My saas keeps saying papaya is a strict no but i used to love it before. Matlab is it really that risky or only the raw one? Bit confused yaar, anyone clear on this?
I always tell everyone here, raw or semi-ripe papaya is a big NO because of the latex in it. Ripe papaya is technically okay, but why take the risk? Better to stick to other safe fruits like apples and oranges.
It is better to avoid raw or semi-ripe papaya because it can cause contractions. Fully ripe papaya in very small amounts is sometimes okay, but to be completely safe, many moms just avoid it altogether. Take care dear.
Honestly, with my busy schedule I didn't want any health scares, so I just blacklisted papaya entirely. It is much easier to eat apples or bananas instead of worrying about whether the papaya is fully ripe or not. Save your time and skip it.
Unripe papaya contains latex which can trigger uterine contractions, so definitely avoid that. Ripe papaya is fine but since it's hard to judge the ripeness perfectly, doctors usually advise avoiding it altogether just to keep things safe.
I have heard so many mixed things about this too! Some say ripe is fine but raw is bad, but honestly, I think when my turn comes I will just avoid it completely to be stress-free. What did your gynac suggest?
Oh I was so confused about this last month! My MIL strictly said no papaya at all, even ripe ones, and it made me so anxious because I had eaten a small piece earlier. Did anyone else accidentally eat it and feel fine?
