The author presents an overview of investigations from the second half of this century concernedwith the mutual relationship of pregnancy and multiple sclerosis. Their results suggest thatthe period of gestation is a time of reduced activity of the disease, while the post-partum period,in particular the first three months, are associated with a high risk of exacerbation of multiplesclerosis. The long-term prognosis of multiple sclerosis does not deteriorate as a result ofpregnancy and delivery.
Key words: multiple sclerosis - pregnancy - relapse - immunosuppression.
