Can I take guaifenesin while I am pregnant or trying to conceive?

Pregnancy, trying to conceive, and guai are situations you should discuss with your gynecologist.

Will taking antiviral medication while trying to conceive lower my chances of becoming pregnant?

HerpesHealth.ca:FAQs
Antiviral medication is not recommended when you are trying to become pregnant, so you should talk to your doctor before trying to conceive. First, you should have a blood test called type specific herpes serology to confirm that you are, in fact, not infected with genital herpes. If you do not have herpes, your partner should be counselled by his doctor on taking daily oral antiviral medication to decrease the risk of recurrences as well as the risk of transmission.

What about using alcohol, drugs or smoking when pregnant or when trying to conceive?

BabiesDirect: pregnancy , pregnancies , babies , baby inform...
Smoking, illicit drug use and alcohol use are never save during pregnancy. These substances increase your risk of having a miscarriage, a baby with birth defects or a premature baby. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is a VERY serious problem during pregnancy so stopping during conceiving is important. Children whose parents smoke have a greater chance of dying from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), and they also have more colds and ear infections while growing up. See similar questions...

Is it safe to continue trying to get pregnant while on the Insulite PCOS System?

PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) - Frequently Asked Questi...
It is safe to continue trying to get pregnant while you are using the Insulite PCOS System. However, if you do get pregnant, we recommend that you discontinue taking the Insulite PCOS System supplements during your pregnancy, and then resume the supplements after you are finished breastfeeding. The reason is that, while we know that the Insulite PCOS System is safe and non-toxic in general, these supplements have not been tested in any clinical trials specifically on pregnant women or infants.

Is it safe to get pregnant?

MSAA - FAQ
Many of those diagnosed with MS are young women with plans of having children at some point in their future.

Is there an advantage to waiting a few months after stopping the pill before trying to conceive?

Birth control pill FAQ: Benefits, risks and choices - MayoCl...
For the purpose of dating the pregnancy — estimating when you ovulated and when your baby is due — it's somewhat advantageous to have at least one normal period before conceiving. In the past, doctors had concerns that if you conceived immediately after stopping the pill, you had a higher risk of miscarriage. However, these concerns have proved to be largely unfounded. If you plan to wait a few months, use a backup form of birth control while your menstrual cycles get back to normal. See similar questions...

Can I take diet drugs while trying to get pregnant?

FertilityPlus: Infertility FAQ for Women of Size
No. Diet drugs have not been fully tested in pregnancy, for one thing, but more importantly such dieting can lead to poor nutrition. You want a healthy baby, so it is best to keep your system as drug free as possible. Some literature suggests one should try to be drug free -- including over the counter medications, for 3 months prior to seeking pregnancy. See medical journal abstracts. See similar questions...

Should I try to lose weight before trying to get pregnant?

FertilityPlus: Infertility FAQ for Women of Size
If it makes you feel more comfortable, yes, but only if you are doing it for yourself. It is not something you should feel as if you have to do.

What do nurses do?

Frequently Asked Questions
Nurses act as intermediaries between doctors and patients. Nurses assist doctors in patient care by administering medicine, educating patients, monitoring patient progress, and reporting problems. But nurses are much more than just a doctor's assistant. Nurses have a great deal of clinical experience, and sometimes nurses have more clinical experience than the doctor. A wise doctor knows that it is a good idea to ask for the nurse's opinion and recommendation. See similar questions...
