6 months pregnant, craving for Clay

2019-01-07 10:24:35
Hi, I am 6 months pregnant & have developed this habit of eating grey clay since past couple of months, the amount of clay I am eating is very high & I cannot avoid it as I get tremors and serious urge of eating it,  also I feel stressed. Also I have recently been diagnosed with Pregnancy Induced Asthma. For which I am taking Foracort inhaler. Is it going to harm me or my baby? Also what could be the reason for this?

It means iron deficiency anemia, so go for blood examination  CBC, and haematocrit  and take bandyplus for worms. Chat me on Practo consult app online for more details.

Whts your Hemobloin and calcium level.. Check it once and have psychological counselling too if you have withdrawn symptoms.. It's very unhealthy to eat such stuff..
