Can I continue cleansing my uterus during pregnancy to prevent miscarriage? - #51878

Client_4ae077

I have recently been told I have endometriosis. I just turned 35 and I started seeing a fertility specialist a few months ago. I have an appointment on April 2nd for a hysteroscopy since a saline sonogram showed lots of things ( possible polyp, scarring etc). On top of this I has told I have extremely few eggs left for my age than most other women do at my age. This was the ultimate reason for my infertility and miscarriage last year. I have begun delving deeply into Aryuveda and several months ago began taking tonics and herbs to help with this issue since my goal is to have another child before it’s too late. I have been having Angelica root, sharavari powder, Maca root, clover blossom every other day after it sits in hot water and I have started an aryuvedic pre conception cleanse. I am extremely concerned because I was supposed to have my period Thursday and I missed. 2 pregnancy tests showed I am positive for pregnancy. I am terrified because I had the miscarriage last year due to the unsafe environment for a baby to grow ( the fertility specialist said this, thus my reason for having the operation to clear the debris). So I’m afraid to have yet another miscarriage, but I’m surprised that I got pregnant and I contribute it to the changes that I started with the Aryuveda supplements. My question is, is there any way to continue tocleanse my uterus while still being pregnant so that the baby can successfully grow without miscarriage? Is there any way via Aryuveda this is possible? I am not sure if I should continue the cleanse I was taking or not since I am pregnant or if it’s just going to end in miscarriage anyways at 6weeks like it did last time. I’m sure the fertility specialist will say I just need to wait it out, but if there’s a way to continue to clear the fibroids/debris etc. while pregnant I would like this assistance so I do not miscarry.i Hope this was detailed enough, thank you so much.

From an Ayurvedic and clinical perspective, the most important principle is: Once pregnancy is confirmed, any “cleansing / detox / uterine scraping” type therapy should be stopped. Why cleansing should NOT be done during pregnancy In Ayurveda, pregnancy is a “Garbhavastha – a delicate state” where the goal is Garbha-sthāpana (stabilizing the embryo), not Shodhana (cleansing). Procedures or herbs that clean the uterus, remove debris, stimulate menstruation, or increase uterine contractions can increase the risk of miscarriage. Examples of things that are usually avoided after conception: Strong detox herbsUterine stimulants Panchakarma detox Herbs with Lekhana Shodhana / Artava-janana action About the herbs mentioned Some of the herbs in the description may not be appropriate during pregnancy Angelica root (Dong Quai) can stimulate uterus Maca root hormonal effect (generally avoided in early pregnancy) Cleansing formulas contraindicated Shatavari, however, is usually considered garbha-poshak (nourishing for pregnancy) when used properly. Ayurvedic approach during pregnancy Instead of cleansing, Ayurveda recommends Garbha-poshana (nourishing the fetus). Common supportive options Herbs Shatavari Phala Ghrita Diet Warm milk with ghee Shatavari kalpa Rice, moong dal, ghee Avoid very spicy, sour, or detox diets Lifestyle Stress reduction Adequate sleep Avoid heavy exercise and travel in early pregnancy Important point for miscarriage history Garbha Sthapana Chikitsa Phala Ghrita Shatavari preparations Milk + ghee based diet Practical: Stop the cleansing protocol immediately. Continue only pregnancy-safe nourishing Pregnancy is not the time for uterine cleansing it is the time for nourishment and stabilization of the fetus. more information consult personal consultion

Congratulations on your positive pregnancy test. Once pregnancy occurs, it is not recommended to continue any uterine “cleansing” or detox treatments, including most herbal cleanses, because they can stimulate the uterus and increase the risk of miscarriage. I would advise stopping the cleanse and herbal regimen for now and contacting your fertility specialist as soon as possible so they can monitor the pregnancy early. An Ayurvedic practitioner trained in pregnancy care may later recommend gentle, pregnancy-safe supportive therapies, but cleansing treatments should not be done during pregnancy.

NO. Once you get pregnant then you don’t need to cleansing. It affets the pregnancy and that result must be miscarriage. Why you need cleansing if pregnancy is done. Only focused on taking helthy diet , do pranayam, stressfree, relax mind for nurshing and avoding miscarriage. Take a time look out if there is complications then immediately conuslt here . Thank you🙏
