allergy medicines effecting fertility

My DH is on a million different creams for his face and body, plus numerous allergy medicines and nasal sprays. We are about to start injectibles and I really don't want to go through all this only to find that his meds made us less fertile. Does anyone have any info on this?

I haven't heard of anything like this. Have you done any research online or talked to your doctor? I was told that it was fine to take Clariton early in my pregnancy so I'm sure it's fine as an allergy medicine to take before conception as well. As for the skin creams and nasal sprays I'd ask someone like the urologist or RE about whether these can affect reproductive health.
