The Detox Guide – Fertility

 

Fertility

Women using opiates may stop having periods – but they can still get pregnant.

If you start to cut down the amount of opiates you are taking, your level of fertility will probably increase and you may find that you have an increased desire to have sex. This means that you are more likely to get pregnant when you are detoxing.

So as well as protecting you from HIV, hepatitis and other infections, condoms can stop you getting pregnant – even when you aren’t having periods.
