We're in the conceiving phase and right now ive caught a bad cough that's not going away. Im worried whether having a cough or coughing a lot affects conception in any way. Probably a silly doubt but its on my mind.
A normal cough wont affect your chances of conceiving, dont worry about that. But dont take any random cough syrup if you are trying or might be pregnant, ask the doctor first which one is safe.
I was also worried about this while we were ttc. From what I understood a simple cough is fine, the main thing is to avoid medicines that arent pregnancy safe. I just stuck to warm water and honey.
I cant say medically but when I was trying I had a cough too and it made no difference to getting pregnant. I just avoided tablets and asked the doctor before taking anything. Thats all I did.
Beta a small cough does no harm to conceiving. For relief warm water with a little honey and tulsi is safe. But if the cough is deep or with fever, then show the doctor, dont take medicine on your own.
