At home we use methi dana in food and sometimes soaked water also. Now I am 10 weeks and suddenly doubting every kitchen thing. Did your gynac say anything about fenugreek?
It's so important to be careful with everything, especially after going through so much. From what I've heard and read, fenugreek seeds are generally not recommended in larger doses during pregnancy as they *can* potentially stimulate the uterus, which we definitely want to avoid. Please consult your doctor; it's always best to get their specific guidance for your situation.
Hey girl, don't stress too much about every little thing, okay? Fenugreek seeds, or methi, are generally fine in small amounts, like in your regular sabzi. But consuming them in large quantities, especially as supplements, is a big no-no. So just stick to normal food amounts and you'll be fine. If you're really worried, ask your gynac.
Methi seeds are used in a lot of Indian cooking, so in small amounts in your food, it's generally considered safe. However, large medicinal doses or supplements of fenugreek are often advised against during pregnancy as they can stimulate contractions. Stick to natural food amounts, don't take it as a herb or supplement without doctor's approval.
I totally understand why you'd be concerned about anything you put into your body during this precious time. Fenugreek seeds are tricky because while they're natural, they can have potent effects. My heart says, when in doubt, always err on the side of caution for your little one. Please talk to your doctor before consuming them in any significant quantity.
I had thyroid issues during pregnancy, so my doctor was very particular about what I ate. Fenugreek seeds can interfere with thyroid function, and also some say they can cause contractions. So, it's not something to take lightly. You should definitely discuss this with your gynac, especially if you have any health conditions or are considering it beyond normal cooking amounts.
