Q. Are Dimethylaminoethanol tablets safe for women who are trying for pregnancy and those who are pregnant or breastfeeding?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com

DMAE is Dimethylaminoethanol, it is a compound that helps improve mood and increase activeness. The bad news regarding this product is that there is no large level comprehensive sufficient studies which can tell us whether it is good or bad. There are only small scale studies and hit and trial results (These are not reliable).

Now if it were only a question of consuming it for yourself, I would have suggested you go ahead but since a baby who is yet to be conceived is in question, I will suggest you not take it till the baby is conceived and once your wife is pregnant, you can start consuming DMAE. If you want to ask for your wife, I suggest not taking it till she stops breastfeeding your baby which is estimated to be two to two and a half years from now.

Kindly reach out for more help.

Regards.

Same symptoms doesn’t mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
