Hello doctor, I had my period from the 31st of last month to 6th of this month. However, when the bleeding stopped on the 6th I continued to spot from then until now (10th). I started using Moringa leaf extract for the first time three weeks ago and was drinking the tea almost every day. Also, I was partially fasting (I consumed water, fruits, vegetables) no solid foods for the past three weeks.
Hello. Moringa leaf extract does not contain any hormonal active ingredients that I can see from my research, just very high in vitamins and nutrients. This particular compound is not well studied as far as its effect on the menstrual cycle, so it is difficult to relate the changes in your cycle and bleeding pattern to that alone. The most likely cause of the spotting is that you did not ovulate this cycle and the lining of the uterus did not stabilize like it does after ovulation, which is why you are having light spotting. The partial three week fast likely put some stress on your body and may have contributed to the change in your cycle. If you are sexually active and not using birth control, a pregnancy test would be prudent.
