Patient's question:
My cousin has been married for two years and has always wanted a child. However, she has had two miscarriages. My cousin has polycystic kidney disease. Despite constantly regulating her body and preparing for pregnancy, she hasn't been able to conceive. I would like to ask how polycystic kidney disease greatly affects fertility?Doctor's answer:
Polycystic kidney disease has a significant impact on women's ability to conceive. Polycystic kidney disease exhibits an anti-generational inheritance pattern, meaning the disease may be passed down to the next generation across generations. Additionally, polycystic kidney disease possesses an anti-generational inheritance pattern. Polycystic kidney disease can be accompanied by clinical symptoms such as polycystic pancreas or pluripotent stem cells. Long-term polycystic kidney disease can affect kidney function and also have a negative impact on fertility. Therefore, it is recommended that patients with polycystic kidney disease undergo thorough pre-pregnancy health check-ups to ensure healthy and optimal reproduction. In necessary cases, surgical treatment may be required.
