Can Renal Cyst(kidney cyst) Female(Woman) Patients have a baby?

When female(woman) patients are diagnosed with Renal Cyst, many of them care about whether they can have a baby or not.

Before discussing the question about whether Renal Cyst female(woman) patients can have a baby or not, patients should know something about Renal Cyst. Renal Cyst is caused by the phenotype transformation of renal tubular epithelial cells(RTEC) and the secretion of it. When RTEC acts as cyst wall cell by phenotype transformation and secretes sac liquid, the persistent proliferation of RTEC causes obstruction of kidney tubules. As there is no passageway to discharge sac liquid, it accumulates in cyst. Consequently, the renal cyst can grow larger. If the renal cyst is large enough it can cause damage to kidney and lead to symptoms such as blood urine, edema, etc. Then, in which condition can Renal Cyst female(woman) patients have a baby?

When renal cyst is small, it will not produce much pressure to its surrounding tissues and patients can live with it. If there are no abnormality of renal function, female(woman) patients can have a baby, but they should take regular test to check up the development of renal cyst. Besides, they should also take other tests to insure it is proper for them to be pregnant such as blood pressure, urine test, etc.

However, when the renal cyst is large and other abnormality about renal function, female(woman) patients should not be pregnant because pregnant can aggravate the burden to kidney and lead to further damage to kidney or even causes Renal Insufficiency.

So whether Renal Cyst female(woman) patients can have a baby or not, they should take series tests to insure the condition for pregnant and avoid aggravating the burden to kidney or more serious kidney disease.
