Does medicine Cabergoline/Dostinex sway?

[illinigirl]

Has anyone heard if the drug cabergoline or dostinex sway at all? I have to take the meds to reduce my prolactinoma so that I ovulate. Would love to know if it has any impact and if that means I have to update my swaying plan, and how?

thanks

It raises T levels and sways blue, but you can't avoid it if you need it in order to get pg.

I do not think you should take saw palmetto or vitex because they may interfere wtih the action of the dostinex.

Thanks atomic. So I think I am a BFN for this cycle. I started having bleeding gums while brushing, which for me I think is a sign of BFN.

So starting a new cycle, would you recommend any other tips and tricks since I'm already unfortunately swaying Blue due to my meds?

bleeding gums to me is a sign of pregnancy but you know your body best.

I would try to stick with just one attempt if possible. That seems to be yielding the best results.

UPDATED: We honestly do not even KNOW that testosterone in women sways. We have seen very good results for pink with Clomid that actually raises testosterone, and it very well may be that just like with men (when they artificially raise T levels by using steriods or similar medication) in women whose T levels are increased unnaturally via medications, that doesn't affect a sway even IF testosterone sways (again, totally unproven)

There has never been any study to show that this medication sways in any direction and anyone who needs to take it, you have to take it because you cannot conceive without getting the prolactin levels down.
