Painkillers when TTC

Piperette · Oct 11th, 2009, 18:23 PM

Hi,

I read before that certain painkillers should be avoided when TTC. So I was wondering which ones you avoided and/or took instead.

Thanks.

All I know is that a standard dose paracetomol is ok. If you have something prescribed, I wld ask your doc.

I think Ibuprofen is the one to be avoided but as TrishyC says Paracetamol is ok but best to check with pharmacist/Dr

I'm glad I came across this thread! Does ibuprofen really effect you when TTC? I get headaches often so I often take ibuprofen. I was also recently on darvocet and my period was really messed up this month, could that have caused it?
