Someone in my family suggested boron for some bone thing and now im confused if its even safe in pregnancy. I dont want to take anything random without knowing. Has anyone asked their gynac about this?
Boron? Hmm, I haven't heard of that one. My gynac only recommended iron, calcium, and folic acid. Are you thinking of taking a supplement with boron in it? I think it's always safest to just stick to what your doctor prescribes. What made you ask about boron?
Oh, please be super careful about what you put into your body during pregnancy. If it's not a common prenatal vitamin or something your gynac specifically said, then it's probably best to avoid it. I was so careful with everything because of my severe morning sickness. Just ask your doctor directly, seriously. Don't risk it.
Boron? No, beta, please don't consume boron supplements or anything with high boron content during pregnancy. It's generally advised to avoid it unless specifically told by your doctor for a specific medical reason, which is rare. Stick to your prenatal vitamins and doctor's advice. Better safe than sorry with supplements.
I felt so overwhelmed with all the 'what to eat, what not to eat' during my pregnancy. For something like boron, which isn't a regular prenatal nutrient, I would strongly advise against it unless your doctor has specifically told you to take it. It's better to be very cautious and only take what's prescribed for your baby's health.
Honestly, just stick to your prescribed prenatal vitamins. Unless your doctor has explicitly told you to take boron for a medical condition, it's best to avoid it. There's enough to manage without adding unknown supplements to the mix. A quick call to your gynac can clear any doubts fast.
