Constipation has become so bad in this pregnancy, im 5 months. Used to take isabgol before for this. Can I still have it now or not? thoda worried to take anything without asking.
My gynac explicitly said Isabgol is safe because it's a bulk-forming laxative. Just ensure you drink plenty of fluids throughout the day when taking it.
It is generally safe, but please ask your doctor before taking any natural remedies if you have a history of complications. Better to be 100% sure with your own gynac.
I checked on my pregnancy app and it said psyllium husk is safe as it's a natural fiber. It doesn't get absorbed into the bloodstream. It was a lifesaver for my pregnancy constipation!
Yes, Isabgol is safe for constipation. Just make sure you drink a full glass of water with it, otherwise it can make constipation worse. Don't take it daily though.
