Hi, how are you doing?
I am sorry to hear that you are finding it difficult to become pregnant. Acriptega is not going to be the reason you are having this difficulty. There is no reason for you to stop taking your medication.
Acriptega does not effect fertility and it is safe to take before, during and after pregnancy. Even when breastfeeding. Taking Acriptega will even help as it keeps you healthy when trying for a baby.
How long have you been trying for a baby? and have you spoken to a doctor about this?

Hi Piliswa, great to hear that your HIV meds are working so well for your health. They will not affect the chance of becoming pregnant. Please talk to your doctor though as getting older make pregnancy much more difficult. Even if you cant become pregnant you can still be a mother to adopted children and perhaps think about this.

Hi Gift, congratulations on your pregnancy. These pills are not dangerous to your unborn child.
Acriptega is safe to take throughout your pregnancy and while breastfeeding. Acriptega is the best way to keep both you and baby healthy. Treatment will also reduce the risk of transmission to as low as possible.
It is safe to continue treatment.

Hi Kehinde, I am sorry to hear that your partner lost the pregnancy so early.
Acriptega will not have had any effect on this. It will also not effect your partners menstrual cycle.
As Acriptega will be keeping you healthy, it is only going to help with pregnancy and keeping both your partner and baby well. Have you been to see a doctor about this lost pregnancy?
