Does systemic lupus erythematosus affect pregnancy attempts?

Two

1.
For women of childbearing age with SLE, if the condition is stable for at least 6 months, there is no damage to important organs, and the potentially teratogenic drugs are discontinued to a safe enough time, pregnancy can be considered
.

2.
If you plan to become pregnant, you should consult with rheumatology and immunology and obstetricians and gynecologists before pregnancy and conduct relevant assessments
.

3.
For pregnant SLE patients, SLE disease activity and fetal growth and development should be closely
monitored.

4.
If there are no contraindications, it is recommended to take hydroxychloroquine throughout pregnancy, and if there is disease activity, you can consider the use of hormones and azathioprine to control the disease
.

5.
The use of azathioprine during pregnancy in SLE patients will not cause fetal teratogenicity, and can reduce the risk of disease recurrence and improve fetal outcomes
.

6.
Hydroxychloroquine, hormones, azathioprine, cyclosporine A and tacrolimus can be used to prevent or control SLE recurrence during pregnancy, but mycophenolate mofetil, cyclophosphamide, leflunomide and methotrexate should not be used
.

Patients with SLE perigestational capacity is not affected by disease, but there is a risk of poor pregnancy outcome and planned pregnancy
should be on medical advice.
