Patient's question:
I am 53 years old. Recently, as I have gotten older, I have been experiencing leg pain. I have previously visited the immunology department, but the results were not significant. I have taken both Chinese and Western medicine, especially when the weather changes, I feel uncomfortable. Can connective tissue disease lead to miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Before the condition is under control, it is best not to have children. This situation is very likely to affect the growth and development of the fetus, which will greatly increase the risk of birth defects. After undergoing standardized and systematic treatment, if the woman's condition is effectively controlled, the condition is very stable, and she has been off medication for more than a year, then we can consider having children. To avoid unexpected incidents, it is best to undergo a comprehensive physical examination first to ensure the healthy growth of the fetus.
