A member asked:
Is lupus during pregnancy considered very serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: It can be serious on occasion. If your lupus was under good control before you pregnancy, odds are that you will do well during pregnancy. However; if lupus was very active or you have kidney involvement at the time of conception it can get worse. It is important to see your rheumatologist at once a trimester and in addition to see your ob, you may need to see a high risk OB expert.
