Do Green Tea Supplements Affect The Menstrual Cycle?

Hi I started taking green tea capsules about 2 weeks ago for the health benefits. I had a baby 6 months ago and feel like my hormones still arnt right. My period is 3 days late and took s few pregnancy tests and all were negative. Could those green tea supplements effect my period?

I have gone through your case and I can understand your concern. If you enjoy green tea, there's no harm in drinking a cup or two a day while you're trying to conceive. But don't expect it to significantly increase your odds of getting pregnant.While compounds found in green tea offer some protective health benefits, research hasn't shown that they boost fertility. Some studies says that green tea supplements promotes slight improvement in menstrual cycle.
