Do you think it’s ok while TTC to still be taking medication for bipolar & chronic pain?

Question

Answer

I would discuss it with a doctor first

Answer

Another poll option: talk to your dr, do not take medical advice from people on an app

Answer

Ask your doctor. If the medicines would be sage during pregnancy then you are probably good to go!

Answer

Well we can’t answer that question without knowing what meds they are. I’m more concerned about the bipolar meds than the pain meds. Can you stop or drastically decrease the pain killers once you succced in conceiving ? It’s the psychiatric meds that I’m concerned about. And no, you can’t always trust your doctor to know everything. Slowly slowly cut down on the psych meds (?) the pregnancy hormones might make you happier than you’ve ever been like they did me and stoked the other meds overnight with no bad results when I got my news ( not recommending that but it worked for me!)
