It has strong effects of activating blood circulation, removing blood stasis and relieving depression, and is often used in the treatment of dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, irregular menstruation and postpartum stasis; however, if saffron is brewed into water for drinking or medicines containing saffron during menstruation, it will result in abnormal changes of menstrual flow and menstruation period, and is therefore not recommended to use saffron during menstruation.
