A Monash University-led study published in JAMA Network Open was the first to examine the impact of pregnancy on multiple sclerosis (MS) relapse activity and long-term disability progression in women with moderate to severe disability. Most previous research has focused on women with mild MS-related disability.
Similar to findings in women with minimal disability, MS relapse rates decrease during pregnancy and increase in the first three months postpartum in women with more significant MS disability. Pregnancy does not worsen long-term disability outcomes in this population.
