What if I have PV and become pregnant?

MPD-Support - FAQ's - PV
It is really important to discuss any plans of pregnancy with your haematologist, whether you are a man or woman. It seems unlikely that PV itself affects the ability to conceive, but some of the treatments we use can damage fertility, and if used in pregnancy, they can pose risks for the unborn baby. If anyone, whether a male or female is considering conceiving, they should not have take hydroxyurea, busulphan, or phosphorous within three months of conception.

Can you be pregnant and still have your period?

TCOYF Fertility FAQs
It's fairly unusual to be pregnant and still have a normal period. This is because the very thing that causes women to menstruate is the drop in progesterone that occurs only if fertilization does not happen. If a woman were pregnant, her progesterone levels would remain high, thus preventing her from having a period.
