Can pregnant women drink Radix and Rhizoma Bambusae?

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 drink Ephedra during pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

The Tribulus terrestris is an ingredient of traditional Chinese medicine, and pregnant women should be able to drink it. It has no impact on the fetus. If medication is needed during pregnancy, it is best to choose drugs with traditional Chinese medicine ingredients. They may take longer to work, but they are safer. It is okay to eat, but everything should be in moderation. It is better to eat less during pregnancy, but it is recommended to eat more as the delivery approaches. This is because it helps the delivery to be easier and ensures there is enough strength during childbirth.
