“They may worsen, they may improve, or they might not change at all, and it really is patient-dependent.” —Dr. Lana Rosenfield
On this episode of The Allergist, Dr. Mariam Hanna welcomes Dr. Lana Rosenfield to unpack the complexities of managing allergic conditions during pregnancy and postpartum. With hormones shifting, the immune system recalibrating, and anxiety about medication safety running high, allergic disease can be especially tricky to manage during this time. Dr. Rosenfield offers practical insights for clinicians supporting pregnant patients with conditions like asthma, rhinitis, chronic urticaria, and food allergy, while navigating a landscape of limited data and heightened patient concerns.
On this episode:
Dr. Rosenfield emphasizes shared decision-making, lowest effective dosing, and the clinical resources she trusts when evidence is limited. It’s a thoughtful and clinically grounded conversation to support allergists managing allergic conditions through pregnancy and beyond.
