Conversely, while newly approved HS medications such as secukinumab and bimekizumab show promise for the general population, further research is necessary to evaluate their safety profiles in pregnant and breastfeeding individuals. The scant research available on HS in pregnant and lactating women, also shown by our systematic literature review, highlights the need for a comprehensive investigation into the safety, efficacy, and suitability of management strategies.
