Raspberry leaf tea recommended or not?
Hi everyone! I need your advice, Im week 36 on saturday and have been advised to start drinking raspberry leaf tea ahead of my baby’s arrival. Although I have heard and read online about how raspberry leaf tea have estrogen-like effects and should therefore be avoided.
I dont know what to do and wanted to check if anyone else has come across this?

Go for it, you're pregnant so don't have to worry so much about phyto oestrogens
I doubt 3 cups a day for 4 weeks will build up much oestrogen either and you would start with 1 cup to begin with anyway
I drank it from an earlier week and had no endo issues. 4.5 months pp and endo symptoms not back yet
I didn’t drink raspberry leaf tea until 38 weeks + 4 days and I went into labor at 39 weeks exactly. I didn’t believe the tea was actually going to work but at 38w+4days I drank 2 trenta passion tango tea lemonades from Starbucks and curb walked for like an hour and did that for 2 days in a row and then I went into labor 😭 so idk maybe it worked. I’m 2 months postpartum and my endo symptoms are back and worse than ever
