My MIL gave me some jeshtimadhu for cough saying its natural and safe. But im 4 months pregnant n want to be careful with anything i put in mouth now. Anyone knows if its ok during these months?
Some herbs that seem harmless need care in pregnancy, licorice is one people are told to limit. I wouldnt take it regularly. Please run it by your doctor before making it a habit.
Beta jeshthamadh, mulethi, we used it for throat and cough in tiny amounts. But in pregnancy I would be careful with such herbs and not take regularly. Please ask your doctor before using it, herbs can be tricky during this time.
I love natural remedies but I got cautious with herbal things during pregnancy. Licorice taken a lot is something people say to limit. For occasional throat soothing maybe, but honestly check with your gynac first.
