Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can help...

I was diagnosed with AS in my early 20's (33 now) and have been taking 75mg of Diclofenac twice a day since.

My husband and I have been trying for a baby for 19 months and are at present undergoing fertility investigations. I have read many articles on the web saying that NSAIDS may cause temporary infertility and have motioned this to my Rheumatologist and the fertility consultant but neither knew anything about it and don’t seem to be taking it seriously.

The articles I have read say that when taken off NSAIDS the women studied become pregnant quite quickly but they do not say what kind of pain relief they were given during this period.

So finally to my question's. Does anyone know anything about this or what kinds of medication are ok to take while trying to get pregnant?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Nicola
