Summary/Abstract: This paper wants to briefly review the available research on voice changes during pregnancy,to point out reasons why these changes could be subscribed to a voice disorder pathologyand the need for these patients to be taken in charge with a suitable therapeutic approach.The available research literature looks mainly into identifying and exposing evidence ofsymptoms and signs against the presence of voice disorder in pregnant women and focusespoorly on proposing a therapeutic approach for the identified voice disorder within thecontext of pregnancy. This period of altered physiology and anatomic changes within thebody of a pregnant woman is limited and transitory, most of times with no permanentvisible impact on voice. However, pregnant women may benefit of not only being informedand aware about this disorder, but also counseling or therapy with the purpose of managingtheir voice in an optimal way, so that they avoid possible permanent phonotrauma.
