Anti-depressants & IF

I guess I really need to speak to my dr...my RE said it was ok to continue taking Zoloft but I feel like I really should be cutting back on it at this point with the issues we are dealing with. I take 150 mg and have been cutting down to 100mg gradually....I plan on going down to 50mg and then stopping (hopefully) but it's not easy with my anxiety......anyone been through this?

Re: Anti-depressants & IF

I've never been on antidepressants but one of my BFF has. She was on Lexapro after having a really bad panic attack that led to subsequent panic attacks bad enough to keep her out of work for 3 months. She couldn't function at all. After she starting taking the Lexapro she got better and started TTC. She had a blocked tube and did an HSG that apparently unblocked the tube and got preggo that same month. She quit taking the Lexapro pretty much cold turkey...not sure that was the best idea but she's fine now. She's 9 months pregnant and has been doing fine. Good Luck

Re: Anti-depressants & IF

I wa son PAxil for anxiety when going through it. I remained on it till I got PG. Then I switched to Zoloft which is much much safer and I staye don Zoloft throughout my PG and till about 6 weeks PP...Then I went back to the Paxil.

HTH!

ETA- I was on 100mg of Zoloft during the PG.
