Frequently asked questions

Is commiphora myrrha (myrrh) resin safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised reproductive classification on ECHA Annex VI and no SCCS/CIR conclusion indicating reproductive hazard; traditional/ethnobotanical reports of emmenagogue/uterotonic effects do not constitute regulatory or robust toxicological evidence. Topical cosmetic use implies low but measurable dermal exposure (some volatile and low-MW constituents present — see PubChem/CosIng).
Is commiphora myrrha (myrrh) resin safe while breastfeeding?
No regulatory or peer-reviewed evidence showing developmental or lactation-specific reproductive toxicity or confirmed transfer into breast milk; dermal exposure from cosmetics is expected to be low but measurable.
Is commiphora myrrha (myrrh) resin safe for baby skin?
No infant-specific reproductive/toxicology data identified. Given measurable dermal absorption in adults and the increased exposure potential for infants (higher surface-area-to-weight and immature barrier), exposure rating increased by one step versus adults. No evidence to increase hazard/mechanism scores for infants.
