Abstract

If you have psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and are considering becoming pregnant, it is important to have a plan in place. While PsA may have some impact on pregnancy, research shows that there is a high chance of having a healthy pregnancy overall. It is recommended to talk to your doctor several months before trying to conceive to discuss medication safety and potential complications. Some medications may need to be switched or adjusted, and lifestyle changes such as exercise and managing stress can help alleviate symptoms. Overall, with proper care and planning, pregnancy with PsA can be successful. [Extracted from the article]
