Medicinal Plant Use by Surinamese Immigrants in Amsterdam, the Netherlands: Results of a Pilot Market Survey[1] Though plant matter was often in poor condition, it was often also labelled, and this helped identification. Plants identified as for use in vaginal steaming included the following: Anacardium occidentale, Xylopia discreta, Cordia curassavica, Terminalia amazonia, Terminalia catappa, Phyllanthus amarus, Campomanesia aromatica, Syzygium cumini, Piper arboreum, Piper marginatum, Scoparia dulcis, Siparuna guianensis, and Lantana camara. The article notes that many of the plants used by Surinamese immigrants were for purely "magical" or ritualistic purposes. The article mentions that vaginal steaming is often used by Surinamese immigrants to attempt to improve their sex life, and that vaginal steaming is often performed post-birth in order to "clean out" and contract the vagina, and that many "fresh smelling herbs" were added to attempt to remove odor. Factors Impacting on the Menstrual Hygiene Among School-Going Asolescent Girls in Mongu District, Zambia[2] The Medicinal Plant Trade in Suriname[3] Plants identified as for use in vaginal steaming included the following: Campomanesia aromatica, Siparuna guianensis, Vismia guianensis, and Parkia pendula. The article mentioned that one of the main reasons that the herb trade is so profitable in Suriname is that many females, of all ethnicities, use vaginal steaming after giving birth and to tighten the vagina.

Many respondents claimed that herbs were more effective and had fewer side effects than conventional therapies. Unofortunately, this is, again, a self-reported study. This article mentions that spiritual baths were the most popular practice, and that the Surinamese winti belief strongly influenced plant use.
