Re: Prenatal dexamethasone treatment for CAH

I have late-onset CAH and when I was preg. the doctors were concerned that I would effect a female by giving her to many male hormones. So I was given predisone to control my levels till we found it to be a boy. I know yours is different but I was on predisone for the first 14 weeks and my son is fine as far as the predisone is concerned. I have not had him tested yet to see if he will have late-onset. I found it interesting that I personally could make my female fetus have problems. I hope this helped even alittle. Take care and good luck I plan to start getting preg. again soon and I have three doctors the whole time. In my case they are mostly for me and one for the baby.
