I'm not too sure about the infertility, I
do know however once you do become
pregnant you do want to talk to yur
doctor- you may have to decrease, or stop
certain meds all together, and if your
planning on breast feeding, it may be a no
go..The meds could effect the baby, talk
to your doctor and tell him/her that you
are planning on having a baby, he/she will
hopefully know what's best to recommend.
