Good day. Thought that I was post menopausal at age 57. Did not have a period for 13 months. Started off with Spirulina, chlorella and adaptogen mix with ashwaganda, gynostemma, red ginseng, reishi mushroom, yellow maca, black maca en red maca. Since then my hot flushes went away and my period returned. Was even ovulating. Is it normal that these supplements can balance it in such a way that you are not past menopausal. All the menopause symptoms stopped about a week or two after I started with the above supplements.

How long have you been taking these supplements?:

- 1-3 months

Have you experienced any other changes in your health since starting the supplements?:

- Increased energy

How would you describe your menstrual cycle since it returned?:

- Very light

Did you have any other menopause symptoms before starting the supplements?:

- Hot flashes

Have you consulted a healthcare provider regarding these changes?:

- Yes, once

What is your current stress level?:

- High — feeling overwhelmed

Do you have any pre-existing health conditions?:

- None

Yes, herbs/supplements can influence hormones, but after 12 months no periods = menopause. So period coming back at 57 is NOT considered normal → needs checking. Ashwagandha + Maca + Red Ginseng → act as adaptogens + mild hormone modulators They can stimulate ovaries / estrogen effect So But bleeding restarted In Ayurveda & modern medicine: After menopause, any bleeding = “Rakta dushti / abnormal bleeding” Must rule out Uterus lining thickening Polyps / other issues So please do ultrasound + gynec check once (don’t ignore) What to do now Stop strong hormonal herbs temporarily:l Maca Ginseng High-dose mixes If you want safe Ayurvedic support: Shatavari → 1 tsp with milk (cooling, safe) Guduchi → for balance Supplements reduced symptoms But period returning after menopause is not normal → needs check Use mild cooling herbs, avoid strong hormone stimulators

Your age is 57yrs and you did not have your cycles for 13 months. This is termed as menopause. You have had sudden bleeding due to taking the mentioned herbs which can be termed as perimenopausal bleeding. Menopause cannot be reversed. Most important thing is that you first need to get a detailed evaluation physically and also USG to rule out any other conditions that might have caused the bleeding. Also you shall note down the pattern of your cycles that have reacured. If you experience regular cycles for more than 13 months a detailed gynecological evaluation with hormonal assay is must. For your menopausal syndrome symptoms you can take Syp. Evecare forte 3 tsp twice a day after food for next 2-3 yrs.
