Interactions with Pregnancy
(excerpt from Scientific Study for Malunggay)
11.1. Lactation
In women during postpartum days 3-5 (after giving birth to preterm infants), supplementation of 250mg moringa oleifera leaf extract twice daily appears to increase milk production in a time dependent manner on the first day of supplementation (31% increase over placebo) as well as the second (48%) and third (165%) day.[127]
Appears to be a galactogogue
11.2. Contraception
Moringa oleifera appears to be traditionally used as an aborifacient to abort pregnancies in the early stages, and oral ingestion of 175mg/kg of the leaves to pregnant rats for 5-10 days was able to induce abortions in all drug-treated rats.[9]
Appears to have quite potent anti-fertility actions in pregnant rats, and may be able to induce abortions
Just FYI
