The study found that pregnancy does not worsen HAM symptoms, and HAM does not affect pregnancy outcomes. Therefore, women with HAM/TSP, even those who use wheelchairs, should not be discouraged from getting pregnant.
Pregnancy was not associated with deterioration of HAM nor was HAM associated with adverse pregnancy outcome in this case. These findings suggest that women with HAM/TSP, even those who use a wheelchair, should not be discouraged from pregnancy.
