My MIL keeps suggesting shatavari saying its good for women. Im 5 months along and not sure if ayurvedic things are safe right now. Did anyone take it while pregnant?
Beta shatavari is known more for after delivery, for milk supply, in our families. Even then I would not start any herb in pregnancy without asking the doctor. Ayurvedic does not always mean safe for the baby na.
I love natural stuff but in pregnancy I held back on all herbs and tonics. I only resumed shatavari postpartum after my doctor okayed it for feeding. During pregnancy, ask first, dont assume.
Please dont take any ayurvedic supplement during pregnancy on your own. Even the herbal ones can interact with things. Always clear it with your gynac first, that's the safe way.
