I think thats jumping a little ahead of time isn’t it and its foolish to speculate really when most women seem to be reporting that they are infertile anyway due to exposure to androgens in utero.anonymousSometimes it is not worth exchanging one set of symptoms in order to inflict another set on a child that possibly needn’t have had that exposure ANYWAY.
Time after time people get pregnant and expose their first child diagnosed with CAH to exposure to androgens willingly. However, in taking DEX it could also be said that we are exposing our children to that risk also unecessarily. Not that I oppose dex treatment---I feel it is a personal CHOICE. We must also not forget that in life we all have these choices to make and they are tough ones. Why make peoples decisions any harder by banging on about the effects of androgen when the effects of DEX for some children are just as damaging?
