What should pregnant women pay attention to when using musk?

Musk is a commonly used medicinal material in traditional Chinese medicine, which has the effects of inducing resuscitation, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis and relieving pain. However, for pregnant women, the use of musk needs to be very cautious.

Use with caution in early pregnancy.

Musk has strong irritation and excitability, which may cause uterine contraction and increase the risk of miscarriage. Especially in the early pregnancy, the organs of the fetus are forming, and the use of musk at this time may have adverse effects on the development of the fetus.

Affect the fetal nervous system

Musk may also enter the fetus through maternal blood and stimulate the fetal nervous system, which may lead to neurological diseases after birth.

Use under the guidance of a doctor.

Pregnant women should use any medicine, including Chinese medicine, under the guidance of a doctor. If musk must be used, it should also be used under the strict supervision of doctors to ensure the safety of mother and baby.
