Can steroid use affect a baby if the baby is conceived during a steroid cycle?

Hello Ma'am,

Yes, I can confirm that it can have an impact on a child's development, as much when it is the dad taking it as when it is the mom.

Of course, the effects on the body's diminished ability to conceive a baby when the dad is on steroids are well known. It is now known that the effects are much greater than just on the decreased ability to conceive however, without being able to determine with certainty the full impact.

So the best thing to do is to abstain.

True to your pleasure,
