A member asked:
Lupus in pregnancy caused me similar symptoms as when not pregnant. isnt this a time of fewer problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sometimes: People with lupus can flare with pregnancy and in the past they were advised not to get pregnant. A cousin of lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, more often goes into remission with pregnancy. Unfortunately lupus usually has no such an association.
