Hamroun S et al for the GR2 Cohort showed that age HR 1.22 and use of NSAIDs HR 3.01 in the pre-conception period was associated with a longer time to conception in women with SpA. Research is needed on continuous NSAID use in the preconception period #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0153 https://t.co/hl6jUlK5PN
