This is a weird one but my mouth feels off and im noticing bad breath even after brushing. Periods are not due yet. Did anyone get this as an early sign?
Dry mouth and breath issues are common early signs. Try rinsing your mouth with warm salt water or chewing a cardamom (elaichi) seed. But if you have painful gums or bleeding, please consult a dentist or your gynac.
Yes, it is quite common due to hormonal changes and morning sickness. Also, make sure to get your routine thyroid and dental checkups done. Mention this to your gynac during your regular visit.
Yaar, actually yes! Early pregnancy hormones can reduce saliva, which makes your mouth dry and causes bad breath. Just drink lots of water and chew on some mint, it gets better.
Having PCOS made my hormone levels fluctuate wildly, and yes, dry mouth and bad breath can happen due to early pregnancy hormonal changes. However, it's always good to check with your doctor or dentist to rule out other dental issues.
I know how annoying and embarrassing this can be, but please don't feel bad. Your body is dealing with a massive rush of progesterone, which slows down digestion and affects your mouth. Just take it easy.
