- Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological condition found in young women of reproductive age, and pregnancy can be a challenge. Lack of consensus on the conduct and impact of MS on pregnancy outcomes requires adequate counseling for these patients. Early initiation of treatment in MS to prevent long-term disability is extremely important because delaying treatment after the woman achieves irreversible complications may accompany reproductive goals. Aggression and disease progression requires an ideal schedule for conception. Initiation of treatment and successful pregnancy monitoring are clear goals of healthcare providers. Counseling of patients with MS before pregnancy, conduct during pregnancy, mode of delivery, and postpartum management, to which is added the choice of type of medication are important criteria that prevent complications secondary to the clinical course of this disease.
