The features of reproductive health in women with multiple sclerosis

Introduction. The incidence of multiple sclerosis (MS) is two times higher in women, and the debut of the disease falls on young reproductive age, which makes the problem urgent. Purpose: to assess the characteristics of the reproductive health of women with MS in different age periods. Material and...
