Have a flu and was thinking of having some ginger tea ... then I read this post below. Does anyone know if I need to be careful of ginger during pregnacy?

Thanks and regards

Brenda

Carrie I am not sure these 2 herbs will specifically affect fertility, but if they are in mixtures, that is a different story. I know some herbs do have estrogenic properties, and that may influence your fertility. Hope this helps.
