Hi can an Anti-histamine a day contibute to not concieving?

thanks


Answer:
i would ask your Doctor, he will know superior, blue

Answer:
hi, i am on a strong prescription only anti-histamine….what i do is work out my fertile days and omit the medication for the 3-4 days at this time…..which is about what i can bear.!!

drugs like anti-histimines can be omitted for a few days with no detrimental effect except your symotoms might reappear….but i find its worth it have decent CM—also take a supplement like evening primrose oil all month to increase your wetness (added bonus it also helps PMS and makes skin healthy)

Also try and eliminate the cause of your allergy (for me dust and dust mites) ie i have no capets special material curtains, Anti allergy bedding, and cleaning products—-the whole hog!! if you attack the cause you are less reliant on medication =)

best of luck hun…


Answer:
I asked at the chemist last year when we started ttc and he recommended Chlorphenamine tablets. They are the ones that can make you drowsy. Apparently it is the non drowsy ingredient that could cause a problem so th older ones are ok. Double check with your pharmacist-mine stated superior not to take anything but if i had to, these were the best. Hayfever was killing me so i had no choice but to take something.

Answer:
im ttc too and my doc told me that i shouldnt be taking hayfever tablets - which obviously have antihistamine in them - so i think you shouldnt take any tablets with antihistamine. check with your doc to be sure though - its not worth the danger!

Answer:
well, i suppose its possible by drying up your mucous and creating a bad environment for sperm… try Guaifenisin.. it thins out the mucous rather than drying it up, make sure its the only ingredient in your Robitussin

Answer:
you dont state what you’re taking ,

we need the specific name of the drug you are taking.

then we’ll be able to tell you some facts…
