Is There An Age Limit On Fertility Drugs?
Posted: 02-23-07 21:36pm

Hi, my name is emily and I am 20 years old. I am happily married to a man named elvoid, he's 25. We really want to try for children but I don't think I am fertil, I have not had a period since I was 12 years old, except for when I was on birth control. I was wandering if there is any sort of age limit on fertility drugs? If anyone knows I would love your advice, thank you so much.

there is no age limit on drugs but there is limit on what drugs is suitable for your body condition. so seeking a doctor's advice is vital.

You need to see an ob/gyn. You may have a medical condition causing your lack of menstruation. It could be anything: pcos, a thyroid condition, etc... You could just be underweight and not able to produce the hormones you need. Please contact a doctor-you need to have at least four periods a year or you are at an increased risk for uterine or ovarian cancer.

I agree with the others. You need to talk to a doctor before you declare yourself infertile and starting take medication for it. There could be something serious going on.
