We've been trying since 4 months and my MIL keeps telling me to stop eating papaya completely. I love it honestly so just wanna know is it really a problem while ttc or is it only after you conceive? Confused na.
The concern is mainly with raw green papaya, not the ripe one. I avoided it just to be safe while trying. Honestly its easy to skip and pick another fruit, but doctor advice is best.
Beta, our elders always avoid raw or semi ripe papaya as they believe it brings heat. Fully ripe one in small amount is usually okay. But best confirm with your own doctor before deciding.
