I have pcod and finally pregnant after a long wait, around 8 weeks now. Someone told me to cut dairy because of pcod but i love my morning milk and curd. Is it really a problem during pregnancy? Anyone with pcod here?
Yes, you can absolutely have dairy, just keep it in moderation! Milk and curd are great for your calcium needs right now. Just watch out for heavy sweets or high-sugar dairy products! 🥛✨
Honestly, I am in my 3rd trimester and my baby is basically made of the dahi and chaas I've been having! With PCOD, some people avoid dairy, but my doctor said normal home curd is totally fine. Just don't go eating tubs of ice cream!
Dairy is fine during a PCOD pregnancy as long as you focus on low-fat, unsweetened options like plain yogurt or skimmed milk. It provides essential calcium and protein. Just keep an eye on your blood sugar levels and confirm with your gynac.
Having home-made fresh curd or buttermilk is very good for digestion, especially if you have PCOD. I always prefer these natural, simple items over processed dairy. But if you feel heavy bloating or any discomfort, make sure to consult your doctor.
Look, having a glass of milk or a bowl of fresh curd daily is perfectly fine and good for calcium. You don't need to cut out dairy completely just because of PCOD unless your doctor specifically told you to. Just keep it simple and avoid high-fat cream and cheese.
