i usually add methi dana in my cooking and also for my hair. but someone told me it can cause heat in body during pregnancy. im 20 weeks. is it actually safe to keep having or should i stop? pls clarify.
Oh, I read somewhere that methi can trigger contractions, so I completely stopped eating it out of fear! Even a little bit in tadka made me anxious. If you're worried like me, just skip it for a few months to be safe.
Methi seeds are generally safe in very small quantities when used as a spice in your daily cooking. I had a smooth normal delivery and ate regular home-cooked food throughout. Just avoid consuming raw methi or large amounts of methi water.
I had thyroid issues so I was super careful about everything I ate. While methi in food is fine, medicinal doses can sometimes affect uterine contractions or hormone levels. Better to stick to regular doctor checkups and follow their customized diet chart.
I had early bleeding complications, so my doctor strictly asked me to avoid concentrated herbs like methi seeds or carom seeds (ajwain) as they can stimulate the uterus. Please consult your gynac before trying any home remedies with these.
A little methi in my aloo-methi or tempering for dal tastes amazing and is totally fine! But don't go drinking concentrated methi water, that's just too much. Stick to standard food portions and enjoy your meals!
Using methi seeds as a spice in food is perfectly safe and normal. However, taking concentrated methi supplements or large amounts of methi tea is not recommended as it can stimulate uterine activity. Keep it simple and eat normal meals.
