Low dose Prozac and pregnancy
Hi everyone, I am 10dpo and have been having a lot of pregnancy like symptoms. This is the 7th month I’ve been TTC and the first time I have felt any of these symptoms.
The dose of Prozac that I have been stable on is 10mg. Before TTC I tried to ween off but once I was at 5mg for awhile my anxiety and intrusive thoughts came back quite strongly. I was am to functional normally but inside I was not doing well. I found a happy medium at 7.5mg (10mg one day and 5mg the next). I’ve been on this dose for well over 6 months now.
Now that I am having all of these symptoms I am really thinking I may be pregnant this time around and I am freaking out about the possible side effects that Prozac can have on my child. I desperately don’t want to be on Prozac while pregnant but I’m also petrified of how I will feel while pregnant and off the meds. Also, i have a full time job so I need to be able to function at work etc.
If anyone has any advice or personal stories please let me know. Thank you!!
