Is it okay to procreate if i have mild heart failure and duchenne muscular dystrophy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Please check...: With your doctor if your degree of heart failure is safe for sexual activity, or even taking care of a child! given your age, it appears you have done remarkably well with a diagnosis of duchenne's md. However, please keep in mind that if you and your partner have a girl, she will automatically be a carrier of the disease.
