My mom makes mukootti at home and wants to give me some as she says its good. But im not fully sure if its safe during these months. Anyone from Kerala who had it while pregnant, pls let me know.
I cant really say if its safe, I avoided all homemade kashayams in pregnancy just to be safe and stuck to plain things. For something like this I really think a quick word with your doctor is the way to go.
In our home mukkukooti type kashayam is given for cold and stuffy nose, but during pregnancy please dont take such herbal mixes on your own. Some herbs arent advised for pregnant women. Just ask your doctor first na, then it's safe.
Beta these traditional herbal preparations vary a lot and some ingredients may not suit pregnancy. We used it earlier for blocked nose, but I would say check with your gynac before having it now. Better safe.
I'd be careful with any herbal or homemade medicine in pregnancy honestly. Even natural things can react. Please run it by your doctor before taking mukootti, dont just go by what worked before pregnancy.
