Risks Of Pregnancy With One Kidney

Pregnancy is higher risk when you have one kidney. There are increased risks of hypertension (high-blood pressure) and fetal growth restriction (smaller baby). Women with one kidney who are considering tubal reversal vs IVF should be aware of these risks when considering pregnancy. The risks are similar no matter what treatment is being pursued but careful follow-up with a high-risk obstetrician should help minimize the risk to mom and baby. The reversal specialists of Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center share a case study about a woman who donated a kidney, had successful reversal of tubes, and experienced a completely normal pregnancy with a healthy baby girl to show for her efforts.
