Question
Diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome in April 2015, after treatment, the current indicators are generally normal. I hope to understand when it is appropriate to reconsider childbearing.
Answer
If the nephrotic syndrome has been stable for more than two years, with no hematuria and proteinuria (less than 0.5g per day), normal kidney function without hypertension or urinary tract infection, and confirmed by renal biopsy that the pathological type of nephritis is mild, pregnancy can still be considered. The pregnancy process may increase the pressure on the kidneys, so it is necessary to strengthen prenatal examinations and take medication under doctor’s guidance to control the symptoms, and terminate the pregnancy in a timely manner based on the fetus’s condition.
