    IVF meds

    Is it safe to breastfeed while undergoing IVF?

    Meds include...

    Ganirelix 250MCG/0.5ML
    Follistim AQ INJ 300 IU
    Menopur INJ 75/unit
    Apri Tab
    Doxycycline Cap 100mg

    Thank you.

    Dear khmom2007,
    These drugs are probably safe and should not affect the breastfed baby, however, Apri Tab is an estrogen product and this will probably decrease your milk supply. Also, you should not use Doxycycline for more than 3 weeks since this can cause teeth staining in the breastfed baby. Hope this helps.
