What should i know about pyelonephritis while pregnant?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Preterm labor: Your chances of going into preterm labor are higher if you develop pyelonephritis so we treat it aggressively. Your doctor may put you on a daily suppressive antibiotic after you have been treated to prevent another episode from happening.

Cause and Treatment: It can be a serious problem that results in premature delivery or abortion. If you were told of this you should immediately contact your obstetrician.
