    Botox?

    Just a thought.....I have Botox twice a year, obviously not when I'm pregnant but when I will be ttc pink it will still be in my system......would this affect my sway at all?

    I doubt it would affect you either way.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    When Botox is injected into the skin, it may migrate up to 3 cm from where it was injected. Even if some molecules were to go into the blood****** and travel to distant sites in the body, the cosmetic doses (typically less than 100 units) used are significantly lower than the toxic dose that would be harmful systemically (2500-3000 units. Once the protein stops functioning at the neuromuscular junction, it is broken down into its harmless break-down components (amino acids) and either recycled for use in other proteins or excreted by the kidneys. I am not aware of any reports of liver or kidney toxicity with Botox.

    Botox is one of the most studied products. You're fine.
