Cordyceps for pregnancy

yes my mil also bought for me, hearing stories from aunties that's good for pregnancy to boost immunity etc.. I took once and check with my tcm. she's strongly against it saying that it will cause excessive blood etc. and she has patients that almost can't make it during delivery as there are sudden gust of excessive blood. better check with your gynae or tcm

Cordyceps is a big no no unless I have clearance from TCM doctor to take. It is a herb that will enhance blood flow, which may cause miscarriage in my opinion. Similarly ginseng and other blood flow thinning/enhancing herbs. Especially if you already have some bleeding. Pls be careful.

Better not to take chinese medicine if you unsure can consume or not. I avoid almost all the Chinese herbs cos I scare and FTM. I take chicken essence almost daily. you can read up brands chicken essence they started safe during pregnancy so I dare to take.

Please check with your gynae or tcm! Listen to your mummy instincts. If she “insists” again, be firm with her else she will bully you after delivery… then by that time you will be too weak to standup for yourself.

hi dear, since u had bleeding and feel that your pregnancy not smooth than its better not to take any chinese medicine just to be safe. Perhaps instead of chinese medicine you can consider to take chicken essence.

best to check with your gynea and tcm. I was advice by gynea not to take bird nest due to asthma and tcm also advise schedule to take ginseng n to avoid hashima.

usually cannot take these sort of 补herbs during pregnancy at all. if its hard to convince your mil, best to see a gd tcm so that you can get green light 😆

I was advised against herbs (including cordyceps) from the start of my pregnancy.. so i never took it before.. but it was also never sth i like 😂

it's better to check with your gynae if in doubt then just tell your mil that it's gynae advice

it's best not to take Chinese herbs but you can check with your gynae for advice
