I respect that yes, Zoloft has risks. I'm a pharmacist and I can understand that. However, as a woman who has struggled with anxiety and depression, both pre-infertility and of course now with infertility, sometimes medication is a great help. It all depends on whether the benefits outweigh the risks.

Discuss this with your doctor (maybe you already have). Yes, the medication can be titrated down in the 3rd trimester, and your doctor can discuss this with you. Even if you remain on the medicine throughout your pregnancy, this can be best. It all depends on your situation. Good luck!
