Objective:
Multiple sclerosis (MS) preferentially affects females of reproductive age, making reproduction an important issue for women with MS. An increased incidence of poor labor progress often results in assisted vaginal delivery or a cesarean section. However, with good pre-pregnancy counseling and management, women with MS can conceive and give birth safely. Here, we present a case of pregnancy with MS, which was carried to term uneventfully and ended with unassisted vaginal delivery.
Case Report:
A 36-year-old woman was treated for MS for three years before she conceived. Because of her mild clinical presentation, medication was discontinued when her pregnancy was confirmed. Counseling was completed, and she had a smooth pregnancy course and gave birth vaginally at 38 weeks and two days.
Conclusion:
Based on this case report, women with mild clinical presentation of MS before pregnancy can conceive and carry successfully to term with no or improved disease presentation.
