Women during pregnancy can drink dandelion water in moderation under the guidance of a doctor.
Dandelion has the effects of clearing heat and removing toxins, dispersing lumps and swelling, diuretic and diaphoretic (to improve the problem of dribbling in urine and the problem of small amount of urine not being able to pass), and can be used clinically to treat carbuncle, feverish drenching (burning and stinging pain is obvious when urinating, accompanied by frequent urination and urgent urination, and discomfort from traction on the small abdomen), damp-heat jaundice and carbuncle, swelling and sores, and other symptoms. Dandelion can also play a role in clearing heat and diuretic when used as a tea substitute.
Pregnant women are not contraindications of dandelion, so when the above mentioned discomfort occurs during pregnancy, you can use dandelion as tea under the guidance of the doctor in moderation. However, dandelion is cold in nature, and if consumed in excess, it may cause diarrhea, so pregnant women should drink it appropriately and stop using it when adverse reactions occur.
When using dandelion as medicine, you should consult a Chinese medicine practitioner to ensure your own safety.
