My mom always said avoid papaya in pregnancy but i had a little raw papaya sabzi at a relative's place yesterday without thinking. Now im slightly worried. Is raw one really a problem?
Absolutely avoid raw papaya, as it has latex that can cause contractions. If you accidentally ate a lot and feel any stomach pain or cramps, please call your doctor immediately. Better to stay safe with ripe fruits like apples.
No, raw papaya is not safe at all, it's known to induce contractions. When you are busy, just stick to safe and quick snacks like apples or dry fruits. Don't take any unnecessary risks.
It is absolutely not safe. Raw papaya has enzymes that can lead to uterine contractions and miscarriage. Cut it out of your diet entirely, no questions asked.
Please do not eat raw papaya at all, it can be very dangerous. Even if you crave it, always check with your gynac first before eating anything doubtful. Safety of your baby is first priority.
Raw or semi-ripe papaya contains a high concentration of latex and papain, which can stimulate uterine contractions. Scientific research and doctor advice both state it should be strictly avoided. If you have concerns, always ask your gynac.
My mother always warned me that raw papaya is very heat-producing and bad for the womb. Our doctor also confirmed it is unsafe. Please avoid it and consult your doctor if you have any worries.
Hey, strictly avoid raw papaya during these months! It's a big no-no. But listen, if you accidentally ate a tiny piece in a curry, don't stress too much, just avoid it completely from now on.
I was also told by everyone to strictly avoid raw papaya because of the risks. I am currently 6 months pregnant and haven't touched it. Is ripe papaya safe to eat though, or should we avoid that too?
