Article Synopsis
- Successful liver transplantation can restore libido and fertility in women, but pregnancies after the procedure are considered high-risk due to increased complications.
- A 1978-2007 MEDLINE search explored the relationship between liver transplantation and pregnancy, concluding that there aren't formal guidelines but established "golden rules" can help improve outcomes.
- Recommended practices include delaying pregnancy for at least a year post-transplant, ensuring stable immunosupression, and involving a specialized obstetrics team to monitor maternal and fetal health effectively.
