Patient Question

Hello Doctor,


I have a question regarding my pregnancy. I'm currently 32 weeks pregnant and I'm wondering if it's safe for me to drink lemon herbal tea. Can you please advise?

Hello, 

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.


Lemon balm tea is considered safer than lemongrass tea during pregnancy. Lemon balm is often used for its calming properties and is believed to be safe when consumed in moderate amounts during pregnancy. However, it's always best to consult with your healthcare provider before introducing any new herbal teas into your diet, especially during pregnancy, to ensure they are safe for you and your baby. 


Thanks
