A member asked:

What are dangers of conceiving if one has lupus anticoagulant and pcos?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Danger small but ...: Pcos makes becoming pregnant difficult without treatment; pregnancy is usually ok though excess weight raises risk mildly; lupus anticoagulant requires careful study and may raise the risk of late miscarriage and require special treatment throughout pregnancy.
