Can MDS patients have children?
Most cases of myelodysplastic syndrome will occur in the elderly, but in recent years, the disease has gradually spread to young people. During illness, especially when women are faced with real problems such as marriage and childbirth, many people will pay attention to the genetic problems of myelodysplastic syndrome. The popular question is, can myelodysplastic syndrome have children? At present, myelodysplastic syndrome is considered to be a hematopoietic dysfunction caused by abnormal proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells. The main manifestations are pancytopenia in peripheral blood, proliferation of bone marrow cells and abnormal morphology of mature and immature cells, which is pathological hematopoiesis. Some patients will become acute leukemia after MDS for a certain period of time. Some died of infection, bleeding or other reasons, and never turned into acute leukemia during the course of the disease. Many people are concerned about whether patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) can have children. In fact, they understand the mentality of female patients. After all, malignant diseases such as leukemia are the biggest killers of malignant diseases among young people. In this period, women, in particular, have to face very realistic problems such as getting married and having children. Shijiazhuang Red Cross Zhikui Hospital: It is best for patients with hematological diseases such as myelodysplastic syndrome not to choose pregnancy during treatment and when the cure is unstable. After all, pregnancy is a special physiological activity, which requires the body to have a strong energy metabolism and blood regeneration system and organs with strong compensatory functions such as heart, lung and liver to support a powerful new life. However, the mother of myelodysplastic syndrome is in a state of continuous metabolic consumption. Coupled with the toxic effects of chemotherapy drugs on heart, liver, kidney, stomach, intestine and other organs, it is difficult for the body to bear the heavy responsibility of pregnancy. Even if the pregnancy is successful, MDS will still pose a threat to the lives of mothers and children because of its infection and bleeding tendency. For the fetus, the embryo is a newly sprouted seedling. Without fertile "soil" and sunlight, it cannot grow healthily. In the mother of leukemia, embryos always compete with leukemia cells for nutrition and are attacked by leukemia cells and eroded by chemotherapy drugs. It grows very slowly, and some will be deformed, suffer from congenital leukemia or die. Therefore, it is best for MDS patients to treat the disease before delivery. After years of experience, Dean Yuan and his parents of Shijiazhuang Red Cross Zhikui Hospital summed up a set of treatment scheme for mds, and gave a combination of various traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, such as invigorating spleen and kidney, nourishing liver and kidney, invigorating qi and nourishing blood, clearing marrow, clearing away heat and toxic materials, cooling blood and stopping bleeding, in order to improve patients' physique and bone marrow hematopoietic function. It has the pharmacological characteristics of multi-level, multi-target and multi-effect, and provides the possibility for the treatment of mds with various pathological mechanisms.
