Clary Sage Essential Oil

Due to its ability to cause uterine contractions, it can also assist in the birth of the placenta and reduce the for post-partum haemorrhage (excessive bleeding).

Clary sage is known for its to help induce labour. It's believed that inhaling clary sage essential oil or using it in massage during late pregnancy may trigger the release of oxytocin, the hormone responsible for initiating labour contractions.
