I was wondering the risk of getting pregnant and how it would effect me or the baby. i know i need to speak to my personal doctors about this but was just wondering ya'lls advice on it. thank you
Hi , How are you doing ? Prune belly has a defect of Abdominal wall & urinary tract. So the chances of pregnancy is not much affected. Before trying for pregnancy, do have an evaluation of Renal function , as the functioning of kidney is affected by pregnancy. Have an ultrasound or MRI to evaluate any congenital problems in uterus , which may need treatment before or during pregnancy. There could always be variations in presentation. If all these are normal I don't think you will have any problem with pregnancy Hope I have clarified your queries All the best Dr.Balakrishnan
