Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is it good for pregnant women to eat watermelon seeds?Doctor's answer:
Hello, pregnant women can eat watermelon seeds. However, we should also pay attention to the disadvantages of eating watermelon seeds. First, eating watermelon seeds may cause dental damage and periodontal disease. Additionally, oral contact with unclean seed shells can also lead to illness. Watermelon seeds have a high fat content, and eating too many can easily cause a feeling of fullness. If overly full, it may affect normal meals and the intake of nutrients during pregnancy. Moreover, eating too many watermelon seeds can easily cause internal heat, leading to mouth ulcers and canker sores. Therefore, pregnant women should not eat too many watermelon seeds and should also pay attention to drinking water.
