Re: Re: MTX & Forced Birth Control

[Guest guest]

I don't mean to be adversarial but I can see why he'd ask. I got pregnant

just after I took my last dose of MTX. I miscarried my 9th week.

I'm so sorry to hear that Abby! I thought I had read that some who got pregnant

while on Methotrexate had to stop it immediately. I can understand their

concern. Although it seems they would offer other medication choices instead of

forcing birth control. I'm hypercoagulative and had to stop taking the birth

control pills over 6 years ago. My OB/GYN and family doctors will not let me

take them due to my blood clotting.

I can understand that. There are other forms of birth control as you know.
