Can you put Bio-Oil on nipples?

Published in Breastfeeding Safety 1 min read

No, you should not put Bio-Oil directly on your nipples, especially if you are breastfeeding.

According to available information:

  • It is generally considered safe to use Bio-Oil on your body while breastfeeding.
  • However, Bio-Oil should not be applied to the nipples.
  • This is because babies are sensitive and should not ingest Bio-Oil, even in small amounts, although Bio-Oil is non-toxic.

In summary, while Bio-Oil may be fine for other areas of your body during breastfeeding, avoid using it on or near your nipples to prevent any potential ingestion by your baby.
