Excerpt From NEJM
- Most patients are infertile, although spontaneous unassisted pregnancy has occurred. Therefore, the diagnosis should not be relied on as a birth control method.
- In spontaneous unassisted pregnancy, the risk of having an infant with Turner syndrome or Down syndrome is increased. Risk of miscarriage also is high.
- Pregnancy has been achieved by means of fresh or frozen embryo transfer. Transfer of only one embryo at a time is recommended to avoid additional complications of twin pregnancies.
- Prior to embryo transfer, a complete renal and cardiovascular evaluation is warranted, including echocardiography. Hypertension or other cardiovascular problems may complicate pregnancy, and careful follow-up care during pregnancy is needed. Thyroid status should also be assessed because hypothyroidism during pregnancy may be associated with a poorer outcome.
- Although implantation and clinical pregnancy rates are similar to other women with ovarian failure, the miscarriage rate is high, probably because of uterine factors.
- Caesarean delivery is usual and is possibly related to small pelvic outlet size.
