Diabetes insipidus and pregnancy?

I was diagnosed with diabetes inspidus when I was about 3yrs old. I'm 20 now so DI has pretty much been a big (but routine) part of my life. Now that I am sexually active, I've wondered if there are things about sex/pregnancy I should consider because I have DI... like whether or not it's even advisable that I have kids in the future, etc.

I know I should probably ask a doctor about this, but I thought I'd get a public opinion first. It's less formal =)

Diabetes insipidus has nothing to do with diabetes. Diabetes insipidus causes my body to not retain water. So if I don't take my medication, whatever fluids I drink will be flushed out of my system within 30min-1hr.

I wouldn't think you would have a problem with it. I'm not certain which form of DI you have, but I'll assume it's central DI and you're taking a synthetic form of vasopressin for it. I believe that your dose of medication may be increased if you become pregnant, but I believe that becoming pregnant would be safe.

Of course, you want to speak with your doctor about any special precautions that you may have to take. But I think if you keep up with your medication and fluid intake, you should be okay.

You must talk to a few doctors before considering pregnancy.
Diabetes affects the mother and child.

I have DI and I asked my doctor the same thing (not that i want kids-im only 16) but i dont think it affects ur child, however im not 100% sure. Go online and check it out.
