We reviewed the subsequent pregnancy outcome in patients with partial mole, complete mole and persistent gestational trophoblastic tumor treated at the New England Trophoblastic Disease Center from June 1, 1965, to December 31, 1992. Such patients can be assured that they can anticipate a normal future reproductive outcome. However, when a patient has had a molar pregnancy, she is at increased risk (1%) of developing molar disease in a subsequent conception.
