Is it Ashwagandha Does it affect menstrual bleeding?
Hello.
I took ashwagandha for half a month, in the morning and in the evening 2 tablets with meals (as written in the instructions), I feel fine, but at this time women's days came three days later and now is the 8th day, there is still some bleeding, despite the fact that usually everything ends on the 6th and this is the first time I have this. Could it be because of ashwagandha?

The use of ashwagandha preparations may indirectly affect the menstrual cycle. Many studies indicate the effect of preparations on reducing stress levels, which may translate into an effect on fertility and sexuality by supporting the regulation of the menstrual cycle. However, it should be noted that the effect of adaptogens is individually determined and in the event of unusual effects, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
In case the bleeding persists or intensifies, I encourage you to consult a doctor. You can also take advantage of a teleconsultation in Polish arranged e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

I also encourage you to report any side effects of the drug. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over commercially available medicines. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:
