== Special Precautions of Fenugreek ==
* Pregnancy : Fenugreek has been known to be helpful in inducing childbirth by stimulating uterine contractions. It is also known to reduce labour pain. But here’s a word of caution. Excess intake of fenugreek seeds during pregnancy could put you in risk of miscarriage or premature childbirth.
* Do not take fenugreek without first talking to your doctor if you have a bleeding or blood clotting disorder or diabetes. Fenugreek has been reported to affect blood clotting and blood sugar levels.
* Fenugreek may also interact with diabetes medications. Fenugreek may interact with medications that slow blood-clotting (Anticoagulant / Antiplatelet drugs).
