Whether women with glomerulonephritis is serious or not mainly depends on its cause, type of pathology, treatment effect, etc. and cannot be generalized. Usually there is no significant difference between men and women. Glomerulonephritis can be seen in acute glomerulonephritis, acute glomerulonephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis and so on.
1. Acute glomerulonephritis: Most acute glomerulonephritis is a self-limiting disease with a good prognosis and usually not serious. A few patients are left with sequelae such as urinary abnormalities and hypertension.
2. Acute glomerulonephritis: acute glomerulonephritis can be manifested as renal insufficiency in the early stage, and renal replacement therapy is needed if necessary, and if it is combined with heart failure, pulmonary hemorrhage and other serious complications, the patient’s mortality rate is higher and the condition is more serious.
3. Chronic glomerulonephritis: chronic glomerulonephritis, if the pathological type is light, such as membranous nephropathy, most of the patients can delay the progression of renal disease after active treatment, at this time is not serious; if the pathological type is heavy, such as membranous capillary glomerulonephritis, the treatment effect is not good, with the progression of the disease, it may be faster development of uremia, at this time is more serious.
When women suffer from glomerulonephritis, it is recommended to cooperate with the doctor in time for examination, to clarify the pathological type, and then carry out standardized treatment to prevent the condition from recurring and affecting the quality of life.
