Worm Out FAQs during Pregnancy, Nursing and for Infants
Posted by TriLight Health on Jan 28th 2026
Pregnancy and nursing can be a confusing time to navigate. Your friends may be doing something that your midwife or OBGYN says not to. Or the midwife may approve something that your primary care doctor is not so sure about. Then the baby comes, and it seems like everyone you meet has a different opinion about what to do - or not do.
There are so many different approaches out there. A million things to learn about. Sometimes, it feels like there is way too much information at our fingertips. Your healthcare providers are not trying to contradict each other. Your well-meaning friends and family are not trying to confuse you. Everyone is doing the best they can with the information they have and their own personal studies, values, and interests.
We get a lot of questions about using the Worm Out parasite cleanse during pregnancy, while nursing, and with infants. If we can take away at least some of the confusion during this season of life, we hope this blog post will help. Today, we're going to answer the most common questions we receive about our herbal parasite cleanse.

Q- Is it ok to take Worm Out while nursing?
A- Many customers have done the parasite cleanse while nursing; however, one thing to keep in mind is that it may change the taste of the milk for the infant. Start with small doses and get approval from both your healthcare provider and your infant's healthcare provider.
Q- How soon before nursing should I dose?
A- Talk to your healthcare provider and your baby's healthcare provider. Generally, healthcare providers, midwives, and lactation consultants recommend taking it about 30 to 60 minutes before nursing.
Q- What if the herbal parasite cleanse while nursing impacts my milk?
A- Introduce Worm Out in small amounts to your body, build up, and see how the baby adapts to the taste. Most customers haven't had any issues; however, you'll probably know pretty soon after taking it, and you can discontinue the use if the baby doesn't like it.
Q- Can I take Worm Out while pregnant?
A- People often wonder how to do a parasite cleanse when pregnant. It is not a good idea to do so. Worm Out is not recommended during pregnancy.
Q- Is Worm Out safe for infants?
A- We do not recommend Worm Out for anyone under 25 lbs., however, if the infant is still nursing, you can introduce it to them that way. Get approval from your healthcare provider and your baby's healthcare provider.
Q- What is the best parasite cleanse for families?
A- Worm Out is one of the most gentle parasite cleanse options available. It tastes fantastic and is easy to dose. Families often report to us that their children love the taste so much that they are disappointed when it is over.
Your child needs to be at least 25 lbs, and you should always talk with their healthcare provider first. Many practitioners prefer to wait until children are a bit older, while others are ok with younger children using Worm Out. Many families like to use our herbal multivitamins after completing the protocol.
We made an easy kit with everything you need, all in one.
Q- How long does a parasite cleanse take if I want to do one before trying to conceive?
A- Our recommended protocol takes about a month and a half. We suggest 7-10 days of garlic first (either cloves or encapsulated garlic). Then 10 days of Worm Out, a 10- day break, and another 10 days of Worm Out. The body should then be deeply nourished with whole foods, probiotics, and nutrients. Talk to your healthcare provider about the best protocol for you, especially before trying to conceive. They can also advise you on how long to wait before trying to conceive after finishing a parasite cleanse. We also offer B-Fruitful fertility support for those who need it.
Q- Do I need to parasite cleanse at the full moon? What about using Worm Out during a specific phase of the moon?
A- Some people say it is best to do parasite cleanses at the new and full moons. We have some customers who time their first round of Worm Out to coincide with one phase, and their second round with the other. Other families choose to use Worm Out twice a year, alternating with the moon cycles. Overall, however, customers have not reported a significant difference in results depending on when in the month they use Worm Out.
Q- Does Worm Out cause migraines or headaches?
A- Parasite cleanse and headaches (or migraines) are reported with a lot of other products out there. Our formula is much more gentle than many on the market. We rarely ever hear of customers reporting undesired side effects commonly associated with parasite die-off. And when they do, they typically last only a day or two. Many of our customers use Worm Out because it is gentle, and they want something without intense effects that is still highly effective. We believe in keeping things as gentle, easy, delicious, and fast-acting as possible.
Bonus question- Can I use Worm Out parasite cleanse for dogs (or other animals)?
No, this product has not been approved for use in animals. Please work with your vet or a qualified veterinary herbalist for the best option for your pets/livestock.
