Is Oregano Oil Safe in Breastfeeding?
Answered by: Susan Eagles
Question from: Irina
Posted on: June 11, 2005

Is it safe for a nursing mother to use oregano oil?

I do not know whether oregano oil comes through to the breast milk, but it is not worth taking a chance with a baby. Oregano oil is such a strong irritant to the mucous membranes. I recommend that it not be used by nursing mothers.
