A member asked:
Can having multiple overdoses affect my ability to have a baby later in life?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, but....: This is a loaded question. The overdoses themselves, probably not. Opiates, cocaine, marijuana, pcp, etc. Shouldn't really cause any damage. Same with suicide overdose attempts. However, links between these behaviors and other high risk behaviors like unprotected sex, selling sex for drugs, poor choices regarding sexual safety, etc, can lead to sexually transmitted diseases and scarring.
