Hey, im 17 years old and im a female and i have autoimmune disease well the disease itself is still undetermined but my skin has been really bad because i also have alergies, so i was prescribed a medicine called myfortic which i search at internet contains mycophenolate sodium and the doctor told me to take twice daily with a dosage of 180 mg each take, now what i was thinking of is that im 17 now and im not thinking of having a child in the nearest years, maybe another 9-10 years i would love to have children of my own not what i was thinking, does this medicine affect the chances of me being pregnant or fertile ? Or even cause any problem towards my uterus ? Im just scared cause i dont want it to ruin anything in the future and fyi my ANA is 1:1000

This is a kind of conversation you will probably need to have with your prescribing physician or specialist. We're not qualified to have this kind of discussion with you about decisions about the treatment of your disease or what impacts your medications and their specific dosage could have.

The best we can do is to do the kind of general search about this medication you could do yourself, places like this: https://www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-7866 ... al/details I don't see anything there to indicate this medication has any impact on fertility.

It's totally fine to have questions like this, many people do, so why don't you ask your doctor about it the next time you see them? Or, you could call in and ask for a consult about this that way.
