Ragi is nutritious yet goitrogenic...so instead of baking or roasting it in the form of rotis, cook it well like paratha, Puri, cheela

Your conceive part related to your ovulation day for that you need to discuss over your period time
And in case of thyroid it's better to take ragi 2-3 days a week once a day is fine
For detailed discussion connect with me on practo app

Healthy afternoon ma’am,
Ragi is rich in calcium actually….. it doesn’t have any side effects… so you don’t worry about it….. Hypothyroidism is not related with ragi thing… hope you understand
Thank you.
