Hi I suffered two strokes from a AVM and physical abuse. I am 27 and really want a baby. What are my risks and should I worry? Please help Dr. B

Hi there,
If the arteriovenous malformation has been treated and there were no complications and you have no other fertility problems, then you will most likely conceive in a healthy way. You may need to discuss with your gynecologist about the medications if you have been taking and any other associated medical problem. Be in regular follow up of your doctor. Do write to me again.
Best luck and regards!
Thank You so much for your reply. You took stress off me and put hope in my heart. I do suffer epilepsy from my accident I do no I will not be on those medicines which give me more risks if im right.
