What’s the deal with T and pregnancy?

Someone asked us:

If I take testosterone (as a trans man) could I still get pregnant and carry a child to term?

Yup, you can definitely get pregnant. While taking testosterone can have an impact on fertility, it’s not birth control, so pregnancy is definitely still possible as long as you still have your uterus and ovaries.

If you get pregnant while you’re taking testosterone, contact your doctor or nurse right away. If you want to carry the pregnancy to term, you’ll need to stop taking testosterone until after you give birth.  

If you’re taking testosterone and you know you want to become pregnant, tell your nurse or doctor  so you can get the healthiest start to your babymakin’. They can help you come up with a plan to prepare for pregnancy.

Don’t believe every worried thought you have. Worried thoughts are notoriously inaccurate.
