Loratadine and Fertility

One side effect that manufacturers do not list is a connection between Loratadine and fertility. Loratadine contains mast cell blocking antihistamines. Studies in animals have shown that antihistamines that block mast cells may be of assistance for men experiencing low sperm counts. Mast cells, found in connective tissue, releases substances in response to injury or inflammation of body tissues. It's the inflammatory immune factor that some think plays a beneficial a role in men with lower sperm quality. These findings on Loratadine and fertility are based on studies conducted overseas with improved pregnancy rate results in couples whose men took similar antihistamines.

no, I'm not. I'm Kristin with an I, not an e. I was Kristindoggirl on IG though (years ago before I became atomic sagebrush). I know Kristen personally though and she and I are of like minds in the swaying department on many things. :)

I did not see this post before.

I do not think this is something that applies to most men and I believe antihistamines tend to sway pink for most guys by thickening up the semen and making it less "sperm friendly" If a man was having low sperm count from autoimmune sources, then that woudl be a different scenario.

I better research lisinopril then....I hope it doesn't effect our sway!

yes it does tend to sway pink.

I did some research. I read that beta blockers, other blood pressure medications and calcium channel blockers affect sperm count if used for more than 5-10 years.

Interesting. Dh is on a calcium channel blocker, but it's only been about a year. He's on a bunch of others meds as well.
