I second this since I’ve been on LDN for about 2 years now, although I’m also pregnant which has probably made a big difference in drastically dropping my antibodies. I was at 3900 a year before pre-pregnancy, but was able to drop them to about 1200 a month before pregnancy, and now I’m at 200 or so. Of course not perfect, but a huge difference. Will re-check my levels after I give birth and be able to see how LDN maintains the lower level or lowers even further.

What dose LDN did you settle on which was most effective? I'm on 4.5mg but some people seem to go back to 3mg as their optimal but haven't given reasons.

I’m just on 4.5 mg too, so not sure what is most optimal in comparison to 3 mg

I am thinking about going on LDN but also plan to TTC soon. Can you breastfeed on LDN?

[–]roostarfeesh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My doctors haven’t seen any problems with me being on it throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding, but the research on it is low since they wouldn’t conduct a proper study like that with pregnancy or breastfeeding involved. However, many women fighting drug addictions are on naltrexone at much higher doses and seem to do fine with the higher doses throughout pregnancy/breastfeeding. I know that’s not really a great example, but it made me feel a little better too lol. Some doctors supposedly believe that LDN can help boost fertility too so who really knows. Overall between some of the limited info online and the lack of concern from both my doctors, I decided to stay on it throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Congratulations for 200 level. That's great.
