You may be asking, what limits does oil of oregano have? At this point, it’s not perfectly clear.
I personally take oregano essential oil internally for a maximum of two weeks in most cases because it’s so powerful. When taking oregano oil internally, it should always be diluted with water or mixed with coconut oil. I find it’s helpful to combine oregano oil with olive oil in capsules to avoid burning the throat. To prevent negative skin reactions from oregano application, it’s recommended that you perform a small patch test first and always use a carrier oil.
The dried herb oregano is typically fine for pregnant women, but generally speaking, it’s not considered safe to use oregano oil during pregnancy. When using oil of oregano, pregnant women should use caution and only use if instructed by their physician to do so. If side effects such as nausea, dizziness or an allergic reaction are ever experienced then stop using oregano oil right away and consider seeing a doctor. *
