FAQ

Why look for alternatives to trichosanthes kirilowii root extract?

Animal and mechanistic data show trichosanthin (from T. kirilowii root) is embryotoxic/abortifacient and has been used clinically to induce abortion, so reproductive hazard is supported (h=2). The mechanism is demonstrated (ribosome‑inactivating protein with demonstrated abortion mechanisms in experimental studies), so m=2. For topical cosmetic use exposure is likely low but measurable (e=1) because extracts are applied topically and some dermal uptake or local activity is possible depending on formulation; however systemic exposure from typical cosmetic topical use is likely limited.

Are these alternatives truly pregnancy-safe?

Every alternative listed has a "no known risks" risk band in our database, scored from EU CosIng, ECHA hazard classifications, and PubMed research. Always consult your OB-GYN before using new skincare during pregnancy.

Can I use more than one alternative at the same time?

Yes — many pregnancy-safe ingredients layer well (e.g. hyaluronic acid + niacinamide + mineral SPF). Our app flags any interactions when you scan full product ingredient lists.
