Abstract Women having congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) owing to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, especially those with salt-losing type, have decreased fertility rates. With advances in genital reconstruction, reproductive medicine and optimisation of antenatal care for this group of patients, more documented successful pregnancies have been reported. We report a Chinese woman with classical salt-losing type of CAH who has successfully delivered a normal baby girl. Keyword : Adrenal hyperplasia; Congenital; Pregnancy
