Can pregnant women eat saffron?

For women, many people choose to eat saffron to nourish their bodies, especially for women who have just become pregnant, they all hope to nourish their bodies through Chinese medicine conditioning so that they can have a healthy baby. However, in addition to its well-known effects such as promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, saffron also has unknown side effects that will have a certain impact on the human body. Next, we will start from the effects of saffron and discuss whether pregnant women can eat saffron.

For safety reasons, pregnant women should not drink or eat saffron, and should avoid smelling it if possible.

Because saffron has a very good effect in promoting blood circulation, it can also excite the uterus and promote uterine contraction. Pregnant women may be at risk of miscarriage if they use saffron in large doses, but this is not 100% likely to happen. Because of the risk, it is recommended to ban its use. Any drug used in large doses by pregnant women can cause miscarriage, so the risks of using saffron by pregnant women are the same as those of other drugs.

As for whether pregnant women can smell saffron, I think they should be cautious and try to stay away from it. Saffron isn't so potent that smelling it would be risky, but it's better to be cautious.

Saffron is often used as an abortion drug in TV dramas, which is very wrong. Any tonic, medicine, or even certain food used by pregnant women in large doses may cause miscarriage.

You can use saffron to nourish your body before getting married or before getting pregnant, and it will not cause infertility in the future. Some information shows that saffron can be used to treat certain infertility problems.

Saffron has a strong effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. It helps mothers to expel blood stasis in the body, regulate endocrine system, detoxify and beautify.
