Thanks for your response Brian.Went to see my eye specialist again,he was happy with the progress but prednisone hasn't been stopped.I have been asked to taper the dosage slowly by 5mg and leave it on 20mg till I see him again.I am still worried about my ability to conceive.When i did my search,looks like prednisone is use to cure fertility problems and surprisingly increases the chances of ability to conceive.Is this true?I also have hypothroid,so taking thyroxin tablets for few yrs.The blood test results have come out fine for my TSH and thyroid levels.Can I still conceive with all these problems.
