What are the nutritional benefits of pregnant women eating pine nuts?

Patient's question:

I got married last year, and recently I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain. It's especially bad during my period, and I'm very worried it might affect my fertility. Also, I'm extremely sensitive to cold and coldness.
Is there any nutritional value in pine nuts for pregnant women?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, general pine nuts have the functions of nourishing yin, moisturizing body fluids, replenishing qi and blood, and lubricating the intestines, thus having a nourishing effect. During pregnancy, eating more pine nuts is beneficial for both the pregnant woman and the fetus. In your case, it may be bacterial or fungal vaginitis. You can use the decoction of Sophora flavescens or Melaleuca leucadendron to rinse with steam for treatment, which may be effective. Sophora flavescens or Melaleuca leucadendron have anti-inflammatory and antifungal effects, but the latter should not be taken internally.
