A member asked:
Will taking cytoxan (cyclophosphamide) and prednisone decrease my fertility?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide) can be damaging both to eggs and sperm and therefore needs to be monitored closely by your rheumatologist and fertility doctor. Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide) is also considered class d in pregnancy suggesting risk of fetal harm. Long term Prednisone therapy has little effect on sperm production or ovulation.

Yes: Cytoxan is a cell "poison" used in cancer treatment and will interfere with successful ovulation.
