Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Sorry for your fetal loss.
Placental insufficiency and decreased liquor in post term pregnancy can lead to perinatal mortality.
Ultrasound helps in finding out the possible cause for intrauterine fetal death.
Fenugreek tea itself may not be responsible for fetal death.
In next pregnancy better to be careful from the beginning and do not allow the pregnancy to go postdated.
Take care.
I find this answer helpful
