Can I get pregnant if I have cervical spondylosis?

Cervical spondylosis does not usually directly affect pregnancy, but if the condition is severe or there is nerve compression, prompt medical evaluation should be sought to ensure maternal health and fetal safety during pregnancy.

Cervical spondylosis is a common degenerative osteoarthritis, which is mainly manifested by neck pain and stiffness, which may be accompanied by dizziness, arm numbness and other symptoms. These symptoms themselves do not directly hinder pregnancy, but during pregnancy, the hormone levels and body shape changes of pregnant women may increase the pressure on the cervical spine, thereby aggravating discomfort. If bone hyperplasia compresses the nerves or vertebral arteries, it may cause poor blood circulation, worsen dizziness, and even affect the quality of life. Some drugs for the treatment of bone hyperplasia, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and steroids, may be contraindicated during pregnancy, so the plan needs to be adjusted in advance.

Women who are planning to get pregnant and have obvious symptoms of cervical spondylosis should undergo a comprehensive examination before pregnancy, and if necessary, physical therapy, traction therapy, medication adjustment, etc. can be used to relieve symptoms. Mild patients can reduce cervical pressure by improving posture and exercising appropriately. Avoid bowing your head and sitting for long periods of time during pregnancy, and use professional maternity pillows and neck pillows to relieve the burden on your neck. If symptoms worsen, choose a safe physical therapy method as recommended by your doctor, and ensure that changes in the condition are monitored during pregnancy.
