Patient's question:
I am three and a half months pregnant. I saw in a book that pregnant women should not eat aloe vera, which can lead to miscarriage, right? Some people say that she, who was pregnant, even ate aloe vera yogurt and had a miscarriage. Is it that serious? Should pregnant women not eat aloe vera?Doctor's answer:
Aloe vera is not an anti-abortion medication, but it is not recommended for pregnant women to take. Taking it may increase the risk of miscarriage because aloe vera can cause congestion in the pelvic organs of women and promote uterine contractions, making it easy to cause abdominal pain and lead to miscarriage in women. However, it is not a medication for treating miscarriage. If I take a small amount, it is generally not a problem. I cannot take too much, as it can easily lead to miscarriage. I want to know if you don't want this child right now?
