How does degenerative spondylolisthesis affect pregnancy?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It does not: Degenerative spondylolisthesis usually is not seen before age 50. While is rarely occurs earlier, it should have no direct affect on pregnancy.

Back ache: The junction of the low spine and pelvis is vulnerable to slipping. This is worse with obesity and pregnancy. The pregnancy may progress normally and delivery can be regular vaginal. But severe low back pain may make the pregnsncy very problematic. Work on posture and core strengthening and relaxation.
