Effect Of Scoliosis On Fertility And The Possibility Of Decreasing To The Fetus?

Hi Tya,

Thank you for asking HealthReplies.com.

In contrast to normal people whose spine appears straight when viewed from the back, scoliosis sufferers will experience an abnormal tilt in their spine, thus forming an inverted S or S shape. This condition is not directly related to fertility disorders. But indeed, mothers who suffer from scoliosis with moderate degrees (more than 25 degrees) to severe (more than 40 degrees), have a higher risk of causing their babies to also experience interference with the development of their bones, including the spine. This condition is not purely related to genetic factors (heredity), but rather due to pressure on the uterus due to pressure from bones or other organs.

Scoliosis can occur due to many factors, for example due to neuromuscular disorders (such as those experienced by sufferers of cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy), birth defects (ie associated with disorders of spinal development), to a history of infection or injury to the spine. Depending on the severity of your scoliosis, this condition can be treated with observation, physiotherapy, the use of special braces, or surgery. You should consult your condition directly with your doctor, orthopedic surgeon, or medical rehabilitation specialist in order to get the best treatment, including relating to your future pregnancy.

Hope this helps ...
