There are no medical studies to show that role papaya affects pregnancy. This myth comes from the fact that the seeds of raw papaya can cause abortion in very high dose. We are anyway not eating any seeds .
Don't take stress . Papaya is good for gut health and relieves constipation. I myself used to eat papaya in my pregnancy.
