In a recent interview, Selena Gomez, a well-known American female singer, revealed that she will never be able to have children due to physical reasons, which makes her feel very sad.
It is understood that in 2017, Selena revealed on social platforms that she had undergone a kidney transplant in order to treat lupus erythematosus.
Xiaoxiang Morning News reporter found out that Selena has been fighting lupus for several years. As early as 2013 and 2014, she canceled her "Stars Dance" tour due to health problems. She only announced her illness in October 2015: "I was diagnosed with lupus erythematosus and am undergoing treatment." In August 2016, she announced again that due to the anxiety caused by lupus erythematosus, she would temporarily leave the spotlight and focus on her career. healthy.
Systemic lupus erythematosus is a chronic autoimmune disease known as the "immortal cancer". This disease tends to occur in women of childbearing age. The prominent clinical features are the presence of a large number of autoantibodies in the patient's blood and multi-organ involvement. In addition to typical symptoms such as butterfly erythema on the face, fever, fatigue, joint pain, hair loss and other systemic symptoms may also occur. symptom. In addition, multiple organ systems such as the kidneys, lungs, digestive system, blood system, and nervous system may also be affected.
Wen Rui, director and chief physician of the Department of Nephrology and Rheumatology and Immunology at Changsha Central Hospital (Changsha Central Hospital Affiliated to Nanhua University), said that systemic lupus erythematosus is currently believed to be related to genetics, estrogen, environment and other factors, and is characterized by the production of self-targeting chemicals in the body. Antibodies to tissues and organs. "The manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus vary greatly, and some early manifestations are atypical, making it easy for patients to ignore them. It often develops to a more severe degree, and even accumulates multiple internal organs or multiple organs before the patient goes to the hospital for treatment." Wen Rui As a reminder, you must pay attention to identifying these early symptoms of systemic lupus erythematosus in order to achieve early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment. Initial symptoms include: fatigue and weakness; fever; pain in limb joints and muscles, which may also be symptoms of morning stiffness in joints; skin and mucous membrane problems, the most obvious of which is butterfly-like erythema on the cheeks and bridge of the nose; light sensitivity; weight changes, including weight loss Relief; occurrence of migraine, etc.
It is worth noting that lupus erythematosus itself does not affect the patient's fertility, but to avoid risks to the mother and fetus, it is necessary to plan the birth in advance, because many lupus erythematosus treatments are prohibited during pregnancy.
Most patients with systemic lupus erythematosus can safely conceive and give birth after the disease is controlled. If pregnancy is attempted after 6 months of disease cessation with pregnancy-appropriate medications and a preconception evaluation is performed, the pregnant patient should ideally continue to use pregnancy-appropriate medications and continue taking them during pregnancy.
However, if a patient with lupus erythematosus becomes pregnant while the disease activity is high (especially nephritis) or has severe associated insults (eg, pulmonary hypertension, cardiovascular disease), morbidity and mortality are higher, and fetal outcomes are poor.
In addition, lupus erythematosus itself is not a hereditary disease, but there is a certain genetic tendency, which is an issue that patients with lupus erythematosus need to consider. "In other words, if someone in the family has had lupus, then the child may be more likely to get it." Wen Rui said.
