A member asked:
Is eating coated candy fennel seeds safe while.pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: Fennel contains organic substances that confer bothestrogenic and anticoagulant properties, neither of which would be considered safe to consume in pregnancy, especially in the first trimester. For better and more specific advice, check with your OB, but by all means, don't take any chances
