Are the dexamethasone tablets meant to help get pregnant quickly or do they only have a limited effect on that?

Dr. med. Susanne Plotz

Dear inquirer,
I do not know why you are taking the Dexamethasone tablets, but they definitely have nothing to do with achieving pregnancy. Dexamethasone is a type of cortisone. It is used, for example, in severe infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases (such as rheumatism), in neurology (for example, in brain edema), to reduce inflammation and swelling of tissues. They are not suitable for quickly becoming pregnant.
Best regards and all the best,
