Abstract
Clinicians may be consulted on the advisability of conception, or continuing a pregnancy, in women with renal problems and advice is too often based on anecdotal clinical experience. To give sound advice the clinician must appreciate that a pregnant woman is physiologically different from a non-pregnant individual and that during pregnancy there are progressive changes in the renal system which must be understood if we are to detect, diagnose and manage disease.
