instruction: hello doctor I am 38 years old and I have been taking high and anavar for six months for my training and weightlifting I am also single and had no plans for ever getting pregnant but I am now weeks pregnant and do not know a safe way to get off the gh I was taking iu a day I am not sure if it contributed to me getting pregnant as previously I have had two miscarriages and an ectopic pregnancy when I was married two years ago I have stopped the anavar as soon as I found out what is the best way to come off gh shall I just stop or do I need to wean off of it I am worried if I just stop my body would not produce for a while and it will cause pregnancy at a risk to survive
output: hello congratulations on your pregnancy and on having escaped literally in the nick of time from the potential risks of anavar contains oxandrolone which is a male hormone derivative if taken inadvertently during pregnancy then it causes virilization masculinization of the female fetus it takes a few days to metabolize form the body so I recommend you to stop both with immediate effect and start on folic acid supplementation sooner the gestation is only weeks as on date and the fetal pole has not yet arrived if you do not stop then there are high chances of you getting an anembryonic pregnancy which is pregnancy without a fetal pole or a chemical pregnancy which can be confirmed only after two weeks with a scan to check if fetal heart rate has arrived or not it would confirm if the pregnancy is viable or not if no heartbeat then there are chances that it may have been affected by the effects of anavar and high growth hormones and hence non viable avoid exposure to any teratogen during the length of the pregnancy
