Can pregnant women eat roast duck?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can pregnant women eat roasted duck?

Doctor's answer:

Pregnant women can eat roast duck. Pregnant women can eat roast duck, but it is not advisable to eat too much. Duck meat is sweet and slightly salty, with a slightly cool nature, and enters the spleen, stomach, lung, and kidney meridians. It has the functions of nourishing the yin of the five internal organs, clearing the heat of deficiency fatigue, replenishing blood and promoting diuresis, nourishing the stomach and generating fluid, and stopping cough and calming fright. However, during pregnancy and breastfeeding, it is best to eat less spicy, roasted, pickled, and other highly stimulating foods.
