Does pregnancy-related kidney disease have a significant impact on children?

Patient's question:

I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here for consultation. Could you please tell me if kidney disease during pregnancy has a significant impact on the child?

Doctor's answer:

The impact of kidney disease during pregnancy on the child is quite significant. If a pregnant woman develops nephritis, it is essential to receive timely treatment. Treatment involves medication, and the use of any medication can have numerous effects on the fetus. Additionally, pregnancy leads to an increase in the breakdown of metabolic products in both the mother and the fetus, exacerbating kidney pressure. From the perspective of promoting healthy reproduction, it is not advisable to carry the pregnancy to term. If the woman insists on keeping the child, then thorough prenatal examinations throughout the pregnancy must be conducted.
