In the past few years, an increasing number of dystonic patients, of both sexes, have undergone insertion of deep brain stimulators (DBS) with consistent improvement of their symptoms and enhancement of their quality of life. We describe 3 women with dystonia who, after insertion of bilateral globus pallidus internus stimulators, succeeded in conceiving and completing pregnancies, 2 of them having married. These histories illustrate the significant positive impact that DBS can have on women's social relationships. Based on this experience, we also provide an overview of some of the issues that might arise in pregnancy and during delivery in dystonic women with an in situ deep brain stimulator.
