Is It Safe To Take Collagen Supplements And Flax Oil During Pregnancy?
Is it safe to take collagen supplements and fish, borage, and flax oils during pregnancy? I m taking a prenatal currently and have been since before conception, I was also taking the other supplements before I found out I was pregnant. I have stopped taking them due to not knowing if they were safe for the baby.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
There is no harm if you have taken the supplements. They are not teratogenic. It is better to consult your gynaecologist if you are planning to continue collagen supplements.. Fish and flax seeds are safe and good for health.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Madhuri
