A member asked:

Should be okay: Pregnancy typically is very forgiving to those with scoliosis. Chances are you should do fine. You should be evaluated prior to becoming pregnant, however.

Noroblem: The vast majority of patients who have scoliosis can have normal pregnancies. The one thing that is sometimes different is it can sometimes be technically difficult to get an epidural, particularly if you have a lot of rotation in your curve. Thank you for the question.
