I take sildenifil for secondary raynauds disease and am also trying for a baby. If you have been in this situation what was the advice you were given from medical professionals?
I have been advised to continue taking it until I find out I am pregnant...but that slightly worries me still. I'd be keen to find out what advice is provided in different areas/from different doctors. Thank you!
I didn’t realize I was sick during my child bearing years (I have 5 that are all adults now), but, I too would be concerned about taking anything and becoming pregnant. I hope you figure this out and I wish you the very best. Dancingc22, and all my best in getting pregnant! How exciting!!!
I was having a quick look at the NICE guidelines for Sildenafil and thought it may be worth a look:
bnf.nice.org.uk/drug/silden...
Ah thanks, seems quite vague!!
I just noticed a bit on pregnancy on the NICE guidelines.
I worked on the trial for this drug many years ago for a company that were processing the data for Pfizer. It was interesting to see how a hypertension drug became a breakthrough for people with Erectile Dysfunction. I don’t really know of the others benefits that it had.
That’s interesting! Yes, well it certainly improves my raynauds...however I’d much rather have ulcers on my fingers than risk a baby’s development
Steroids - worth a try?
