Can stress cause fibromyalgia during pregnancy?

Yes: Unfortunately, the truthful answer to the question is yet, but in many cases, we will see many women with fibromyalgia and certain other auto-immune disorders actually improve during their pregnancies. For unexplained reasons, joint pain, muscle pain, fatigue, and other symptoms can improve during pregnancy. However, there is a risk for a relapse in the post-partum time period.

Yes it can: Stress can also cause anxiety , depression and aggravate pain symptoms.

Stress: It can exacerbate symptoms of fibromyalgia.

Not stress: Stress won't cause fibro but it will agra ate it but there is an association with pregnancy likely due to musculoskeletal and hormonal changes. I have seen many cases after prolonged labor as well.
