Does Fibromyalgia And Lupus Affect Fertility?

Hi I am 31 yrs old and am struggling with Pots fibromialgia and lupas. I am in constantpain and depressed over the fact I mau never bare a child. I cant seem to get much info on the risks of childbirth with these coconditions. My fear is not so much focused on dying or habing complications with myself but more the repercussions on tbe baby. Can people with these issues who are severly affected by nueurological issues still have healthy babies. My fear is having an ill child ontop of my own ill health. Many thanks

Lupus definitely has effect on fertility but fibromyalgia will not . But with proper supervision and evaluation it is definitely possible for you to bear babies . Get antiphospholipid profile done which is very important . You will need to send me your entire history so that I can understand and help you out.
