Question 2

hi, i'm 38 yrs old and i want to get pregnant soon can i take fertility dugs?what kinds of fertility drugs i should take?please help

Accepted Answer

Gynecologist: You want to get in touch with an obstetrician/gynecologist who specializes in infertility. You may or may not be a candidate for such drugs. You want to play the odds for having a safe pregnancy and a healthy baby.

Question 3

does a surrogate mother have to take fertility drugs to prepare?

Accepted Answer

Usually: The medications are different than fertility enhancing injections. Gestational surrogates typically receive Estradiol and progesterone, which are the exact same hormones that your ovaries normally produce.  With fresh eggs you will also need medications to synchronize your menstrual cycle with the intended parent. With  frozen embryos, then medications are not absolutely necessary.

Question 4

is it safe to take fertility drugs when you have graves disease ( i take 10 mg of methimazole once daily)?

Accepted Answer

Consult your doctor: There are risks and benefits to taking medication when you're pregnant.  There are also risks to untreated thyroid disease.  Your doctor may want to consult an endocrinologist for help deciding whether to switch medications and how often to test your thyroid during your pregnancy.  This is something you need to be comfortable discussing with your obstetrician.

Question 5

after taking fertility drugs for ivf i have to take rest ?

Avoid stress.: During ivf cycles, generally solid advice is to follow your specialist&#x27;s recommendations, minimize stress (physical and emotional), rest as long as you like, maintain hydration and balanced diet and take your Folic Acid 1-5 mg daily. Avoid saunas, all alcohol/smoking/illicit drugs and maintain a positive attitude. Best of luck!

Enhancing fertility: Take prenatal vits with dha, don't smoke nor do recreational drugs, minimize alcohol and caffeine, be closer to your ideal wt, make an appointment to see a reproductive endocrinologist sooner than later....Find one that will not "fast tract you into doing ivf"...He or she may discover something simple such as your husband should not be on a calcium channel blocker as a blood pressure med.
