I was on doxycycline for skin treatment, a very low dose, and I got pregnant.
I am about 5 weeks pregnant. I have just completed a 10 day course of doxycycline. I am very concerned about how high the risk is for my baby. Does anyone have any information on this?
Now, we counted from the time she got her period (the effect of the ECP to the time where she should have a regular period) and the result was she is getting delayed, she is already on her 3rd day being delayed prior to that she is experiencing nausea for the past 2 days, however she also mentioned that she was taking doxycycline for her acne and i have read that it can cause some side effects including nausea.
Last Saturday, I started getting unprotected Fellatio (BJ) from a girl and stopped it within 60 seconds as I'm dating someone else and my conscious set in.
I received a call on Monday that I was positive for Lyme and I should start doxycycline 100mg 2x per day. So I started that course Monday evening.
It's my understanding that Herpes, Ghonorrhea and Syphillis are the biggest concerns with this behavior.
i was concerned that my infections didnt resolve it all because if i have been eating yogurt with it and not getting the most of my doxycycline would that also means that it didnt kill all the bacteria?
I am pregnant unknowingly, and I have taken Doxycycline Hyclate Tablets for 7 days, almost 32 pills. I am 37 years old and this is my first baby. Now, I am worried about the side effects on my baby. Can I keep pregnant or not?
Later I was given single dose of 1 gm ceftriaxone and 100 mg doxycycline. Although it gave me massive stomach upset and and caused me to have hemorroids and fissures, I completed the course. which did not give me 100% relief. I went to see the doctor again and I was on 2 gm ceftriaxone IV for three days. which certainly did not work. i still had all the symptoms.
finally Chlamydia was found out in culture test. Dr gave me 500 mg Azythromycin and 100 mg Doxycycline for 7 days.

Just like me, your doctor should have warned you not to get pregnant while on it, and mine never did! The possible side effects for tetracyclines are shortened limbs or blackening of the teeth when the child is older but the chances are veryyyy low because you are so early! I spent weeks worrying I hurt the baby but I took them early on too.
A month ago I had a staph infection which the dermatologist treated and gave me doxycycline to combat it. 5 days with the medication I started getting headaches/pressure daily, starting from the back and then making it's way to behind the eyes where it would stay for ~2-4 hours. Before bedtime the pressure would die down/not prevent me from sleeping and when I would wake up the pressure wouldn't come back till 3-4 hours later.
Doxycycline 100 mgm by mouth twice/day for 6 weeks and then once/day for 3-6 months is a common treatment of blepharitis and meibomian gland disease. It is not so much antibacterial as antiinflammatory and gets into the oild gland. That's the reason its also used for acne. There is a new product that is specific for blepharitis but I don't have the details or brand name. None of these cause floaters.
instead, i juz told her my prob and she diagnosed me wif oesophagus reflux(side effect of doxycycline) meanin the acid in my stomach traveled up to my esophagus causing irritation and prescibe me wif anacid.
i read somewhere that if i were to take doxycycline, i must not take anacid because it will lessen the effectiveness of doxycycline.
so, now i'm at a lost again..
either ceftriaxone (Rocephin) or doxycycline would abort incubating syphilis, and the two together guarantees syphilis would be eradicated.
I suggest you lay off the internet. You're obviously very anxious about all this, and in that state of mind you will only find information to inflame and prolong your fears. All is well; nothing bad is going to come from this.
Does it occur when you're breathing? Are you short of breath?
I was advised that women who have Lyme and are pregnant have to be taking an antibiotic which decreases the chances of the bacteria crossing the placenta. If you have Lyme and are pregnant and do not take antibiotics, I believe there is a 50% chance the baby will have it. However, you caught yours early so this may not be an issue, but it's good to be informed.
Hello,
Difficulty urinating in males can be due to urinary retention which can be due to enlarged prostate due to benign prostatic hypertrophy (often called BPH) or infection of the prostate( prostatitis), any blockage in the flow of urine like any scar tissue, injury (as in a car wreck or bad fall), blood clots, infection, tumors in the pelvic region, and stones, infection or due to disruption of the delicate and complex system of nerves that connects the urinary tract with the brain and the ne
see your doctor. and realize that you canNOT treat all STDs and that MDs do NOT have good tests for all STDs. some STDS we just call em when we see them. so they can say "i don't think you have herpes" but then you could have it. unless they do a blood test
and for men, then don't have a test for HPV...

I took Doxycycline for 10 days to treat a sinus infection. A week after finishing the Doxy I developed a sore throat and sore tongue. I'm assuming it is a reaction to the drug. How long will this stay in my system and is there anything I can take to alleviate the reaction?
