VeriMom¿Es melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) leaf seguro durante el embarazo?
Tea tree oil (Melaleuca alternifolia leaf oil/extract, CAS 85085-48-9) has case reports and in vitro data suggesting endocrine activity (prepubertal gynecomastia reports and cell-line estrogenic/anti‑androgenic activity), so reproductive hazard is suspected (h=2). Mechanistic studies demonstrate estrogenic/antiandrogenic activity in vitro (m=2). Topical cosmetic use gives low but measurable exposure (e=1). Sources: PubMed case reports/systematic reviews and NIEHS/Endocrine Society coverage; CIR and ECHA dossiers discuss safety and regulatory review.

- ¿Es melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) leaf seguro durante la lactancia?
- Same suspected endocrine hazard applies to breastfeeding context because the mechanistic and case-report evidence supports endocrine activity (h=2, m=2). Topical maternal use produces low but measurable exposure; transfer into breastmilk is not well characterized for the whole oil, so exposure score kept at low but measurable (e=1). Stopping use if concern is prudent.
- ¿Es melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) leaf seguro para la piel del bebé?
- For infants (0–3 yr) the same suspected hazard (h=2) and mechanistic evidence (m=2) apply. Because infant skin has higher absorption per body weight, exposure score is increased by +1 (adult e=1 → infant e=2). In addition, case reports of pediatric endocrine effects involved topical exposure in children.
