Talk to me about Medrol

tigerjen77 · 09-19-2007, 12:21 PM

I was doing some reading and noticed alot of ladies talking about how they take Medrol during their cycle. As it turns out my rhuematologist (I've had RA since I was 18 months old) started me on Medrol about 10 days ago as I discovered that the anti-inflammatory I had been on for 3+ years causes miscarriage!

Besides helping me with my pain, can it help me concieve? What exactly does medrol do when taken while ttc?

Also, does it cause pregnancy-like symptoms? For instance, can it just be the medrol making me crampy or what?

Thank you so much!

Ps: A good note is that I've had my first natural ovulatory cycle in 7 years since stopping my anti-inflammatory! I was so proud I left the + OPK out on the counter for everyone to see for 4 days!
