Had really bad acidity yesterday and my hand automatically reached for pudin hara like I always do, but then stopped because im pregnant now (9 weeks). Is it safe to take during pregnancy or should I avoid? dont want to take anything without checking.
I wouldnt take any of these on my own during pregnancy, even the ayurvedic ones. Better to ask your gynac before taking pudin hara because not everything is automatically safe. For everyday gas i just used food and walking instead.
Beta i know we trust these home things, but during pregnancy even these should be asked to the doctor first. For mild gas, ajwain or jeera water is gentler. For anything stronger, please confirm with your gynac.
People assume herbal means safe but in pregnancy thats not always true. Best to just check with your gynac before taking pudin hara. They might suggest a simpler safe option for the gas instead.
Honestly i avoided self medicating anything in pregnancy, herbal included. For gas i did jeera water, small meals and walking. If that didnt help i asked my doctor for something safe rather than taking pudin hara myself.
