Some autoimmune disease may subside temporarily during pregnancy, but will very likely worsen further after delivery. But if there is associated hypertension, or renal failure the likely hood of these worsening during pregnancy is high. There is an increased risk to the foetus also. The management has to individualised on case to case basis, as mentioned earlier.
