In a nutshell, YES. Brayden is a non salt waster, I took Dex during pregnancy. While a non salt waster may not be as severe.... virilization can still occur. From the article you showed..... "The simple virilizing form of CAH results in a moderate excess of androgen production with moderate masculinization of the external genitalia in females. Salt-losing CAH results in greater masculinization than simple-virilizing CAH due to greater production of androgens." Susan
