Frequently Asked Questions

Is the CDI the reason why I cannot seem to get pregnant?

Frequently Asked Questions-Page 4
CDI itself does not interfere with the ability to get pregnant and have normal children. However, the eosinophilic granuloma that probably caused your CDI may also have destroyed other pituitary hormones that are necessary for fertility. That has probably happened if you do not have normal menstrual periods. It is not necessarily abnormal for a girl of 16 to have irregular periods, particularly if she is very active and/or underweight.

A CDI is a CREST Depository Interest. CREST holds all international stocks in a pool in a local depository such as Clearstream for German stocks and DTC for US stocks. CREST then issues a CDI to each holder of the security which can then be transferred in CREST just like a UK share.

What is my life expectancy with CDI?

Frequently Asked Questions-Page 4
If your CDI and hypothyroidism are fully treated, they should not interfere with your fertility. They also should not affect your life expectancy nor have any effect on other medications that you may be taking. However, the disease that apparently caused your CDI and hypothyroidism could affect any or all of these things depending on what kind of tumor it was, how it was treated, and so forth. I have CDI and am having problems getting pregnant; I do not have normal menstrual cycles.
Related Questions

Reason is because?

The words reason is (was, etc.) should be followed by a statement of the reason: 'The reason for his failure was illness.' ' The reason for the strict rules is to enforce discipline.' Similar statements can be made by using because: "He failed because of illness.' 'The rules are strict because it is necessary to enforce discipline.' Reason and because convey the same sense. It is illogical to use both words to indicate the same meaning.

Will the children of the patient be born suffering from or get sick with CDI?

Frequently Asked Questions-Page 4
CDI can result from at least two kinds of genetic mutations. The most common one affects both males and females and can be transmitted from father to son, or father to daughter. On average, about half the children will be affected. The other type of familial CDI is due to a mutation on the x-chromosome. It affects only males and cannot be passed from father to son.
Related Questions

How high is the possibility that my children will pass on CDI to their children?

Frequently Asked Questions-Page 4
It sounds as though you have the autosomal dominant form of familial pituitary DI (adFPDI). If so, your affected children have a 50-50 chance of passing the disease to each of their children. If the genetic mutation responsible for the adFPDI in your family has not already been determined, you should have genetic analysis performed because the information will enable your children to have their children tested at birth (or even before) to find out if they will also get CDI.

What risks does my CDI cause for my baby during pregnancy?

Frequently Asked Questions-Page 4
Neither CDI or dDAVP treatment is risky for the fetus. As far as we know, dDAVP is completely safe during pregnancy. It has not been associated with any significant increase in spontaneous abortions or fetal malformations. The only risk is water intoxication, but that is no greater than in any other DI patient and can be avoided by remembering to drink only when you are truly thirsty.

What is the treatment of CDI in post-partum women?

Frequently Asked Questions-Page 4
The treatment of CDI in the post-partum state is essentially the same as in other conditions provided the patient is conscious and able to take fluids by mouth. DDAVP may be given by nasal spray, tablets, or injection. If CDI is due to Sheehan's syndrome (pituitary necrosis), it may also be necessary to treat anterior pituitary hormone deficiencies. In any case, water balance should be monitored closely until it is clear that the patient's thirst and fluid intake are regulated appropriately.

Business inertia is something you've experienced but don't think about very much. It's benefited banks and cellular phone companies for years. Simply put, business inertia is the fact that it's more pain to change banks or cell phone providers than it's worth. You would have to reorder checks, and that takes three weeks. You've given out your phone number to everyone, and you'd have to call them all to let them know you've changed numbers or risk losing touch.

Can you be pregnant and still have your period?

TCOYF Fertility FAQs
It's fairly unusual to be pregnant and still have a normal period. This is because the very thing that causes women to menstruate is the drop in progesterone that occurs only if fertilization does not happen. If a woman were pregnant, her progesterone levels would remain high, thus preventing her from having a period.
