I love papaya and used to have it daily before pregnancy. Everyone in my house has totally banned it now saying its dangerous. Im in my 5th month, is ripe papaya really not allowed at all?
Main raw papaya bilkul avoid karti thi, latex wala issue hota hai. Ripe wala kabhi kabhi thoda kha leti thi without problem. If you're unsure, skip it, plenty of other fruits hai.
Beta humare ghar me papaya pregnancy me avoid hi karte hai, especially kachha wala. Ripe papaya thoda chalega par log fir bhi door rehte hai. Apni doctor se pooch lo, woh sahi guide karegi.
My gynac explained, raw or unripe papaya has latex which is the concern, that's the one to avoid. Fully ripe papaya in small amount is generally considered fine. But since you're asking, just confirm with your own doctor to be safe.
At home everyone strictly said no papaya during pregnancy, so I just avoided it fully and ate other fruits. It kept the elders calm too. Your doctor's word matters most though, ask once.
