Guest guest Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 First, have you had testing to determine the need for Cortisol replacement? Being PG makes this a whole new matter. You must be CERTAIN you need it then Would only use Hydrocortisone. The reason is that Isocort has other hormones in it as well as Echinacea and I am not sure of the safety of that with PG. If you are low cortiosl the taking HC will not harm you or the baby. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote
Guest guest Posted April 13, 2006 Report Posted April 13, 2006 Hi Rain, Congratulations!:-)) Your need for thyroid hormone and adrenal too if you need it, changes during pregnancy and it is very important for your baby that you have enough of both.... You need to read all you can about Pregnancy and Thyroid as well as Pregnancy and Adrenals if that applies to you.. If it was me, I would rather take Cortef during pregnancy than Isocort because it is a known drug of specific doses that has been used for a long time. In Dr. Jefferies book The Safe Uses of Cortisol he says that lots of healthy babies were delivered to women taking Hydrocortisone and Dr. in Hypothyroidism the Unsuspected Illness said the same about Thyroid. At least read those two books you need to be informed both for yourself and your child to come..
