I get bad headaches these days and usually apply amrutanjan but now im scared if its ok during pregnancy. Thoda confused honestly. Anyone used it while pregnant?
Yaar, honestly, for these kind of balms, my gynac said to just check the ingredients. Some have strong menthol or camphor that might not be great. Actually, for headache, she told me to just use a cold compress or rub a little plain coconut oil. Better safe than sorry, na?
From what I've heard, generally, topical balms like Amrutanjan are often advised against during pregnancy due to ingredients like camphor and menthol, which can be absorbed. It's best to stick to simpler remedies for pain relief like cold packs or just rest. For any persistent pain, consult your gynac.
Oh, this is a good question! I'm planning my pregnancy, and I keep thinking about all these little everyday things we use. I usually just use Amrutanjan for mild headaches. I guess it's always safest to ask the doctor before using anything, even topical ones. Thanks for asking this!
I personally avoided using anything like Amrutanjan or Vicks during my pregnancy because I was just too scared to use anything without doctor's explicit approval. It's best to ask your own gynac, they'll know if the ingredients are safe for you. Don't take risks.
Beta, it is always better to be careful during pregnancy. These strong balms sometimes have ingredients that are not good. For headache, you can try applying a paste of sandalwood or just resting in a dark room. Always ask the doctor before using anything you are unsure about.
