You can change some of the 'unproven' uses to proven.
When we have bleeding bad enough to not ignore, but not bad enough to require medical attention, I treat it with yarrow, as many people did during battles, when they were bleeding.
First of all, never put yarrow on a cut until it's been flushed really, really well, or else the dirt will be trapped in it when it puckers it closed.
I bruise fresh leaves, and apply directly, letting it be held for a while. Then, remove, put new bruised leaves, because it's will no longer be bleeding at this point, and wrap the area, leaving the new, clean herb in place, under the bandage. Later in the day, it can be unwrapped and shouldn't give any trouble, and should not infect.
Someone else may not get these results, but I always do, and, of course, if there is anything odd about the wound; if it's more serious than not; or if the person reacts, they should seek medical attention.
Mine are the white flowering variety.
They were also a strewing herb, at one point. Drop on the floor, and walk on it, for pine scenting. I don't, but I'm sure that at one time, especially, this had quite an appeal!
