Among the Yoruba, childbirth is considered a sacred and critical event, but it also carries risks. One of the most dangerous complications is postpartum hemorrhage, when bleeding continues after delivery instead of stopping naturally. Our forefathers in Yoruba land developed Ogun Bi Obinrin Bímọ Tan Ti Ẹjẹ Ko Tẹ́tẹ́ Dá, a traditional healing system designed to control excessive bleeding, restore the mother’s strength, and ensure long-term reproductive health.This remedy goes beyond simply stopping blood flow. Yoruba traditional medicine combines specialized plants and roots to ensure complete recovery. Elders believed that unresolved postpartum bleeding could be worsened in matter of time.
For countless years ago, Yoruba women relied on this system in times when hospitals and modern interventions were unavailable. Even today, families continue to use this knowledge as part of their cultural heritage and maternal care practices.

Symptoms of Postpartum Hemorrhage
Yoruba elders and traditional birth attendants (agbẹ́bí) observed certain signs that indicated the need for immediate intervention:
• Excessive vaginal bleeding after delivery, beyond normal lochia.
• Weakness, dizziness, or fainting due to blood loss.
• Persistent abdominal pain or cramping accompanied by bleeding.
• Restlessness or extreme fatigue following delivery.
• Anxiety or unusual fear regarding recovery.
Elders considered these signs serious and acted quickly with remedies for postpartum hemorrhage to prevent life-threatening outcomes.
How Our Forefathers Treated Postpartum Hemorrhage
Treatment was structured and comprehensive:
• Herbal decoctions to stop bleeding and restore uterine tone.
• Bathing or steaming the mother with selected leaves to strengthen circulation.
• Anointing the abdomen with protective herbal mixtures.
• Collecting herbs, roots, or barks at times of the day believed to enhance potency.
• Combining treatment with rest and dietary care to promote full recovery. Amongst the necessary leaf and barks which our forefathers used in treating postpartum hemorrhage are:
1) Ewe Botuje
2) Ewe Odundun
3) Ewe Iyeye
4) Eru Alamo
5) Egbo Apasa
6) Egbo Akoko

GET A-Z YORUBA HERBS PDF #3KDifferences Between Yoruba and Modern Postpartum Hemorrhage Treatment
While both Yoruba and modern systems aim to manage postpartum bleeding, their approaches differ:
1) Focus of healing —
Yoruba remedies emphasize physical stabilization, uterine strength, and spiritual protection; modern medicine uses pharmaceuticals, transfusions, or surgery.
2) Materials used —
Yoruba elders used herbs, leaves, and roots; modern medicine relies on synthetic drugs and clinical interventions.
3) Approach to recurrence —
Yoruba healing often includes spiritual cleansing and lifestyle guidance; modern treatment emphasizes ongoing monitoring and emergency protocols.
Safety First: Important Contraindications and Considerations
• Emergency conditions —
Excessive bleeding may require immediate hospital care; traditional remedies complement, not replace, modern intervention.
• Underlying health risks —
Mothers with anemia, hypertension, or other complications must use remedies under careful supervision.
• Quality of source —
Herbs from polluted areas are unsafe and must never be used.
