Abstract
The presence of glomerular diseases in pregnancy presents challenges to both patients and nephrologists. The preconception planning in patients with kidney disease involves comprehensive stratification, treatment optimization, and comorbidity assessment, requiring nephrologists to engage in well-informed decision-making processes alongside their patients. There is a necessity for a multidisciplinary approach to meet their complex healthcare needs. Effective control of blood pressure, proteinuria, and disease activity are pivotal in mitigating adverse pregnancy events. This comprehensive review intends to equip nephrologists with the requisite knowledge and understanding to navigate the intricate landscape of glomerular diseases in pregnancy. It delves into the challenges associated with the diagnosis of glomerular diseases, the significance of preconception counseling, and the nuances of antenatal and postnatal care. Additionally, the article provides insights into the management and prognosis of glomerular diseases, shedding light on the judicious use of immunosuppression as a therapeutic tool.
