What Causes Leaky Valve During Pregnancy?

Hello, well i've been suffering with a leaky valve and currently am pregnant also. I dont know exactly which valve it is but im worried because i lose my breath quick and my heart races and now that im pregnant its been racing even more. Is it better to have a c section or vaginal?

Hello ma'am and welcome.

In such a scenario a cardiologist should be consulted to decide on what is best at this juncture. But I would recommend a c-section, although I would feel safer with the suggestion of a cardiologist.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
