How long after suffering from nephrotic syndrome can one have children?

Patient's question:

My wife was diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome in April 2015. After hospitalization and medication treatment, her are still relatively normal now. Recently, she is considering having another child.

Doctor's answer:

Nephrotic syndrome has been stable for over two years, with no hematuria or proteinuria below 0.5g per day in the past two years; renal function is normal, without hypertension, without second-degree neuron urinary tract infection. After a thorough renal biopsy, it was confirmed that the pathology type of the nephritis received is relatively mild, making pregnancy possible. However, pregnancy is a process that increases renal pressure, so the kidney disease is likely to recur. Therefore, during pregnancy, it is necessary to enhance prenatal examinations and use medication under the guidance of a doctor to suppress the condition. Depending on the condition of the fetus, early pregnancy may need to be terminated in a timely manner.
