How long a woman can live with chronic nephritis is closely related to the type of renal pathology and the severity of the disease. For patients with relatively mild disease, clinically manifested only hematuria, proteinuria, but no renal function is impaired, and there is no obvious edema as well as elevated creatinine and urea, the disease can be completely controlled by medication, and the life expectancy of this kind of patients will not be affected, and they can live up to the average survival age of 73 years. If the kidney condition is very serious, there is a large proportion of glomerulosclerosis, loss of renal function, and there has been an increase in creatinine, urea, will be progressed to the uremia stage in a few years, once the uremia, it is necessary to carry out renal replacement therapy, hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, and the average survival period of about 15 years, so the chronic nephritis patients to the uremia, you can live for another 15 years. Usually, you should go to the hospital regularly for review and take medication regularly to prevent further damage of renal function.
