Raspberry leaf tea is reputed to ease menstrual cramps. The herbal components in raspberry leaf tea are believed to have a relaxing effect on uterine muscles and offer advantages to the female reproductive system. This relaxation of muscles may alleviate uterine tension, resulting in decreased pain and discomfort during menstruation. Furthermore, raspberry leaf tea is purported to help regulate the menstrual cycle and reduce excessive bleeding, which can be advantageous for individuals experiencing heavy or prolonged periods. <ref>{{Cite web |last=Maude |first=Myrtle and |title=Raspberry Leaf Tea Benefits Female: Health and Wellness Unveiled |url=https://myrtleandmaude.com/blogs/news/raspberry-leaf-tea-benefits-female-health-and-wellness-unveiled |access-date=2024-04-29 |website=Myrtle and Maude |language=en}}</ref> |

The red raspberry leaf (Rubus idaeus), also known as garden raspberry leaf, is produced by the deciduous raspberry plant and used in folk remedies.[1]
Use in pregnancy
[edit]Traditional lore suggests that pregnant women use raspberry leaf tea, especially as an aid in delivery.[2] However, scientific research has found little to no evidence to support this claim.[3] Most of the evidence available is anecdotal, and a 2009 review article stressed concern at the lack of evidence for safety and efficacy and called recommendations of its use "questionable".[3]
