Albuterol Inhaler?

[Stevi]

Anyone know if using this effects fertility? And/or is safe in early pregnancy?

I found a great website on this at one time since DH is on it for asthma. It did mention that it can impact sperm count (Obviously not your problem )
I'll try to hunt it down and post it for you....

safe. definitely safer than not breathing well.

don't know about fertility, but I got pregnant first try.

Thanks Enigo!


rhiOrion... At my age, I am worried about even the slightest possibility of effects on fertility. Breathing is secondary.

I can't find it of course. On the happy fluffy side all I found said there was no impact on fertility but that it can cause birth defects if used too often.

Thanks for trying.

Right now, if I use it, I try to only use it CD1 to O.

I trust you have something that you can take instead? I would thing not getting enough O2 would effect holding on to a pregnancy? Don't blame you for being so careful though, I just know how it feels to not be able to get a good breath. (Had adult asthma while working as a nurse, it went away when I got out of the hospitals!)

No, the Albuteraol is the only medication I'm on. I am taking large quantities of antioxidents, though. And those I cannot seem to live without.

I can live without the Albuterol. But, I've been sick about every 6 weeks since January, and was wondering if using the Albuterol regularly would help. First though, I want to make sure it won't effect fertility and early pregnancy.

I was told antibiotics wouldn't effect my pregnancy, and ended up miscarrying. So, I'm extra cautious now.
