Herbs, Myths, and Medicine: Healing or Hearsay?

Throughout history, people have turned to plants and home remedies to support reproductive health — from easing menstrual discomfort to encouraging labor or lactation. But where does tradition end and potential risk begin? In this episode, we explore the complex intersection of herbs, myths, and medicine: what history suggests, what science has examined, and what concerns call for serious caution. We’ll also consider how stigma and barriers to health care have shaped the ways people have turned to self-treatment, and why understanding this history remains important today.
