a cool, dry place, placenta tincture should last indefinitely, though if it smells foul, it may have turned.
Other Details:
The first stage of the tincture process takes roughly 45 minutes. The mixture will then sit in a protected area for six weeks. The final stage of the process takes roughly 30 minutes.
Placenta tincture is made by taking all or part of a fresh placenta and blending it with high potency alcohol. This mixture is stored in a glass jar for 6 weeks in a cool dark environment. The final product is made by straining off the placenta solids, and what remains is a very potent tincture. A liquor is then added to enhance the sweet smell of the tincture.
