Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Morinda, particularly Morinda citrifolia (commonly known as noni), is used in traditional medicine systems across Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands. Its use for bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis) is not widespread but does appear in some ethnobotanical references, where it is occasionally mentioned as part of herbal remedies for urinary disorders, including bedwetting. Historical records indicate that Morinda root or fruit extracts have been incorporated into polyherbal formulas aimed at addressing bladder function and general urinary tract health. However, these references are scattered and often lack detailed documentation of efficacy or mechanism.

There is no significant scientific evidence supporting the use of Morinda for bedwetting. No clinical trials or pharmacological studies specifically address its efficacy for this condition. The bulk of evidence remains anecdotal and rooted in traditional practice, with only indirect support from studies examining Morinda’s possible anti-inflammatory or tonic effects. Therefore, while there is some traditional precedent, the evidence is weak (rated 1/5) and unsupported by modern scientific research. Individuals interested in using Morinda for bedwetting should be aware that its efficacy is unproven and should consult healthcare professionals before use.
