Can enlarged spleen and liver affect my pregnancy?

Question

Hi doctor,

I had a miscarriage 7 months ago. I have been trying to conceive since then. I consulted the doctor and was prescribed several tests. My USG report says that I have an enlarged spleen and liver. Also, my uterus is bulky. But the doctor advised me to try to conceive and prescribed some medicine. I bleed heavily during my periods.

Please help me and tell me if I can try to conceive with an enlarged spleen and liver.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The reason for the enlarged liver and spleen is going to be a different one and not related to pregnancy or conceiving. But it can affect. Consult a physician first. If he says you require treatment, then take it first and try to find the cause behind the enlargement.

Do a liver function test, hemogram, and other tests as asked by the doctor to find the cause. After that, you can try for pregnancy. With a bulky uterus, you will bleed more. But, probably it will come back to normal after a normal liver and spleen.

If you are bleeding more and it is affecting your health, then you have to take medicines for that. Do consult your physician with all the reports and with examination, things will become clear.
