Planning To Conceive Then Avoid These Healthy Foods : We often see many couples that when they prepare to become parents, they take special care of everything, including their diet. They take great care of their health and eat everything healthy. But still, many couples face problems in conceiving. They try a lot, but still pregnancy does not happen. In such a situation, they start taking a lot of stress about this. They often ask the question that why does this happen to them? They also start feeling anxious about their fertility.

Let us tell you that weak fertility is not the reason for not getting pregnant every time. Apart from this, some things prevent pregnancy. You may be surprised to know that we also eat some such foods, which are generally very beneficial for our health, but their consumption is not considered good for couples who are trying to conceive. These can affect pregnancy. Health influencer and Ayurvedic doctor Dr. Diksha Bhavsar has shared some such things on social media, which may be healthy but if you are planning a family, then both men and women should avoid consuming them.

These foods cause problems in conceiving

1. Cardamom

It is one of the best spices that helps in balancing the Vata and Kapha doshas in the body. It also helps in relieving breathing problems, body pain, heartburn, urine related problems, it is a natural mouth freshener, and acts as an aphrodisiac. Consumption of cardamom is also considered very beneficial for heart health. It improves digestion, helps in treating cough, and removes problems like erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation in men.

But despite having so many benefits, it should not be consumed before conceiving. Ayurveda recommends consuming cardamom in very limited quantities during pregnancy. Also, it suggests avoiding it while conceiving. If consumed in excess, it can affect your fertility. Stop consuming it 2-3 months in advance.

2. Flax Seeds

These seeds are great for heart health. They maintain healthy cholesterol levels in the blood. They also help prevent and manage prostate and UTI problems.

But according to Ayurveda, flax seeds are hot in nature and are considered Shukraaghi, which means they contribute to the reduction of sperm/semen. They can affect the quality of sperm in men. Both men and women should avoid consuming them. Also, stop consuming them a few months in advance.

3. Hibiscus

This flower is considered very beneficial for health. They are cooling for the body. They are also used to get relief from migraine headaches. They help in relieving hair problems, pimples, and conditions related to pitta dosha.

But its consumption should also be avoided by pregnant women or couples trying to conceive. Because it has a contraceptive effect. Its consumption should be stopped for at least 3-4 months.
