To VALIUM or not to Valium???

Hi kittycat27-
I just wanted to let you know that your right that valium can relax the smooth muscles in the uterus but it really should be used as a last resort for relaxation during an ET. I would recommend using AP as an effective and safer alternative for relaxation instead- especially should you get a BFP. The ADEC classifies Valium as a category C drug- drugs which, owing to their pharmaceutical effects, have caused or may be suspected of causing, harmful effects on the human fetus or neonate without causing malformations. These effects may be reversible.
If it were me, I would not be comfortable taking valium, knowing I could potentially be pregnant in 2 weeks as the safety of valium in pregnancy has not been established. I realise you only intend to use it for your ET but again, if it were me, I wouldn't want any unnecessary drugs in my system at all but ultimately, it's your body and your decision. Perhaps you should ask your FS what he/she thinks. Anyway that's my humble opinion, I hope I have helped in some way and wishing you the very best of luck for your next FET.
