HC (Cortisol) and Pregnancy

[Guest guest]

HI all,

The dentist that we have begun working with has just started supporting her weak

adrenals with HC for a week or two, and then found out she was pregnant (7 weeks

or so). She had not started the HC yet when she fell pregnant, but had been on

some licorice that could have stimulated them.

She is now unsure what to do.

Can HC be sustained throughout a pregnancy and is it even necessary?

Does anyone have Jeffries' book to have a peek please?

I know that he says he gave low-dose HC to rheumatoid patients and suddenly some

become fertile again.

Obviously now she cannot remove her 4 amalgams, clean her cavitations or chelate

until she has stopped breast feeding.

Well, I assume chelation is an obvious contra-indication in pregnancy?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dean

In a discussion about women who have restored their ability to

conceive by taking physiological doses of cortisol, Jefferies

suggests the continued use of cortisol through pregnancy. He

says in some cases the continued use of cortisol may be necessary

to maintain the pregnancy (p. 84).

This does not apply to the dentist you are talking about, but it is

some precedent for the use of cortisol in preganancy. If I were

her, I would investigate this a bit more.

Yes. A good supplement program would still be helpful.

She might get more pertinent information from the autism-mercury

group. Perhaps she would find further input there (or on the NTH

adrenals group or other hormone discussion forums) about he use of

cortisol in pregancy.
