I used to do oil pulling every morning before pregnancy for my gums. Now im 4 months along and not sure if i should continue. Is it safe to do na, or better to stop?
Actually yaar, oil pulling with cold-pressed coconut oil is super safe and actually helps with gum bleeding. Just make sure you don't swallow any of it!
I've been wanting to try this because my gums have started bleeding when I brush! Does it actually help reduce the bleeding? Let me know if anyone has tried it.
I asked my hospital's dental team about this, and they said oil pulling is perfectly fine as long as you use clean oil and don't swallow it. But they always suggest a proper dental checkup anyway.
It's a safe natural remedy, but make sure you don't skip your regular doctor visits. Since hormone issues like thyroid can affect gums, keep your doctor updated on your routine.
It is safe, but make sure it doesn't trigger your morning sickness or nausea, as the texture of oil can be tough. Keep your oral hygiene clean as it affects your overall health.
Honestly, the smell of oil in the morning made me want to puke in my first trimester! If u have the stomach for it, go ahead, but my lazy self just sticks to brushing and mouthwash now.
Yes, it is safe and great for oral hygiene. Just swish a tablespoon of organic coconut oil for 10 minutes in the morning, spit it in the trash, and brush normally.
