History of Infectious Diseases in Pregnancy

Louis Buttino, Jr. and Norbert Gleicher

The control of fertility in the female with medical disease has attracted only limited attention in the medical literature. The occurence of a medically contraindicated pregnancy, for example, in cases of maternal cardiac disease, represents a failure of the medical community to appropriately counsel and treat. However, the same also applies to other medical disorders affecting women during their reproductive years. Although medical texts frequently address the possibility of terminiation in medically contraindicated pregnancies, only limited reference is made to the far more important apspects of preconceptional counseling. Correct family planning advice to female with medical disease is important. It has to include discussions of contraindications of pregnancy and the particular choice of a contraceptive in the presence of a specific disease situation. Good medical care in very early gestation may be of particular importance in certain diseases because it may prevent injury to the fetus. Consequently, planned conception in patients with medical disease will often improve maternal as well as fetal outcome.
