Can essential oils be used during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can I use essential oils during pregnancy preparation?

Doctor's answer:

During pregnancy preparation, essential oils are not completely off-limits, but it is best to avoid them during the first three months of pregnancy to prevent the risk of miscarriage. In fact, many essential oils can be helpful in aiding conception. When using essential oils through aromatherapy, since the dosage is very low, it is actually quite safe. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecologist at the hospital for a leukorrhea test to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
