We are planning to start ttc in the immediate future, and I'm just wondering what to do first to prepare my body. I am currently taking birth control (Triphasil - I finish my current pack this weekend) and I understand I should be off of it for at least 3 months before we start trying. I also take Amytriptalene (30mg/day) to manage persistant headaches. Does anyone know if I should be off it as well before shooting for conception? Any other suggestions of things to take or not? Thanks!
Go see your doctor and explain you are wanting to start ttc. Ask about your med because he/she can tell you if it is safe or not. Your doctor can do a preconception check up on and answer other questions you may have.
Second make sure you are taking a multi-vitamin that has folic acid in it or take a prenatal vitamin. You need to be taking it at the very least a month before you start ttc.
