Thrombocytopenia (ITP) and pregnancy?

Hi, I would just like to know of any women who have ITP and are or were pregnant. Were there any complications? What medicines are new on the market? I have been in remission for almost 10 years post-splenectomy. What, if any, are the risks of relapse if I get pregnant and how might it affect my baby?

Idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura is the result of hyperspenism and removing the spleen cures it. I see no reason to fear a relapse during pregnancy or any problem with the baby. MD
