no, the worst it can do is cause tooth discoloration. and that usually happens when you take it during the third trimester. i wouldn’t recommend using it for long periods of time. it can cause your hair to fall out.
depends what it is for.. if its for something necessary then i would say go ahead for acne and ur trying to conceive.. if i were u i wouldnt take it if i found out i was pregnant.. for now its ok.. heres a link hope it helps.. good luck

Omgosh, I took doxycycline for my acne, (I don’t know what you are taking it for) but on the label of the orange can, it says DO NOT TAKE IF PREGNANT! Get off Doxy. ASAP!!
Yes, it can harm the baby. It is a FDA Class D drug, meaning that there is positive evidence of fetal risks. Here is a link that will go into detail about the risks…. (and don’t forget that you may not always find out that you are pregnant right away, it *could* be possible that you find out too late…it is always better to be safe than sorry)
