I recently stopped taking conterceptive as my husband and I would like to have a third child.

My husband is 54 and I am 35.

I am only concerned about the possible side effects of the highblood pressure medicine on his semen and eventualy possibly on the fetus.

Any adivce would be helpful. He has been taking; enapren 20, lasix and norvasc 10, daily for about 3 years.

Thank you
