Good morning, fig fruits can be consumed in moderate amounts not in excess amounts, excess amounts of fig fruit consumption will cause side effects like continous loos stool, lowers down blood sugar level etc. So pls taking any foods kindly consult an experienced doctor as well as a dietitian. If you need a proper dietary guidance then contact me through Lybrate.

Hi mam you can take figs 2 pieces daily .during pregnancy figs�have the highest fiber content�. But if you have loose stools kindly stop it for 1 or 2 weeks there is no connection between scan ad figs intake nothing to worry you can book an appointment through Lybrate app for further queries and consultation.
