About this listen

An evidence-based clinical overview regarding the safety and efficacy of herbal medicines, vitamins, and supplements during pregnancy and lactation. It systematically reviews sixty different botanicals, such as blue cohosh, ginger, and echinacea, evaluating their potential as abortifacients, uterine stimulants, or aids for milk production. The authors highlight a significant lack of scientific data on natural products, noting that many traditional recommendations rely on historical use or animal studies rather than human trials. Detailed pharmacological profiles describe active plant constituents like alkaloids, flavonoids, and saponins, explaining their physiological impact on both the mother and the developing fetus. Each entry includes a safety scale and evidence grade to help healthcare providers and expectant mothers make informed decisions about supplement risks. Ultimately, the work serves as a comprehensive reference for identifying which natural substances are beneficial and which may cause toxic or teratogenic effects.
