Hi,

I have been on Cipro on and off since about 1993. My wife and I have three children. The oldest boy was conceived prior to the heavy Cipro dosis. We than had 2 daughters, One in 1994 and one in 1996 after bladderneck and prostate surgery.
I'm not aware of any problems related to Cipro.

God bless,

Ron
