A member asked:
While pregnant, if the guy i'm having sex with is on steroids, can it hurt my baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Medications your sexual partner takes do not affect the development of a fetus. Hopefully you are referring to steroid medication prescribed by a doctor. If your partner is taking unprescribed medication such as steroids for body building this is unsafe for him but still does not affect the baby.
