Question

We are ttc since couple months and my mom gives me kadukkai for digestion daily. Now im not sure if I should continue it while trying. Has anyone taken it during this time?

Haan, kadukkai ayurvedic toh hai, par conceiving ke time pe daily bina doctor se pooche nahi lena chahiye na. Sometimes strong herbs can affect your cycle. Better to ask an Ayurvedic doctor first.

I completely understand how stressful trying to conceive can be and how we want to try everything. But taking herbs like Kadukkai daily made me so anxious about side effects. Please talk to a proper gynac or ayurvedic practitioner before starting this.

Behn, ghar ke bade bolte hain ki ayurvedic cheezein thik hain, par bacche ke liye koshish karte samay har roz aisi garm cheezein nahi khani chahiye. Doctor se pooch kar hi kuch chalu karo, jaldi hi acchi khabar milegi.

Instead of spending on everyday herbal powders that might not be safe, just get a basic pre-conception checkup done at a local lab. My gynac just prescribed cheap folic acid tablets, which are much safer and medically proven.

Honestly, Kadukkai (Haritaki) can sometimes cause uterine contractions or excess heat, so taking it daily while trying to conceive is not recommended. It is always safer to stick to your prenatal vitamins and check with a doctor before taking herbal supplements.
