" RA and pregnancy "

Excerpt:

Patients with RA must be monitored closely following delivery because

most are likely to have arthritis flare-ups during the postpartum

period.

Hyperprolactinemia has been associated with worsening of RA.11 Thus,

it is possible that breastfeeding may increase the likelihood of

arthritis flare-ups.
