Ischemic Stroke in Young Women: Risk of Recurrence During Subsequent Pregnancies Neurol 55:269-274, Lamy,C. et al, 2000 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Young women with a history of ischemic stroke have a low risk of recurrence during subsequent pregnancies. The postpartum period, not the pregnancy itself, is associated with an increased risk of recurrent stroke. The outcome of pregnancies in these women appears to be similar to that expected in the general population. A previous ischemic stroke is not a contraindication to a subsequent pregnancy.
