Guest guest Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Congratulations, Manika! You're not the first woman to announce overcoming infertility with LDN. Here's some information and the names of a couple of doctors you could possibly contact: http://www.low dose naltrexone.org/further_q_and_a.htm >Can LDN be taken during pregnancy? How about while breast feeding? >Dr. Phil Boyle, a specialist in fertility care in Galway, reports the >following: > >I am confident that LDN is perfectly safe in pregnancy and in certain >cases will actually reduce the risk of miscarriage.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Dr boyle treats fertility problems with ldn and says that it is safe to use during pregnancy.you can try to contact him .you can try via his sister mary bradley. If you think that you might have progesterone shortage,find a doctor that understand bio-identical and he can give you bio-identical progesteron. You can read also the book of dr lee about progesterone http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0446614955?ie=UTF8 & tag=hormondisbal-20 & linkCode=as2 & camp=1789 & creative=9325 & creativeASIN=0446614955 it speaks about progesterone also in pregnancy and not only about menopause. I would not trust ldn to take care of all hormonale problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
