Pregnancy in Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia

Over the last several decades, children with all forms of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) are identified early and treated appropriately throughout childhood. As adults, women with CAH may desire to become mothers and their usual chronic therapy and disease control is often inadequate for conception. Subsequently, little data exist on their management during pregnancy. Pregnancy in women with various forms of CAH is possible with appropriate treatment. Achieving pregnancy is more complex than disease management during pregnancy.
